In this episode, we take a track-by-track deep dive into “Leisure,” Blur’s 1991 debut and a foundational record of the Britpop movement. From the psychedelic swirls of “She’s So High” to the baggy, Madchester-infused grooves of “There’s No Other Way”, we explore the album’s blend of shoegaze, indie rock, and danceable rhythms. How did “Leisure” set the stage for Blur’s evolution, and where does it stand in the grand scheme of Britpop history? Tune in as we unpack the sounds, influences, and legacy of this underrated classic.
