The Narcissist

The Narcissist has provoked my enthusiasm for Blur’s upcoming album, The Ballad of Darren.

The Narcissist is Blur’s latest track, and I don’t have much to say about it, other than check it out! As you know, Oasis is my favourite band, so my enthusiasm for brit-pop is a given. Regardless of the lyrics, I love how the track sounds, nostalgic. In fact, I predict if this track were released 25 years ago, it would be a classic today.

Damon Albarn has been a huge inspiration over my lifetime, especially when I find myself making a return to songwriting, and recently he has been busier than ever. Although I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Gorillaz latest LP, Cracker Island, two full-length releases in a single year is a tremendous effort nonetheless.

Enjoy!
