 Blur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blur were one of the British bands who appeared in the wake of the Stone Roses 's eponymous album, mixing psychedelic pop rock with very loud guitars.
Another Gorillaz album was released in May 2005 ( Demon Days).
Blur released " Country House ", the first single from their new album, in August amidst media attention, as Albarn had requested the single's release moved up a week to compete with the release of "Roll With It," a new single from Blur's chief rivals, Oasis.

Second album "Modern Life Is Rubbish" reintroduced the idea that specifically English rock music could be cool, and by the time their third album, the legendary "Parklife", emerged on 25 April, 1994, the rest of the UK had caught up.
While defying the rumours that it would be either 1) their "dance" album or 2) their "world music" album, it is their grooviest so far, with an eclectic variety of rhythms and textures underpinning melodies to melt the heart and wobble the lower lip.
Debut album "Leisure" announced the arrival of a spunky, inventive new band with pop suss warped by art-punk eccentricity.

 13 by Blur: Album Reviews
Blur : Albums : 13 : Album Reviews
Musically, the saddest songs on 13 are also the clearest, mixing electronic and acoustic elements in sleek but heartfelt harmony.
Building on Blur's un-pop experiments, the group's ambitions to expand their musical and emotional horizons result in a half-baked baker's dozen of songs, featuring some of their most creative peaks and self-indulgent valleys.

 BBC - Rock & Alt Review - Blur, Think Tank
I listened to this album and really liked 'out of time', but that was it; I was singularly unimpressed with the rest of the album.
The album was produced in recording studios in London, Morocco and Devon.
This Blur album reminds me of both and I'm already labelling it 'the album of the year'.

The album that solidified this position was 1994’s Parklife.
I attribute that label to the fact that the album was a watershed for Brit-Pop as a whole.
Parklife is widely recognized as the career-defining album for Blur.

 Amazon.co.uk: Music: The Best of Blur
Blur: The Best Of is a rather misleading title as this album is infact just a compilation of all of their singles up to and including Music Is My Radar.
This album is just about the the best of Brit Pop.
This is meant to be a crossover album that appeals to people who have always quite liked Blur, quite liked their singles, but not enough to buy all their albums, just like myself who happens to love this album.

 Blur Album Reviews
OK, it was an overproduced album, but I consider that a part of the package.
Robinson’s Quango” sounds as directionless as its album counterpart.
It’s not an album that hits you in the gut and it isn’t a virtuoso pièce de résistance that leaves you behind baffled either.

 hip online: artists: blur
That voice, and the voice of the band as a unit, was first heard on the album Blur released in 1997.
Blur is an abrasive but oddly attractive record that added some great new songs to the Blur canon, not least the anthemic "Song 2" and the mysterious "Strange News From Another Star" as well as a first solo foray on a Blur album from Graham, the cracked and melancholy "You're So Great."
That process, begun on the 1997 Blur album, has now reached its apotheosis on the new album 13.

 Blur (album) - Enpsychlopedia
Blur is the fifth album by Blur, first release in 1997.
The extreme lo-fi recording of the track is typical of songs on Coxon's first solo albums.
The album's style was a result of them dropping the Britpop direction that had suddenly become unhip in the wake of The Great Escape ' s release and turning on to lo-fi indie recordings (at Coxon 's urging).

 Blur Album Reviews
Blur is one of the most interesting bands of the past ten years (British or American), and since their entertaining but inconsistent albums have always been highlighted by their singles, it would stand to reason that The Best Of Blur would indeed be just that.
"Trimm Trabb" is one of the album's better songs, and one of the more experimental ones at that, whereas other atypical Blur songs, particularly in the album's mid-section, coast on atmosphere alone.
This album continues in the same dreary direction as the last album, only Blur forgot to write actual songs this time, as 13 is primarily comprised of atmospheric mood pieces and lo-fi Americanized rockers seemingly bashed out on the spot.

 the-scene: Blur and Graham Coxon
Blur was released after the battle of the bands with Oasis.
It was an album that stank of Stone Roses and Pink Floyd.
For this album they opted to have Madonna producer William Orbit produce the album.

 CD Review: Blur, Self-Titled
Blur could have ended up being Parklife Volume 3 ; instead, the band has realized that they owe it to their own sanity to make an album that marches to the beat of its own drum.
Be prepared, then, to hate this album the first time you listen to it.
These songs don't, however, sit well with the rest of the album, and compared to the band's past gems, they don't even seem that good at all.

 Adrian's Album Reviews : Blur
But what makes it one of my favorite albums is that it is an album, each track leads to the other.
Blur was one of the few bands I counted on to release reliably good and quirky rock music, and then they got all experimental.
Blur survive a flop fourth single ( 'Popscene', although actually it was a rather spiffing tune) to find their second album NEARLY produced by Andy Partridge of XTC, only apparently, nobody liked his early mixes of several of the songs they worked on together.

 Blur
If you played the album right through, it was like tuning the dial of a radio: disco to glam, to punk to queasy listening.
However, the album's witty and proudly parochial songs (variously bolstered by use of string sections, brass sections and cor anglais) aimed for - and achieved - a quintessential English sound not heard since the 1965-68 heyday of the Kings.
BLUR, the foremost four-piece to come out of Britain in a decade, have made a record for the world to listen to.

With this album they hope to conquer the US market - the hardest of all to crack.
A new version of M.O.R is released as a single in the UK on the 15 th of September.
Its two years since Blur won the 'battle of the bands' pushing their single 'Country House' to number one in the UK charts.

 Interview with Damon Albarn of Blur (NY Rock)
After two years, Blur are back with their new album 13 (not for being unlucky we hope, but for the number of songs on the album).
For a while it looked like it was the end of Blur and you all had enough of the music business...
The Great Escape [1995, number one in the UK, and Blur's biggest-selling album worldwide to date] was a rather cynical album, everything seemed to be going down hill, and I was cynical, too cynical.

News has emerged about the new Gorillaz album.
According to a new interview, Blur frontman Damon Albarn has explained he is waiting for his former bandmate Graham Coxon to rejoin the outfit before starting a new album, while it seems Gorillaz prepare to take their new album out on tour.
The first single of the forthcoming Gorillaz Album release has climed 19 places to 2nd in the UK Chart being beaten only by the superb and quite obviously much better release by Akon.

 Amazon.co.uk: Music: Blur
Overall this album is, for me, not only Blur's most accomplshed work but also a greater addition to a record collection than 'What's The Story' by Oasis (the other great album of the time).
To me this album, as with most Blur albums, has 3 quite brilliant songs then another 11 average numbers.
And yes, "Song 2" is on this album.

 Worth picking up the entire Blur catalog? - CMJ Bulletin Boards
Blur may have been the Woo Hoo band, but before that they were the band in the Gap commercial (Bang), the Pop Scene band, the Girls and Boys band, the Universe band, the Woo Hoo band, the Coffee & Tv band, and now their the Crazy Beat band.
Blur had some fab, fab singles, but quite a few of their albums stand up IMO.
I picked Blur’s fifth album because it's their apex and is a highlight of what they have done, even if it’s not their best.

 Blur's Think Tank review, looking at the band's latest album - UGO.com Feature
Honestly, as experimental albums often are, it's a little of both.
OK, Blur is often hit or miss with the lyrics, but this is just plain stupid.
The band, however, has reemerged in 2003, albeit one man short due to the departure of the talented guitarist/songwriter Graham Coxon, reportedly unhappy with the new direction things were taking.

 Tower Records - Think Tank [ECD] [Explicit Lyrics] * - Blur
Over six heralded records, the most recognizable feature of Blur's sound is that they really don't have a sound.
In a musical world where artists are all too often pigeonholed, Blur remains the ultimate indescribable, unpredictable band.

 Blur Works on Album - Aversion.com
Blur is slowly chipping away at its next album, drummer Dave Rowntree told London's XFM radio.
Rowntree said the band is revamping front man Damon Albarn's self-released Democrazy demos as the groundwork for the new, still untitled album.
The act spent a couple weeks in the studio working on the new record, and is now taking a few off.
