The band had fallen from public favour and was under threat of being dropped by their label. At the same time, Blur discovered\u00a0 that they were \u00a360,000 in debt, due to mismanagement. Blur hired a new manager, who sent them to the US to try to recoup their losses, but the tour was unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p>When Blur began working on their second album, they chose Andy Partridge as their producer. Partridge was dissatisfied with the songs, but was fond of the band, which is why he agreed to the project. These sessions, however, did not last long and did not go well. Bassist Alex James described the sessions as a &#8220;disaster&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Work on <em>Modern Life is Rubbish<\/em> resumed due to a chance meeting with producer Stephen Street, who had worked with the band previously on their 1991 single, &#8220;There&#8217;s No Other Way.&#8221; With Street now producing the album, Blur recorded a mix of material spanning both the period immediately after the release of Leisure and their 1992 tour. Though their label initially rejected the album and told the band to record more potential singles, the members of the band were pleased with the sessions.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45152 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur.jpg\" alt=\"Blur\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-227x170.jpg 227w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-770x578.jpg 770w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-40x30.jpg 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-20x15.jpg 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-640x480.jpg 640w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-808x606.jpg 808w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-453x340.jpg 453w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-13x10.jpg 13w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-12x9.jpg 12w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/blur-385x289.jpg 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The songs on <em>Modern Life is Rubbish<\/em>\u00a0explore a number of different styles, but the sound is highly influenced by the traditional guitar pop of British bands like the Kinks, the Jam, the Small Faces, and the Who.
