Reverting to the Burchill/Kerr/Gaynor/Duffy line-up, Simple Minds recorded a new studio album, Graffiti Soul, which was released on 25 May 2009.On Sunday, 31 May 2009, the album entered the UK Album chart at #10, becoming Simple Minds first album in 14 years to enter the UK Top 10. The album also entered European Top 100 Album chart at #9. The band was expected to play a handful of gigs between October and December 2010[18] but gave only two shows: a mini-concert on 2 October 2010 at the Cash For Kids Ball organised by Radio Clyde at the Hilton in Glasgow, UK and a full-length concert on 10 December, 2010 at the Festhalle in Bern, Switzerland. In early October 2010 Simple Minds completed four weeks in London's Sphere Recording studios during which four songs were recorded and mixed. According to Simple Minds' official web site, two of the tracks might feature in an extensive compilation to be released in early 2011. The two others might be the first tracks for what will eventually become the Simple Minds 16th studio album of original compositions due to be released in 2012.
