Album · 1995 · 15 Songs. The Great Escape presents a merry-go-round of British pop pleasures. Chamber music and psychedelia intersect to create the tipsy glow of Ernold Same, while the band’s sharp-tongued brashness stokes Entertain Me, a cocktail of punk and disco. With a voice that shifts from gentle murmur to desperate cry, Damon Albarn plays the role of Cockney ringmaster to the hilt, introducing listeners to the venomous caricatures of Mr. Robinson’s Quango and Dan Abnormal only to return us to the moody but magnificent pub sing-alongs of Country House and Charmless Man.

Where Blur's breakthrough album was a celebration of the working class, drawing on British pop from the '60s and reaching through the '80s, The Great Escape concentrates on the suburbs, featuring a cast of characters all trying to cope with the numbing pressures of modern life. Consequently, it's darker than Parklife, even if the melancholia is hidden underneath the crisp production and catchy melodies. Even the bright, infectious numbers on The Great Escape have gloomy subtexts, whether it's the disillusioned millionaire of "Country House" and the sycophant.
