Willing to call this the best Damon thing since 13. Admittedly there's not really any competition for that (except arguably Demon Days)

maybe i'll have to give it another listen. it certainly sounded like damon's best album since plastic beach when i listened (not that anything he's done since then has been much good) but it didn't really stick with me. "best since 13" seems impossible though when there's think tank and demon days

unless you want to consider it the 'out of time ep', tracklist ambulance/out of time/on the way to the club/caravan/battery in your leg there that's acceptable. both the songs with 'song' in the name are overrated imo

One of them is "good"

those 5 + the two 'song's + gene by gene are all great

i also need to revisit the tgb&tq debut i guess because i barely remember it at all

the debut has 'herculean' which is, to harp on a theme, albarn's best song since the last millennium imo

that's all i remember from it and i do love it

title track is a nice little rave-up
