Blur

A britpop kaleidoscope

by Claudio Fabretti

We retrace the history of Blur in 2 hours of music and chat, in the new episode of Rock in Onda, with Claudio Fabretti on the airwaves of Radio Città Aperta (Fm 88.9 in Rome or streaming at http://radiocittaperta.it/onair).

Blur – part one

Blur – part two

From late-blooming exponents of the madchester sound to contenders for the britpop crown, through to artistic maturity and experiments with pop and lo-fi. The arc of Blur, the band that, through hits and flops alike, defined the '90s with their perfect balance of melodic flair and experimental impulses. Plus an appendix devoted to Albarn's and Coxon's solo forays.
