Genroh Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) I just searched, and there's no Gorillaz thread here, somehow. Genroh....i think you're the only man on at this deviant hour that can do this. id be all up ons. So it is written, so it shall be done. I for one love'em for their blend of punk, rap, R&B, and Funk. I'm sure some hate them just for the fact they're animated and there for fake. Then again... that can be said about almost any band now adays So here be the Gorillaz forum! Discuss, share, or just listen. Here are some of my personal favorites.

Stilly Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I love Gorillaz and I can't wait for the 3rd album to come out in a couple months. /now back into seclusion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 woooo stillbored party thread confirmed ahem. that said: in college, the cool kids were on about these guys and Radiohead, and i kinda missed the boat on both counts. i coudlnt not be exposed to Clint Eastwood & such, but it was actually Sen who got me all on Demon Days, such a great album...one of those few you can just let it ride & not really have to skip tracks. Genroh already covered most of my favorites there (tomorrow comes today, etc) so here's the only other one that came to mind offhand. there 3rd album have a date yet?

Genroh Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Demon Days is indeed one of the better albums. If you're new to Gorillaz folks, that's the place to start then I'd recommend G-Sides, D-Sides (for Happy Landfill and Rock it). Happy Landfill was top of my playlists for years (still in them just not at the top) and at the time is was fun to flaunt that it was only available via download from goriilaz.com when you bought the collectors edition of Demon Days. Rock It was also an exclusive on the sites theater page. (just a lowly flash vid) Now both are available for the masses. Every Planet We Reach is Dead, that was the one I couldn't remember! Well here's another fav... EDIT: The official site also had some hilarious shorts. Game of Death Jump The Gut These videos get on here purely for the Murdoc.

HypnotizinChikns Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) i was working to this one today(rockit)....and it fit my mood perfect. I love blur as well <3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deXxvloRieU Edited March 26, 2010 by HypnotizinChikns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Demon Days is indeed one of the better albums. If you're new to Gorillaz folks, that's the place to start then I'd recommend G-Sides, D-Sides (for Happy Landfill and Rock it). Would you just not recommend their self-titled album at all, or would you only recommend it after those three? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genroh Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Well it got me into them so quite the contrary. As NZA stated though, Demon days is just one of those albums you plug in and just let it run. So much veraiety and good rythem with a epic two part finish with Don't Get Lost in Heaven & Demon Days.

MetalHeart Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) Thanks Genroh for the thread! I'm a newer Gorillaz fan. I have friends who have loved them from the start, but kinda like Nick I missed the boat on these guys. I am diggin' their stuff! Edited March 3, 2010 by MetalHeart typo!

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Nobody has posted since Plastic Beach dropped. Thoughts? Comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnotizinChikns Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) Love it, can't say enough good things about it. My favorite tracks are, Stylo, Superfast Jellyfish, Empire Ants, Rhinestone Eyes, and on Melancholy Hill. Really, there isn't a single track I've skipped so far, and I'm not Mos Def fan, but I really enjoy the songs that feature him and Snoop Dog. Bot to forget tho mention Lou Reed, I would have never guessed... your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away...

the division of joy Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Got the new album through my awfully legit ways. Not bowled over. Will give another listen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Got the new album through my awfully legit ways. Not bowled over. Will give another listen though.My thoughts exactly. The debut album by Broken Bells is blowing my mind though. So good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnotizinChikns Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 ^ I downloaded broken Bells the other day still haven't given it a proper listen, but i like what I've heard so far. I can't believe you guys are "meh" over Plastic Beach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 goddammit They say things come in three’s and here’s more evidence to support that theory. On the heels of The White Stripes and LCD Soundsystem‘s respective break-ups, People reports that the Damon Albarn-led Gorillaz have also called it quits. According to the report, the Gorillaz 2010 world tour became “dogged with angry rows” and shortly after the band’s final performance, Albarn and his Gorillaz cohort, Jamie Hewlett, had a “massive argument” that “basically ended things.” Apparently, “things haven’t been great for a while, between Albarn and Hewlett, with Hewlett said to be frustrated at ‘how much time Albarn was giving to his many other projects’ and Albarn was ‘less than impressed with Jamie’s party lifestyle.’” *sigh* i read they talked about splitting after Demon Days, and yeah, some comments that the last album was really the last, but....ugh. hold me, genroh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Update on Nick's link. Update: Hewlett’s son, Denholm, posted the following on Gorillaz-Unofficial: “Hey everyonee, listen, i just spoke to my dad and told him about this, and he said its rubbish, they have kinda fallen out, just not about the reasons stated above in the article, they’re just taking time apart from each other to work on other projects. gorillaz are not gunna split up, its fine.” Phew!
