New Blur Album - The Magic Whip

[Debaser]

The first new Blur album with Graham Coxon in sixteen years is out in April and I'm really looking forward to it.

Fingers crossed I manage to get tickets to see them in Hyde Park too.

New single, Go Out

Whole band?
Loved the stuff in the 90s... but after song 2 I kinda went off them

Been listening to this for a few days now and I have to say that I'm really impressed with it. Ghost Ship is the standout track for me, but I really like Ice Cream Man as well.

Got me looking at Hyde Park tickets as well...

Better have a look at this album then! Is it a good balance of being back to form vs new matrial?

I think that it stands up really well to their older stuff.It's not 'immediate', but grows on you with every listen, which for me is the mark of a fine record.

Yes I agree with you on that count
