Compared to the VInce Staples collab, this one is *much easier* listening. It's actually got a really nice and somewhat fun tempo.
You'll find this track as part of Damon's upcoming album Humanz, out on April 28th and available for pre-order here.

Okay, so a third new track from Gorillaz, and this one also sounds quite different to the former two (ft Vince Staples and D.R.A.M.). I actually think I'm finding this one the least-enjoyable of the lot.
To be fair, Jehnny Beth's vocals add a nice t...

Dayamn, this comes in hot. Clearly a great combo, and I'm loving the slight drum & bass twist. Or... is it trap? Baauer-esque?

OMG OMG OMG THEY'RE BACK! GORILLAZ ARE BACK!
I mean, we knew this was coming, but it's finally here, and I'm still trying to let it settle in. Do I like this song? I... I don't know yet. It's going to take a little while to digest, and I'm going to ...

Covering one of the world's favorite bands can be a risky move, but this daytime disco interpretation kills it.
Given that the man behind this version if filous, it came as little surprise when I found myself absolutely in love. LissA's vocals add a...

I guess I'm in a 2001 mood, because for the second day in a row, today's Song of the Day features a song released that year.
Gorillaz's "Sound Check" filled the middle portion of the band's debut, self-titled album in a most-wonderful way. To this d...

Somebody stop me! Five reviews in 30 minutes...okay, this'll probably be the last one for a little while.
Unlike Pluto's remix of "Client Eastwood" caught my attention while perusing around SoundCloud and I just couldn't resist but share.
