Blur

In July 2003, when Blur took the stage at the FIB Benicàssim Festival, they were riding high on the waves of their album *Think Tank*, released earlier that same year. This album marked a pivotal shift for the band; it was their first without guitarist Graham Coxon, who had left during the recording sessions. Despite the turmoil, *Think Tank* still showcased a mix of the band’s signature Britpop sound with new electronic and experimental elements. The live recording captures an intriguing moment in their career, reflecting both the challenges and triumphs they faced. Notably, during this performance, they played fan-favorites like "Out of Time" and "Boys and Girls," which resonated deeply with the audience, proving their ability to connect in a festival atmosphere. This era of Blur symbolizes a brave evolution, blending their established sound with fresh ideas—quite a journey, don’t you think?
