>release Leisure
>it's shit and nobody cares
>the music press negatively compares you to The Stone Roses, My Bloody Valentine, Ride and Happy Mondays as a shitty pop band who is trying to make a generic version of "real" music and capitalize on it (think Muse to Radiohead, Mumford & Sons to all other indie folk)
>try to tour the US and fail miserably because your band fucking sucks shit
>get mad at the negative reception your band is getting
>instead of stop being shit you decide to spend the next year telling everyone how you loathe American culture and it's all the fault of America and grunge that you're not being treated like the fucking second coming of The Beatles
>make the album Modern Life Is Rubbish with a bunch of songs about how Britian is GOAT and Americans are all fat stupid Republican redneck fundamentalists
>become a modest success in the UK
>follow it up with Parklife, an album that is more or less the same thing as Modern Life Is Rubbish but more commercially successful in the UK
>spend a year as the biggest band in Britain while the rest of the world does not give a single fuck about you
>suddenly Oasis comes out of nowhere and becomes a global phenomenon (including in the US)
>Blur is now no longer viewed as "cool" in the UK
Blur are shit
>Graham Coxon starts listening to Pavement and tells his band that they should make this type of music to try to make it in America again
>try to make an American indie rock record with British wit to appeal to Americans
>Radiohead had already done this 2 years prior with The Bends except Radiohead just legitimately wanted to make this kind of music whereas Blur were just trying to capitalize on the US market since their homeland didn't give a shit anymore
>spend an entire album basically sucking America's dick
>it becomes a modest success for one song
>it dies out really quickly
>become forever known as "the Woo Hoo band" in the US
>meanwhile while Blur is Woo Hooing all over American Alt Rock stations Radiohead releases OK Computer, an album that becomes as iconic as The Dark Side of the Moon or Sgt Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band almost instantly upon release
>Blur continue their idea stealing pattern and decide to ripoff Radiohead for their next two albums
>nobody cares
>get violent with Nardwuar in an interview
>nobody cares
>break up
>nobody cares
>reunite
>nobody cares
>hold a legacy as "the Parklife band" in the UK and "the Woo Hoo band" in the US
>nobody cares
Go back to 2016
Blur is partisan taste. You would not understand, unless you were with it.
>calls a band shit
>devotes this much energy to it
and is factually incorrect about it to boot
Complete nonsense.
If you are Justina Frischmann you shouldn't have cheated on Brett in the first place.

Song 2. That is all.
WOO HOO

>i dont like blur
nobody cares
they literally had an open relationship, which he said and there is a quote, that thing won't affect us etc etc. They both fucked tons of other people regularly, seems pretty toxic.

ANOTHER NIGHT
AND I THOUGHT WELL WELL
GO TO ANOTHER PARTY
AND HANG MYSELF
GENTLY ON THE SHELF
ngl I agree with OP in a way, Blur aren't really that special of a band, I'd only keep Girls and Boys, Charmless Man, and Ghost Ship. Everything else is mediocre, but same with Oasis that isn't Supersonic, and Stone Roses, who only made Fool's Gold (don't care for I WANNA BE A DOOOOOOOOOG),The Verve, Super Furry Animals and even fucking Cornershop are better than all 3 combined imo. I would include Placebo but they wouldn't account, they were just a kino British alt rock band.
Blur literally won in the end. Gorillaz is more popular than all those shit british bands that no one gives a shit about
