Blur, the living UK legends return with a surprise new full length sure to be met with resounding acclaim from a much starved fanbase; The Ballad of Darren will be their first album in 8 years. Set to kick off a summer of live dates that many thought they'd probably never see again, including 2 nights at Wembley Stadium no less, they have certainly set the bar high. With artwork featuring photography from another British institution, Martin Parr (whose breadth of work feels like the most fitting spiritual visualiser of everything the band has done so far) the final sheen will surely be the always exceptional work of veritable super producer and recent Warp roster solo artist James Ellis Ford, who has captured the band in all their glory in the studio.
