The Great Escape

by Blur

The Great Escape cover art

Released at the absolute peak of 'Britpop mania', 'The Great Escape' is a deeply cynical, highly orchestrated satirical concept album concerning modern suburban isolation. Damon Albarn delivers incredibly sarcastic, melancholic character studies wrapped in dense, eclectic new wave and pop-rock instrumentation.
