Think Tank

Think Tank, released in 2003, is Blur's seventh studio album and a marked stylistic shift from their earlier Britpop work toward a more experimental blend of alternative rock, electronic and art rock with indie rock elements. The sound emphasizes synths, drum programming and ambient and world music textures alongside more restrained guitar, producing a sparser, more atmospheric and introspective feel. The record was shaped in part by guitarist Graham Coxon's reduced involvement during the sessions, which contributed to its different tonal palette.
