I put G-Sides up there too even if it is an EP. Ghost Train, by itself, elevates the whole rest of it.

so psyched for the new Gorillaz album.

I used to like Demon Days way back in the day. Now it sounds bizarre to me that I have familiarized myself with the rest of the discography.

Plastic Beach is amazing.

Yeah unsurprisingly I really liked the three that I heard. Really enjoyed "Andromeda" in particular.

I don't love the production but I think the songs are growing on me.

Ascension seems pretty uninteresting.

I suspect that a couple of these are the worst on the album. Nothing wrong with Satrunz Barz or Andromeda tho. I listened to some clips from the recent live performance and most of the songs sound off the hook.

I like that new track with Vince Staples.

All of the new tracks slay.

Plastic Beach is my favorite Gorillaz album but I could see the new one besting it.

So the new Gorillaz tracks have sent me down a Damon Albarn rabbit hole. I really love the new songs; "Saturn Barz" is crazy catchy. I dismissed The Fall as a throwaway when it came out, and it kind of is, but I played it last night while doing some writing and found it pretty stimulating. Plastic Beach is still their best. And then I've been revisiting and reassessing some Blur albums; Think Tank is pretty spectacular, "Crazy Beat" notwithstanding.

Same here. In the past, their singles never really made me want to dig in. Somehow this forum has convinced me. Now I can't get enough of that S/T album and have been heavily revisisting mid/late era Blur that I previously wrote off.

Hey quick question, are the Gorillaz characters supposed to be monkeys?

No you imbecile. 2D, Noodle and Russel all look vaguely simian. I was wondering if that was just a quirky design choice or if, in the diegesis of their fictional world, they were meant to be humanoid monkeys. You stupid goddamn idiot.
