Roddy Woomble has quashed rumours that Idlewild will split at the end of their current UK tour.
The singer claims that, despite releasing two best of collections last month, they have no plans to break up and are already looking forward to working on their seventh studio album together.
Woomble wrote on his MySpace blog: "There's been some talk and worry amongst Idlewild fans about us calling it a day after this 'best of' album and tour.
"The reality is that there's nothing the five of us like doing more than writing songs together and performing them. Our records might not sell as many copies as they used to (although they do sell well still) but I don't think that's because they aren't as good.
"I'm of the opinion that we're getting better at describing ourselves, and writing more interesting songs the longer we go on.
"So no, we're not 'splitting up', the opposite in fact, we're playing Edinburgh's Hogmanay in December then getting to work on our seventh album."
