Review

One man's loss is our gain. On 13, lead singer Damon Albarn feeds his lyrics with the pain from his breakup with his longtime girlfriend, Elastica's Justine Frischmann. From the down-home hymnal "Tender" to the eerily psychedelic stagger of "Swamp Song," Blur, graced with the cohesive strength of William Orbit's production, take the high road, avoiding the woe-is-me drudgery of self-pity and presenting Albarn's varying shades of grief with a collection of melancholic, disturbed achievements. --Beth MassaUnlike many English pop bands, Blur have always defied convention. When the neopsychedelic swagger of their debut single "There's No Other Way" caught on in 1991, the band shifted gears, adopting a playfully classic British rock sound reminiscent of the Kinks. When that clicked two years later, Blur turned all slack and noisy, garnering their first real American hit with "Song 2." So, does 13 follow in the same tradition as their last disc? Of course not. Subordinating melody for atmosphere, 13 is a diverse, subversive odyssey forsaking worn paths to explore roads less traveled, such as country-gospel ("Tender"), combustive glam ("Bugman"), and expansive space-dub ("Battle," "Trimm Trabb"). Lyrically, vocalist Damon Albarn is consumed with his breakup with Elastica frontwoman Justine Frischmann, but while the songs on 13 are often moody and melancholy, Blur are far too musically adventurous to ever resort to mere self-pity. --Jon WiederhornAustralian exclusive version of the brit-pop act's highly acclaimed 1999 album '13' which includes a bonus 3 track VCD with the videos for 'Tender', 'Coffee & TV' and 'No Dis tance Left To Run'. Clear slipcase combines 2 standard jewel cases. 1999 release.
