"The Ballad of Darren??" I was caught off guard by how good Blur’s come back single “The Narcissist” was. They have no business being that good after all this time. And then the fact the album was just as good! Crazy. ‘The Ballad of Darren’ is a highly personal record, rammed with hooks and peppered with Graham Coxon’s signature melodic chaos. Standout tracks - The Narcissist and Barbaric"

Tracklist:

1. The Ballad
2. St. Charles Square
3. Barbaric
4. Russian Strings
5. The Everglades (For Leonard)
6. The Narcissist
7. Goodbye Albert
8. Far Away Island
9. Avalon
10. The Heights

Preceded by first single The Narcissist on 18th May, the album was produced by James Ford and recorded in Studio 13, London and Devon, and is the sound of a band at the very top of their game.

Produced by James Ford and recorded at Studio 13, London and Devon, The Ballad of Darren is the band’s ninth studio album, their first since the chart-topping The Magic Whip in 2015, with artwork featuring an image by British photographer Martin Parr.
