On Friday (June 29), Blur shared ‘St. Charles Square’, the latest single to be taken from their upcoming album ‘The Ballad Of Darren’.

The song is the second to be taken from the upcoming ninth album from the Britpop legends and follows the lead single ‘The Narcissist’, which arrived earlier this year.

According to a press release, the song sees Albarn and co. capture the same “discordant art-pop swagger” as seen in the band’s earlier discography, with the frontman exclaiming “Cause there’s something down here, and it’s living under the floorboards” during the chorus. It also describes the chorus as being “encircled by backing vocals that compound the sense of encroaching peril”, alongside the intriguing guitars from longtime member Graham Coxon.

Although last Friday marked the first time that the song has been officially released by the band, the members have already given the track a live debut, and played it at multiple shows in recent weeks.

This included their electric live return for their first warm-up show at Colchester Arts Centre in Essex on May 19, a follow-up show in Eastbourne and an appearance at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound Festival last month.

The upcoming LP ‘The Ballad Of Darren’ is set for release on July 21 via Parlophone and Warner (pre-order here). The album is their first since 2015’s ‘The Magic Whip’.
