Blur or Gorrilaz?

Seems to me like someone isn't doing their job properly.

I think Blur will sadly be remembered for their more horrible moments (Song 2, Girls & Boys, Parklife) than their better (This Is A Low, Coffee & TV, Chemical World, On Your Own, Best Days etc). God I want to hear some stuff of theirs RIGHT NOW!

That's because you fail to heed Flavor Flav's advice, and you BELIEVE THE HYPE!

I was a huge Blur fan for a while, hunting down their most elusive tracks by hook or by crook (this was pre-internet). However, unlike their more ardent supporters, I tend to prefer their earlier stuff (the rot set in circa Parklife). I'd sooner play Leisure than any of their last three albums.

+ everyone comes off badly in 'Live Forever', Liam especially but there's no surprise there.

Alex OTM re: singles

Some of the best b-sides ever were by Blur, IMHO. "I'm Fine", "Mace", "Day Upon Day", "Mr. Briggs"...

Although I too would not have expected this sort of thing from Alex. Well, thirty lashes on the gallows for me, I suppose.

i don't think Jarvis does, other than just being in it

do you really mean the Gorillaz album is coming out in 2006 nick? that's ridiculous if it's already complete!

Bush speaks shit and he has a dick for a face, so there's also dick shit.

This thread is like a perfect core sample of ILX history. "Here you can see the dividing line of when we couldn't do giant colored text anymore...here is a layer rich in carbon dioxide from the Google Wars..."

Never Mind the Blurillaz...

OH MY GOD!!! Thank you for bringing this thread back into the new answers section - it gives me the explanation of BLURILLAZ, a concept that has been confounding several of us who forgot its origins! THANK YOU!

The three good things Damon Albarn ever managed to do:

1) played keyboard on some Elastica tunes (Norman Balda and Dan Abnormal)

2) lost his hair (in 1992 he was sporting pudding-bowl haircut)

3)wrote some decent tunes (from Parklife, and Blur)

dan abnormal was a (very good) blur song, off the (very good) great escape. his hair is practically irrelevant. by 'decent tunes' you clearly mean 'six very very good albums and one good one'.

my own bias aside, though, the amount of BS on this thread, mostly from americans who'd only heard about 3 blur songs (including song 2, which although a brilliantly successful pop song isn't very representative musically of what blur were capable), is astonishing.

And now Gorillaz is over, and it's all about the Blur and the band that has no actual name, supposedly.

parklife, blur and modern life is rubbish are good albums. the others are not.
