New Blur Album Announced

2015-02-19 by MonotoneMop | 31 Comments
After veiling the album for a year, Blur's eighth studio album, The Magic Whip has been
announced. Inspired by the band's time spent in Hong Kong during a reunion tour break, the
record was announced in an impromptu press conference in a Chinatown restaurant in London,
which was livestreamed on Facebook.

Many fake album announcements have cropped up since the 2003 release of Think Tank, including a series of Wikipedia edits claiming the album's title to be Mirror Press. The Magic Whip will be
released on April 27th.

The full tracklisting is as follows:

Lonesome Street
New World Towers
Go Out
Ice Cream Man
Thought I Was A Spaceman
I Broadcast
My Terracotta Heart
There Are Too Many Of Us
Ghost Ship
Pyongyang
Ong Ong
Mirrorball

Listen to the first track revealed from the album, Go Out, below:




...holy shit

So damn happy Blur is back. Next comes Gorillaz, and maybe in my wildest dreams, a new TGTB&TQ.

Song is okay. A bit mild for a teaser. Especially since it's Blur.
