Landmark British rock album! With 'Parklife', Blur solidified their status as heirs to the iconic British pop of the Kinks, Small Faces, and Jam. The album takes you on a journey through post-British Invasion Britpop, touching on psychedelia, synth pop, disco, punk, and music hall. Damon Albarn masterfully captured mid-90s British life. Hits like 'Girls & Boys' and 'Parklife' became UK anthems, helping to launch a new era of Britpop and lad culture. The band celebrated British traditions while creating some of the most enduring music of 90s British rock. Stephen Street's production is highly detailed, skillfully weaving melodies and guitar leads under Albarn's vocals. This epoch-defining album has inspired countless imitators. It's a 180-gram pressing from the Food label, originally released in 1994 and reissued in 2012.
