Damon looks soooo amazing in this video! Mmmmmm.So Song 2 has absolutely nothing at all to do with Grunge i'm afraid. One of the biggest shifts in the way they approached their music was that guitarist Graham Coxon had became ever more prominent in the songwriting (in fact this album is often thought of as 'Graham's' album.)Īt the time he was heavily influenced by American bands like Pavement, Grandaddy and Sonic Youth as well as some heavier bands too and this is hugely evident on the album (and on Coxon's solo albums in general) They had since released a further two albums (Parklife and The Great Escape) led the whole Britpop movement (along with Oasis) and then distanced themselves from said movement as it started to implode in a parody of itself by the time they got around to recording the fantastic eponymous titled album which spurned Song 2. Grunge pretty much died in 94 along with Kurt Cobain and this song was released in 97 a full three albums later for Blur.īlur's '93 album "Modern Life is Rubbish" which had a working title of "England vs America" was the album that had was viewed in some quarters as the antithesis of Grunge so maybe that is where this odd rumour originated?
