Description
Blur – Modern Life Is Rubbish is the second studio album by London band Blur, released on Food Records on 10 May 1993. It was recorded between October 1991 and March 1993; Stephen Street produced most of it, while "Sunday Sunday" and "Villa Rosie" were made with Steve Lovell. With its songs about everyday English life, the album is seen as one of the records that paved the way for Britpop. It reached No. 15 in the UK album chart, and the singles were "For Tomorrow", "Chemical World" and "Sunday Sunday". This copy is the remastered EU reissue as a double LP in a gatefold sleeve (Food FOODLPX9).
