Project 1001: June 7, 2024; Gorillaz by Gorillaz
The world is spinning too fast / I'm buying lead Nike shoes / To keep myself tethered / To the days I've tried to lose
I’ve never gotten into Gorillaz. I know they have some very dedicated fans. Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett have created an original and unique musical universe. Kudos and a tip of the hat and I respect that a lot. Although I enjoyed spinning this disc this morning, the music just doesn’t speak to me much. Their videos are awesome I must say.
Slant magazine described Gorillaz as “like a cyberpunk movie, it’s futuristic and wistful all at once.”1
Rhapsody says it’s an “album that’s stubborn, zany, cryptic and poptastic in equal measure.”2
Spin magazine ranked it sixth on its year-end list.3
