Gorillaz Appreciation Thread I never hear anybody here talk about these guys. Are there any fans of Gorillaz here on the Org? I have really been into there music hard lately. I just bought the "D-Sides" disc. AMAZING ALBUM! A must have for any fan with outtakes & B-Sides from there Demon Days Album.
I really think they have an original sound that is easily recognizable when u hear it. Also there Artwork & Video animations are like no other Band. My favorite songs by them are; Tomorrow Comes Today, Hong Kong, Dare, Dirty Harry, Kids With Guns, El Manana, New Genius....just to name a few.. | |

yeah he's really awesome and different. I think he could have blended in dance and hip hop for madonna more than timbaland and pharell, as much as I like them as producers [Edited 12/8/07 18:18pm] | |

I know, and that's great. 20 years from now, they will use robots instead of people to produce pop stars, and it'll all be thanks to one man who IS the gorillaz | |

Yes, his vocals are great on the Gorillaz albums. Very underated artist IMO. | |

Demon Days is absolutely stunning, and one of the greatest pieces of art of this decade. I can't think of another album that captures the spirit of paranoia and fear that has lurked beneath the surface for the whole decade better than this one. It plays like a good horror movie- one in which you actually care about the characters and gradually, but surely, sinks its teeth in. Thoroughly appetizing and rewarding listen!

I couldn't have said it better. "Demon Days" gives me the same feeling as when I first heard Pink Floyds' "Dark Side of The Moon". Brilliant album..I can't wait 4 there next album! | |

that's a very good song.In recent years,I've been suggesting that Janet Jackson or Madonna should collaborate with these guys.Janet especially could use a hot groove like "Dare". | |

I think Gorillaz was only ever meant to be a side project- their wild success seems to have come as a rather pleasant surprise. Personally, I greatly prefer them to Blur.

Taken from wikipedia, so not necessarily reliable: "In a September 2006 interview with Uncut magazine, Albarn was reported saying '[Gorillaz] has been a fantastic journey which isn't over, because we're making a film. We've got Terry Gilliam involved. But as far as being in a big band and putting pop music out there, it's finished. We won't be doing that any more.'" Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018!

I would be so dissapointed. | |

These guys made some good cartoons with some funky tracks, but they knew all along they were a farce. test | |
