Damon said: "I wanted to make sure that it came out at the end of the tour because I don't want anyone to think I'd tampered with it."

The former Blur frontman added: "If I left it until the New Year to release it then the cynics out there would say, 'Oh well, it's been tampered with', but if I put it out now they'd know that I haven't done anything because I've been on tour ever since."

Albarn also recently admitted that he could "retire" Gorillaz after their world tour, claiming that he will "see how he feels" in January to determine their future.
