honestly I think damon has just kinda lost it as both a producer and melodist

the last damon album that was at all worthwhile was plastic beach and that was still pretty inconsistent

I was wondering why you hadn't said anything yet!

Have to say I’m most intrigued by the Leee John collaboration.

you think robert would've sang on the song if he knew the word "times" would be spelled with an irreverent "z" at the end?

Four "different" cassette editions?

So this is out now and while I wasn’t a fan of how they handled half of the features in past efforts, I feel they nail it this time around, they manage to adjust to the style of the guests while being consistent as a whole album.

I thought Plastic Beach did that pretty well, true respect for anyone who can "feat." Lou Reed, MES and De La Soul without losing their footing.

surprised that this seems to be getting a fairly positive response after the last few records were pretty dire
― ufo, Friday, 23 October 2020 06:28 (three years ago) link
yeah this is actually pretty good. it's nothing spectacular but much much better than their last few and the most i've enjoyed any albarn project in a long long time, probably since demon days? i agree with moka that the guests feel integrated into the whole much better than usual.

Gorillaz by the numbers but like hearing a new song from Damon Albarn.

Yeah just found out about that one. No idea how I’ve never seen that piece of trivia before. Having one of your most popular songs built pretty much completely around a cheap synth preset is awesome.

Damon weirdly amicable on this interview too, almost every interview I’ve seen of him he looks like he’s hungover and would rather be anywhere else.

Really surprised by how much I like this new one, I dig the melancholy vibe through most of it. That last one had higher peaks, but this might be my favorite front to back Gorillaz since Plastic Beach (which I guess isn't saying much considering how blah I've found most of them to be).
