I know "blur is shite" is a meme and all, but... blur is shite. can someone tell me why they have any appeal? i thought people on mu didn't like shitty pop, why do I keep seeing pic related everywhere

>judging a +20 year old band based on their latest release.

Go back and listen to 13 and s/t before you make a judgement. Would you judge Radiohead based on King of Limbs and not Kid A, In Rainbows, or OK Computer?

i haven't listened to pic related, I only used it because it's been on the boards constantly
I have listened to 13 and it's really bad. it's shite, as a matter of fact

it sounds like a pop boyband trying to imitate ok computer

i was cringing through every track, the songs that weren't uninteresting were corny and laughable

they're very middle of the road

i never considered blur as a band with great albums, but their singles mostly range from good to great. i won't probably check this album out, tho.

Don't really see how you can say the last half is uninteresting or corny. They were going through a similar phase as Radiohead at a similar time, so not sure how you say they're copying. There's plenty of pop on ok computer too. Blur is more influenced by American music than Radiohead was.

Blur is probably the most unoriginal band to garner critical praise.

Coldplay still exists. I don't see how you guys call Blur any less original than bands like Pavement.

Seriously, the first three tracks off of 13 are just the same song in different keys. /s
I liked Blur better when they were neo-shoegaze.

Damon Albarn definitely unoriginal. Too bad he could never be as innovative as Jamie Hewlett was to invent a completely virtual band and draw off tons of random genres.
