Day 3: Gorillaz - Plastic Beach

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what this album sounds like, Damon called it their "most pop" up until this point, and it's definitely more pop as Gorillaz and Demon Days were both more rock centered, but it's also some of the weirdest pop I've heard and I actually haven't really heard this kind of sound outside of Gorillaz music.

This sound has hits and misses... sometimes it sounds a little too goofy, messy and off key for its own good. But then the massive highlights on this album like Rhinestone Eyes, On Melancholy Hill, Empire Ants and Pirate Jet (all top tier songs) wouldn't exist.

If you care about Gorillaz I recommend reading a little about the production and concept of the album. Seems to be a whole creative vision and lot of effort and energy put into this. Adding a lot of different guests and sounds and creating this mesh of pop, electro, hip hop and funk music. The concept is somewhere between an environmentalist / anti consumerist message and world building of a fantasy land. It's not really a story there though more of a vibe.

I don't like it as much as the earlier Gorillaz albums. I don't think it's as tight or fun to listen to. But it's unique, it's ambitious, they wanted to change their sound and they went for it all the way and I appreciate the vision.

Gorillaz - The Fall

Not too much to say about this album as this is more of a B sides album created on tour for Plastic Beach. It's a lot of electronic songs recorded on an iPad (a 2010 iPad for that matter) which makes sense while listening to a lot of them.

I don't recommend skipping this album while listening to Gorillaz discography because it does have a few highlights like Revolving Doors, Little Pink Plastic Bags, Bobby In Phoenix, but overall it's a little bland, dated, awkward and forgettable and the songs mesh into each other.

Plastic Beach is awkward too but it has a lot more personality.

If we're back to the Radiohead comparisons, this is no "Amnesiac". It's more of a extra demo album to give to the fans.

I wanna listen to the Nicki Minaj album so starting day 4 early

Lloyd Banks album really good too

I’m a day late but Plastic Beach might still be my favorite Gorillaz album.
Haven’t heard anything post Humanz tho because Humanz was MID

Teenage Dream deserved better and Thank Me Later being just as good as Plastic Beach feels sorta weird to me and im not even a gorillaz fan

But i f*** w this thread fr

Pink Friday 😍

complete edition 🤔

I really wanted Gorillaz to be a 5 star but I'm sure we'll get one

And take it a compliment to TML

I'm doing standard version but obv Super Bass is a classic

Teenage Dream is the best album you’ve reviewed so far tbh
