Hello, I’m Callum Robertson and you’re listening to the music show on FM106.5. In the program today as his latest project rides high in the UK album charts, we focus on Damon Albarn, the driving force behind such bands as Blur, Gorillaz, and now, The Good. The Bad and The Queen.
Damon was bom and brought up in London and while at college he started playing music with a group who were later to become Blur. Their first big commercial success was in 1994 with this track, Park Life. Damon became one of the musicians most associated with the mid-nineties music scene known as Brit Pop. Brit Pop was the revival of guitar-based rock pop, and for a few years there was fierce competition between Blur and fellow Brit Pop act Oasis. Oasis were the rough working class rockers and Blur were seen as the intelligent art school band. The battle of the Brit Pop bands was on and the number one spot was taken by Blur.
Damon’s next commercial venture was the Gorillaz. The band members were represented by four cartoon characters who all had their own distinctive characters and life stories which can be found on their website. Their first album 2001’s Gorillaz, sold over 6 million copies and earned them an entry in the Guinnes Book of Records as the Most Successful Virtual Band.
In 2006 Damon formed his current band, a name very similar to the title of a film The Good, the Bad and The Ugly which starred Clint Eastwood, a famous actor and director. The band released their first single in October last year.
To end here is Damon’s favorite track, North Whale.
12. What is the name of Damon’s band now?
13. What do we learn about Blur according to the speaker?
14. What is the characteristic of Gorillaz?
15. What probably inspired Damon to give the name to his current band?
