The Good, the Bad & the Queen

Overview Edit

The Good, the Bad & the Queen is the album by an unnamed British alternative rock supergroup, made up of Damon Albarn, Paul Simonon, Simon Tong and Tony Allen, released in January 2007. The album debuted at number two in the UK Albums Chart and was certified Gold in the UK within days of its release despite little media recognition and airplay. In the United States, the album entered the Billboard 200 at #49.

Although The Good, The Bad & The Queen was first reported as a solo album by Albarn with Danger Mouse producing, NME revealed in late July 2006 that the solo project had been switched to a new group formed by Albarn. Subsequently The Good, the Bad & the Queen was mistaken as being the name of the band. It is stated that the record is, in a sense, a concept album, as its songs are all themed around modern life in London. It was described by Albarn as "a song cycle that's also a mystery play about London" in an interview with Mojo.

Ok..Ok..Ignore the rap sheet.

See. This is a prime example of how we hold artists back with "good ol' days syndrome". I can explain this record in one fell swoop: If this were a debut recording by a unknown band with unknown members, people and press would be gushing all over this.

I didn't care for Blur and Verve was ok in my book, but remained on the periphery due to its short lifespan, and Simonon hasn't done anything since The Clash. Since the preconceptions were subdued, I listened to the record the first time with an …

The Good...

I liked this album okay, it was quite mellow. If you are disappointed in the new direction Bloc Party has taken, as am I, this would be good for you.
