Stylo is the banger, Empire Ants is the cryer and On Melancholy Hill is their magnum opus

@lusciousluie Жыл бұрын

No objections here! agreed

@radeline Жыл бұрын

respectfully, there are a few other gorillaz songs that could be considered their magnum opus such as clint eastwood, rhinestone eyes or even better, empire ants. on melancholy hill is cool but it's not much

Damon was a young man during the 80s so it's like an ode to the music of his youth. I love how this album brought in those retro elements and updated and paired them with modern sounds and vocals.

@lusciousluie Жыл бұрын

I can totally see that being the case. Parts of Demon Days felt like it had the same influences. Tame Impala had major 80s influences as well, which I think helps grab a lot of demographics.

@patjackson8649 Жыл бұрын

The soul singer featured on the two tracks is the late Bobby Womack. He and Damon were working together at the time on an album ‘The Bravest Man in the Universe’ which Damon, and Richard Russell of XL Recordings, produced and wrote for Bobby. It’s a real joy to see you reacting to Gorillaz. Thanks for this and the Demon Days one, too

@lusciousluie Жыл бұрын

i appreciate the insight on Bobby! I clearly had a narrow scope on who he was and what he brought to the table. It took some time to really appreciate what was going on during Cloud of Unknowing but I've come to enjoy Bobby's parts on this album.

Gorillaz is a project by comics artist Jamie Hewlett and musician Damon Albarn, the frontman of Blur in the 90s. Damon likes to incorporate many styles and genres from around the world. Damon is extremely anti war and pro environment. The older music videos have storylines with cartoon band members drawn by Hewlett. Damon likes to feature many artists in this project. I recommend Demon Days.

btw, "Pirate Jet" is the most sung sentence in the entire album

@lukijez 2 ай бұрын

"average plastic beach has 3 pirate jets a song" factoid actualy just statistical error. average album has 0 pirate jets per song. Pirate jet Georg, who has electronic beat & sings pirate jet over 10,000 each song, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

@tadknuf7979 Жыл бұрын

The first 7 tracks on this album set it up to be one of the greatest of all time, but honestly when it gets to the middle the album slows down a bit imo. Personally I think there's only a few songs on the second half that are as good as the first, like melancholy hill, plastic beach and pirate jet, and while the other tracks are good, they never added up to the rest for me. Still an amazing project overall tho.

@lusciousluie Жыл бұрын

After Demon Days expectations were so high that I was very disappointed with that one. Too much sugariness, too much black rap and too much synths. The amount of guests is turning to celebrities parade. If I only know what 's going to be in 10's...
