Album Notes & Community Reviews

Before defining the Britpop era, Blur debuted with 'Leisure', a record deeply immersed in the contemporary "Madchester" baggy and shoegaze scenes. The album heavily features hypnotic, danceable rhythms paired with highly psychedelic, melodic guitar noise and a distinctly ethereal, energetic atmosphere.
