While it looked like Mark was just going to pursue a solo career for some time -- it now appears he has a new band, which also features ex-Idlewild bassist Gavin Fox and Paul Binzer Brennan on drums. The name? Concerto for Constantine.

 

There are no songs on the band's official MySpace just yet, but they have at least vague plans to tour Ireland in November.

 

I'm fairly certain this is the high point of my day. Possibly the week, especially if they post some new songs!
