There Are Too Many Of Us

There Are Too Many of Us

The sound of Lord Pendragon emerges from a fusion between the power of alternative rock and the conceptual sensitivity of contemporary art.
Their main influences include David Bowie, Depeche Mode, A Perfect Circle, Duran Duran, Queens of the Stone Age, Pulp, St. Vincent, and Iggy Pop — artists who have also explored the creation of characters and visual worlds to expand their musical narrative.
The band stands out for its use of dense, powerful atmospheres where synthesizers, orchestral textures, and emblematic guitar solos coexist.
Their lyrics invite personal interpretation, transforming introspection into movement.
The artistic universe of Lord Pendragon draws inspiration from brutalism, modernism, and abstract art, as well as from Kafkaesque literature.

Blur as we know it was born in 1989 when the band signed to Food/EMI. Debut album Leisure (1991) announced the arrival of a band with pop suss warped by an art-punk eccentricity. Yet Blur had more in them: namely, a revolution in the sound of English popular music. Second album Modern Life Is Rubbish reintroduced the idea that English rock music could be cool, and by the time their third album Parklife emerged in 1994, the rest of the UK had caught up. 

The Great Escape (1995) refined the sound palette of Britpop, but Blur were already moving on. 1997's Blur was an about-face - scuffed and noisy and un-English. Follow-up 13 was an even a more radical adventure in sound as William Orbit refereed a truce between organic punkpop and new-fangled technology.

Seventh album Think Tank (2003) was Blur’s first as a three piece after the temporary departure of founding guitarist Graham Coxon, featuring an eclectic variety of rhythms and textures and glorious melodies. 

In 2009 Blur reconvened as a four-piece to play a series of UK shows including two sold out dates at Hyde Park and a historic Sunday night appearance at Glastonbury. A film about Blur, No Distance Left To Run, was released in 2010.
