hey,
have any of you heard the new album from the
Gorillaz? It's just great trippy, futuristic hip hop.
The Gorillaz are an animated group and the
music is produced by Del the Funkee
Homosapien, Dan the Automator, and Damon
Albarn. I have to admit that I'm a huge Del fan,
and his cameos on the album are fantastic,
but, surprisingly, it's the Automator that really
saves the day. I highly recommend checking it
out. Here's a link so that you can hear the
album from start to finish:

Lemme know what you think.

I bought this album the day it came out. I saw the video on MTV2 while out in PA in May, and have been waiting for it since. I listen to it just about every day since I bought it.
I recommended it in another thread, "Last 10 CD's you aquired".

Their video for "Clint Eastwood" is awesome, great animation.

It's definately more of a rock band than comedy. Ever since I first saw the video, I've been humming the song "Clint Eastwood" plus with Daman Albren on vocals, it makes it 100X better. I always loved Blur.

Comedy? What's comedy about it? I just recently read an article on them, and what they are trying to do with the animation is take away the glorifying of the Rock Star, and make it all about the misuc. All of the artists in the band have some other thing that they work on, so they formed this and just make some really great music. The animation isn't supposed to be funny or a joke, it's just a made up group, and made up events that they go through. Picture it like one of those MTV cartoon shows, with a soundtrack by the Gorillaz.


Now you can see why I never wanted to leave that island

If that was directed at me, then I was only answering MikeWOW's question.

Gorillaz also aren't looking to get recognition for their work. When doing live shows, they hide behind screens so you can't see them. They also turned down a nomination for the british music awards, which normally guarentees a 50-100% purchase rate of an album.

You listen to me! While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is I am a nay-sayer and a hatchet man in the fight against violence! I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King! My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method...is love. I love you, Sheriff Truman.
