They are obsessed with these guys.
Between the 2 of them, they have purchased every CD, including B-sides and remixes. And my oldest even has the "official autobiography:

Love their music or hate it, I am impressed with the mythology and backstory that these guys have created for this project. And I'm enjoying the hell out of watching my kids get so into this music that is pretty challenging for most 8 and 10-year-olds. It's fun.

Plus: I like the music, too. And I'm enjoying getting them into Blur because of this.

And, Ethan is going as 2D (the Albarn character) for Halloween.

Given their affection for a cartoon band, are we sure they're not Spade Kitty's kids?

Have you let them check out Demon Days Live in Manchester? They play all the songs from the album in sequential order with all the key players plus a full orchestra. One of my favorite concert DVDs.

Yep.
They took that out of the library about a month ago and loved it.
