Chill vibe, fantastic song, sublime video I could see this in my top 10 or even top 5 one day (currently El Mañana, Empire Ants, Hong Kong, Every Planet We Reach and uhhhhh idk gotta think about what else) The preview for the next song sounds great too

I haven't watched the video yet. The song's good but I feel like it's building up to a climax that never comes. It left me feeling a bit deflated. I'll probably prefer it on repeat listens though. e: Interesting that the Youtube version is nearly two minutes longer than the actual track. It looks like they had more video than song to work with so they repeated a bit to act as a long outro. I like it, I'd have preferred that on the actual track. stev fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Feb 27, 2020 |

Video is definitely good. I kind of like how they're all picking off something of Murdoc's ensemble in the video. Weird rear end meta building here we go again

First listen: yeah, this is definitely pretty good Second listen: wow this will never leave my head Re: video version vs. audio version chat, I think the main difference is the extended intro, and the outro someone else mentioned Sir Lemming fucked around with this message at 16:11 on Feb 28, 2020 |

was thinking to myself "it's weird that 2D knows french" right before he pulled out the dictionary albarn's croon is a good fit for the language

These 2 songs have been really good and the next one looks cool too. If this is Gorillaz going forward I'm all for it

I wonder how this is being funded since there's no album to buy and no tour to get tickets for. I doubt a drip feed of YouTube revenue and streaming fees will be enough to cover the production of a new song and video every month.

I can't even buy the mp3 off of Amazon, and my torrent site doesn't even have it for download. This is bullshit Gorillaz! I don't want to stream! I'm assuming this gets put on a compilation later, but still.

I can't get this song out of my head, it's so goddamn good. I kept singing the title, so it got stuck in my wife's head too. But she started singing "Fish filet..." and god drat it, now that's stuck in my head!

XIII posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKXloFW_ZCA I think they might actually be circling back round to some lore again, too (I wonder if it's gonna turn out that's not Murdoc on the back of that bike - just for a change). It's me, the guy who cares about Gorillaz lore.

Peter Hook baby, almost sounds like a proper New Order song. All 3 of these have been great!Yvonmukluk posted:Yeah, this song was great. Does Gorillaz have actual lore outside of the little ARG things they do? What are the implications of Murdoc holding that syringe at the end? I assume it's related to Noodle being worried about 2D, like Murdoc is drugging him or something?

Murdoc and 2D hate each other. 2D was never happier than in the Humility video when Murdoc was in jail. Russ even trips him as he rollerblades because he's upset that 2D is so happy. In Murdoc's address to everyone about corona (yes, this is a thing) he named himself, Noodle, Russell and "the other one." I think that's all it is. Also, something about 2D's eyes are white now instead of black? I think that's a lore thing too.

robot roll call posted:Peter Hook baby, almost sounds like a proper New Order song. All 3 of these have been great! Yes Gorillaz has plenty of lore(and notably occurs in real time), though most of it is centered in the first three "Phases"*, Phase 4 has been fairly light on especially significant lore *these correspond more or less to a specific album or set of albums; Phase 1: Self-Titled, G-Sides, and Laika Come Home Phase 2: Demon Days, D-Sides, and the book Rise of The Ogre(long out of print but it's pretty easy to find scans of it online) Phase 3: Plastic Beach, The Fall, and the various songs uncollected in album form(and indeed often don't have an official release at all) from this period that sometimes get collectively referred to as "Sea-Sides" by the fans(especially since there's been several fan made compliations that use that name or something similar) Phase 4: Humanz, The Now Now, and Song Machine

the gist of the lore I think is that it doesn't matter and canon is whatever Jamie wants it to be at any given moment

The people who are into the lore the most all seem to be 14 year olds on reddit and in the youtube comments which is mind boggling to me because they weren’t even born when demon days came out wtf

To put things into context, I'm 29, my birthday is only about 11 days before the date Noodle's birthday is on(Halloween 1990), it was kinda surreal around the time Phase 4 promotional material started coming out that I realized that Gorillaz occur in Real Time in spite of being cartoon people, and that Noodle was in fact the same age as me

New track dropped. Looks like it was intended to be a future Song Machine episode but they released it today because Tony Allen passed.

The CD has 10 tracks. That means that season 1 of Song Machine is either going to be 10 songs, or 9 songs plus the Song Machine theme tune. On the other hand the fact that it’s called Season 1 means they can do this again next year 😻

I missed that it came with the CD, and I want those songs in a better form than YouTube mp3s. Ordered the $25 one, nice and cheap shipping, $3 instead of $15 like I was expecting.
