‘Paper Gods’ is Duran Duran’s 14th album. The Beatles only made 12. “We will never win an argument when you compare us to them,” he laughs.

It has been five years since the last Duran Duran album and John is excited about the new one. Nile Rodgers is back producing, Mark Ronson helps out, there are a stack of special guests and Taylor feels good about ‘Paper Gods’ ahead of the next world tour.

Prior to the release, John spoke with Noise11.com’s Paul Cashmere.
