-
Blur have finally found a sound to match their name.
-
13 is the first Blur record that requires multiple listenings for it to really sink in.
-
With patience, 13 reveals itself as sort of a poor man's OK Computer, only instead of Radiohead's airborne sonic journey through the future, Blur investigates the murk of its inner-city swamps.
-
A dense, fascinating, idiosyncratic and accomplished art rock album.
-
A shitty Blur album is still better than a lot of bands' best efforts.
-
If Blur was a tentative step away from the pop past, 13 is a suicidal leap - the little girls are not coming back after they hear this.
-
Little gems are overwhelmed by sprawling jam tracks that, well, blur into each other.
