Re: B-Roads

So many people thought it would be the end of the world if it was released so many years later. I knew it wouldn't. Only die hard fans know and care about it.

13 part II?
Yeah, I'm afraid of this. Hopefully it'll be better with a different producer.

Re: NEW BLUR ALBUM - The Ballad Of Darren

One think I can't stand is these special editions in the album with two more tracks. Give a 10 song album and then 2 b-sides apart from it. If they aren't in the standard version of the album, that means that is not part of the album. What do you think about having different versions of the same al...

Re: NEW BLUR ALBUM - The Ballad Of Darren

New song is cool, safe. nothing exciting except it's a new blur song. Verse melody is very repetitive, like Westway.

Re: Modern Life is Rubbish turns 30 today

Didn't get released in America until November, which was weird because I was buying singles not knowing an album was released.

Re: Popscene, in context.

I saw the CD in an American record store and freaked. I had no idea it came out, I didn't know about music mags and there was no internet. Quite a change after loving Leisure so much.

Suede - Autofiction

WOW. Best album since Coming Up imo. My only complaint is that the digital version is very LOUD, probably brickwalled to death. I'd love to hear what a vinyl rip sounds like.

Re: general blur thread

Yea, looks like it. Blur21 has a great 7" remix of it with extra vocals in the chorus which I love.

Re: BLUR - 2023 LIVE

Oh come on Dave. All these shows with "maybe" an album coming? There's six months before the first show, plenty of time. It may not be out by June but it will probably be announced by then.

Re: BLUR - 2023 LIVE

Re: B-Roads

I skipped through it. Didn't like so much footage and interviews of random people. 10 mins of swingers? 3 mins of car making? It's fine to show origins of the songs for a minute, but not for several minutes each. Loved the interviews and backstage stuff. Apples and bananas as Alex's bits! LOL The pi...
