Some Kind of Nature slander will not be tolerated
Cloud of unknowing slander ESPECIALLY won't be tolerated
Stylo is the banger, Empire Ants is the cryer and On Melancholy Hill is their magnum opus
No objections here! agreed
respectfully, there are a few other gorillaz songs that could be considered their magnum opus such as clint eastwood, rhinestone eyes or even better, empire ants. on melancholy hill is cool but it's not much
@@radeline On Melancholy Hill for me is other-worldly, I can’t describe but it always take me to an island I’ve never been before, but full of my memory debris… I love these songs equally though
@@radeline Rhinestone Eyes is one of their best imo. Absolutely iconic breakdown.
I would swap On Melancholy Hill with Empire Ants. Still, every song in this album is perfect imo, so it doesn't really matter lol
Superfast Jellyfish has always been one of my favourite Gorillaz tracks, but I rarely see anyone else give it any recognition. Loved seeing you appreciate it, even in your confusion hahah
That's been a regular listen of mine since this review. I really enjoy everything thats going on and how madly chaotic it is
You what’s weird? I’m a huge Gorillaz fan more so than my friends but they love Superfast Jellyfish and i barely like the song. I’ve always found that interesting lol
Was my favorite, since 2010 when it came out!
@@teejayaiono7180I’m a MASSIVE fan and it’s my favorite song from them. Well at least top 5
The soul singer featured on the two tracks is the late Bobby Womack. He and Damon were working together at the time on an album ‘The Bravest Man in the Universe’ which Damon, and Richard Russell of XL Recordings, produced and wrote for Bobby.
It’s a real joy to see you reacting to Gorillaz. Thanks for this and the Demon Days one, too
i appreciate the insight on Bobby! I clearly had a narrow scope on who he was and what he brought to the table. It took some time to really appreciate what was going on during Cloud of Unknowing but I've come to enjoy Bobby's parts on this album.
Damon was a young man during the 80s so it's like an ode to the music of his youth. I love how this album brought in those retro elements and updated and paired them with modern sounds and vocals.
I can totally see that being the case. Parts of Demon Days felt like it had the same influences. Tame Impala had major 80s influences as well, which I think helps grab a lot of demographics.
I love the way you break it each song down. So many working parts in each one
There’s something great about how you approach your review that instantly makes me love this review. A new sub
I appreciate that very much! This has been a lot of fun and I'm glad people are enjoying this.
You should listen to demon days. Also damon Albarn the singer and main musical mastermind behind this project was in a band called Blur in the 90s. I recommend checking out their 1997 self-titled album it’s great.
Demon Days is on the channel now!
Look up all the Blur you can.
Love your reaction. One of the best albums of all time. Grows on you. Gorillaz is Damon Albarn. A genius, living legend and one of my idols. You may be familiar with Blur ;) If not, their discography is a must.
I absolutely love this album and loved watching you react to it. You were spot on in all of your connections, like Beatles, MGMT, etc. So good!
Stylo and Rhinestones gotta be my favorites from this album 🙌
i love the synths on this whole album! those are definitely my favorites
Masterpiece
Surprised you only have 529 subs! You seem super smart and critical about things. I appreciate your honesty and opinions on the songs and album as a whole. I'll definitely be making that 530 subs and will be excited to see what else you do along the line. I've gotten more into listening to people's analyses on music lately.
I appreciate your feedback very much! I try to dissect as much as I can out of the songs realtime. Thank you for the support as well!
@@lusciousluie Of course! Goodluck on your content!
It’d be cool to hear your thoughts on another album of theirs called Song Machine! Its one of my favorites
Gorillaz is a project by comics artist Jamie Hewlett and musician Damon Albarn, the frontman of Blur in the 90s. Damon likes to incorporate many styles and genres from around the world. Damon is extremely anti war and pro environment. The older music videos have storylines with cartoon band members drawn by Hewlett. Damon likes to feature many artists in this project. I recommend Demon Days.
Empire Ants, plastic beach and Stylo gotta be my faves
Gorillaz - Song Machine reaction when? Loved this and Demon Days reviews!
Plastic Beach is my favorite!!! 🥰
btw, "Pirate Jet" is the most sung sentence in the entire album
"average plastic beach has 3 pirate jets a song" factoid actualy just statistical error. average album has 0 pirate jets per song. Pirate jet Georg, who has electronic beat & sings pirate jet over 10,000 each song, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.
Really underrated reviewer
much appreciated!
Ah man did you listen to it in one go? The pauses interrupt some of the best song transitions I’ve ever heard.
There´s so much gorillaz to explore next!, I would recomend Demon Days
Never listen them ...i thought is some parody
Oh that would be a good one to check out! Will do!
@@lusciousluie also Song mashine is great and they really experiment there lik no name rapper meats Sir Elton John style of experiments ^^ also they have a final song that ends the plastic beach storyline. My absolutely favourite songs on Song mashine however are Momentary Bliss and Pacman they are on point for me when it comes to those funky vibes
The first 7 tracks on this album set it up to be one of the greatest of all time, but honestly when it gets to the middle the album slows down a bit imo. Personally I think there's only a few songs on the second half that are as good as the first, like melancholy hill, plastic beach and pirate jet, and while the other tracks are good, they never added up to the rest for me. Still an amazing project overall tho.
I agree with that. Some tracks near the end fall off for me in quality.
Hey man, the commentary you add is pretty cool. I see you haven’t posted in a while, consider coming back!
Superfast Jellyfish is so underrated, glad you appreciated it lol
Coool
thanks!
I would recommend you to listen to the latest Black Midi album, Hellfire. It´s a jazz-rock fusion, very experimental and unique.
interesting! I have it in my queue to listen to!
One of my favorite gorillaz albums fr
I'm blown away by the album. absolutely loved it.
I think on melancholy hill is my favourite of the album but broken and empire ants are definitely up there too
21:08 like a time machine going to the 80s 🪩
That ship from melancholy hill is the yellow submarine
You should listen to the gorillaz album demon days. If you like this album you will love demon days
I will be checking out Demon Days in the future!
Please react to Ivy - Charmer, they’re not a well known artist but the rock instrumentals are insane and the whole album is really catchy. You should listen to The Strokes, Lil Peep, $uicideboy$, and this super unknown artist EVNTYD they are amazing. Love the vids bro keep it up.
I will take a listen to those ones! i have ideas for indie bands in the future.
29:05 you should watch the video clip:)
You should listen to JEAN DAWSON -CHAOS NOW...I think you'll appreciate the production
i will keep that in mind! Thank you!
listen to demon days
Will do!
Glitter freeze is a sensory nightmare for me. Otherwise great album.
Glitter Freeze needs to be experienced live to be really appreciated 😄
The excessive amount of cuts are killing me
That's what happens when the copyright owners block your videos worldwide.
The middle section of this album is insane
Edit : Except some kind of nature I don’t really like it as well
yeah this album has so much going on. i agree that middle section is very strong. I was definitely harsh on some kind of nature, it took a couple listens for it to settle with me.
First
real 1
After Demon Days expectations were so high that I was very disappointed with that one. Too much sugariness, too much black rap and too much synths. The amount of guests is turning to celebrities parade. If I only know what 's going to be in 10's...
"black rap." Wow dude. Wow.
