I thought this was worthy of its own thread.

To be released in April, excited? Having grown up with Blur it's a resounding yes from me, Think Tank was their only bad album IMO.

Let's hope it's a good one. I like blur and some of the solo stuff that has come from them.

Think Tank is a great album. 13 is the weakest album in my opinion but even then its got some decent tracks.

13 is my favourite Blur album, and Think Tank is right up there too.

Looking forward to this.

Leisure was my favourite. They then spent their career as Blur investigating their own colons as far as I'm concerned. What Damon Albarn has done since as a solo artist shits all over what Blur did as a band in my opinion.
