The band have now paid tribute to the drummer and broadcaster, looking back on his life in new song 'Before Anyone Knew Our Name', taken from upcoming album 'Scream Above The Sounds'.
Jones has spent years coming to terms with Cable's death, and worried that the subject would have been 'too personal' to put on the new record.
But after being inspired, he said “it was obviously meant to come out in some way or other”.
He added: “It was an experience for me, I guess – I was very vulnerable. It was very personal and I wasn’t very keen about putting it on the record because it’s probably too personal. The boys heard it, the managers heard it, the booking agents heard it; they all knew Stuart and they all felt it should be part of the record.”
