About this deal

Bit of a mystery, here--missed this on initial release, and had been looking for a copy for the last few months. Their seventh album, Think Tank (2003), continued their experimentation with electronic sounds and was also shaped by Albarn's growing interest in hip hop and world music, featuring more minimal guitar work. The record came sealed and appears to be the above version in every conceivable way (even has the obi), but has no poster or download card. Initially conceived in Hong Kong, during downtime following a cancelled show in Japan, the band spent five days laying down ideas. Due to inventory and accounting purposes, we do not exchange items received for different items than originally purchased.

It’s fantastic, but compared to the two new songs they’ve released in 2023, it feels incredibly transitional. The Magic Whip is Blur's surprise reunion record - the biggest surprise of which is how effortlessly it maintains the band's essence, while pushing it's sound into uncharted territory. There’s a double sided giant poster, two printed inner sleeves, a mirror on the rear of the heavy card matt gatefold sleeve and a download card. com (also known as Esprit) has been the world's biggest and best seller of premium quality and top condition rare and vintage vinyl records, rare CD's and music memorabilia since 1985 - that's 39 years!In an attempt to distract themselves, they worked on new material in Avon Studios, as announced by Damon Albarn during the gig at AsiaWorld-Expo, Chek Lap Kok. The band consists of singer Damon Albarn, guitarist Graham Coxon, bassist Alex James and drummer Dave Rowntree. The first album from Blur in twelve years, born from a chance cancellation of a gig back in 2013, much to the disappointment of fans at the time but to their unbridled bouncy joy today.

I don't have a clever ice cream or Blur reference to end this review on, but this album is a flavor of music we've been missing that has brought clarity to my cloud-filled album library.I'm glad Blur emerged from the scattered years and created this album for everyone to enjoy and didn't leave it unfinished in the Orient: it's going to get a lot of plays in my circle. Two years later we made the move to our present address, 35 The Headrow, where we have remained ever since. The album will connect to everyone in a different way, but it sounded like Broken Bell's outer space sound, combined with Damon's Britpop flavor, and a lot more electronic sounds you've heard with other Blur works.

Songs on The Magic Whip mention internet hotspots, satellite showers, industrial light and glass arcades. On the way back from his tour of Australia in December, Albarn stopped in Hong Kong once more for lyrical inspiration. The group have largely been on hiatus since the Magic Whip tour, but have announced plans to reunite in 2023 for various live dates.Songs on The Magic Whip mention internet hotspots, satellite showers, industrial light and glass arcades. The Magic Whip is the first Blur album since 2003's Think Tank, the first with guitarist Graham Coxon onboard since 1999's 13 (Coxon was booted from the Think Tank sessions a week in and summarily quit), and the first with producer Stephen Street since 1997's Blur. Their eighth album, The Magic Whip (2015), was the sixth consecutive Blur studio album to top the British chart.

It wasn't until Graham Coxon reprised these sessions and presented them to long-time producer Stephen Street, who went on to develop them with the guitarist, that they realised they might have material worthy of a new album. Like Albarn's recent solo work, it explores the distant traveler's conflicting sense of wonder and alienation.Not sure what exactly I've got here--I'm pretty sure it's not a boot (haven't heard tell of or seen boots of this one, and the packaging is beautiful, way higher quality than any boot I've ever seen), so is it a brand new repress or something else? Additionally make sure your User-Agent is not empty and is something unique and descriptive and try again.
