¿Nuevo LP de Blur ? Exactamente, aunque no os hagáis ilusiones, aun no ha sido confirmado. Lo que si se confirma, después de unos últimos meses cargados de noticias e incluso del regreso de la banda a los escenarios, es que al menos Albarn está interesado en un nuevo álbum. Ha sido en declaraciones para The Sun . De hecho, se trata de una extensa entrevista en la que se recogen datos tan curiosos e interesantes como que el próximo LP podría ser una banda sonora. En palabras de Albarn, [...]

On July 31st, Blur dropped the 21 Box Set and the re-release/reissue of their seven albums. Blur being my favorite British band, still can't believe they have been together for 21 years. The band will play a big show at Hyde Park and at the Summer Olympics closing ceremony. So in turn I would like to reveal my 21 favorite Blur tracks of all time. Think of this as a "Greatest Hits mixtape". This list includes b-sides and remixes. Those wanting to know if this certain famous song of theirs will make [...]
Something happened when Damon Albarn broke up with Justine Frischmann way back when. He became depressed and started writing some of his most emotionally introspective music which was a stretch from his usual analysis of English middle-class culture. He then travelled to Africa where he did a lot of mind-altering drugs and met his new partner who he has since had a daughter with. This change transformed Albarn into one of the most prolific songwriters, collaborators and producers of anyone in British music over the last ten years. His work included Gorillaz, The Good, the Bad and the Queen, Rocket [...]

If you want to tell us what you think of the song, feel free to leave a comment below.

There's no question about it: Blur is back! While it may be a while before Damon Albarn works to release another Gorillaz album, it's great that he's diversifying his repertoire with a solo album, production on that Bobby Womack album, and now these new tracks that are set for a 73 release in August . Album titles and release dates aren't being discussed yet, but hopefully that's coming soon. To talk about the two tracks individually, "the Puritan" has a quirky, fun beat that I'm sure most people are going to directly link to a [...]

Damon Albarn a toujours eu tendance à avoir du mal à lâcher ses projets qui lui tiennent tant à coeur. Alors qu'on apprend qu'il est derrière l'excellentissime album de Bobby Womack , il nous lâche discrètement (mais pas trop), deux nouveaux titres sous sa facette du leader de Blur . Get ready for The Puritan streaming here twitter.com/blurofficial at 7.15pm BST #blur instagr.am/p/MlofZly-Ts/ — blur (@blurofficial) Juli 2, 2012 Comment tout ça c'est [...]
Ahead of their 2012 London Olympics gig and their 24 years boxset, Blur have unveiled two new tracks via the medium of twitter. Well, they announced and linked them on twitter, but actually posted them on youtube. Watch 'The Puritan' and 'Under the Westway' below. The tunes are Blur's first new material since 20102s Record Store Day release 'Fool's Day' and could be possibly included on upcoming Blur 21 , which includes all seven Blur albums as well as 15 discs worth of extras. Stream/Watch:
Today, Blur performed two new tracks by the way of a live stream. Let's say that again: today, Blur performed TWO NEW TRACKS. If you missed that however, we have both tracks for you, in their entirety below. First of all, anyone expecting another Song 2 of Beetlebum will go away dissapointed. 'Under The Westway' is a forelorn piano ballad with Damon Albarn's croon cutting through some bleak yet tender sounds. 'The Puritan' is a little more upbeat and features an unrelenting synth motif. Both songs will be available to download and [...]

Holy-cats it's Blur ! We haven't heard from them since 20102s "Fool's Day," a one off for that year's Record Store Day. So why two new songs? Why now? Is an album on the way? A tour? No one knows, but we can sure as hell hope. "Under the Westway" is a pretty ballad that showcases just how strong and distinct Damon Albarn's voice remains after all these years. Carried by its pleasant piano, and wonderful background vocals the song really stands out when it gets loud. Littering the song are sharp fits of heavy, distorted guitar [...]
