ASH - IS THE WORLD BORED OF ASH?

ASH frontman TIM WHEELER is concerned about the future of the Northern Irish band after declaring fans have become "jaded" with the group. The group - comprising of Wheeler, bassist MARK HAMILTON and drummer RICK MCMURRAY - started a new phase of the band last year (06) following the departure of guitarist CHARLOTTE HATHERLEY. Wheeler says, "I think we're totally underrated. That's really annoying. I think it's because we've been around so long. People get jaded." Ash have been working hard on their fifth record due out July this year (07) and our hoping that this will catapult them back to the top, where they feel they belong.
