Wow you're so cool.

Key 04-28-2017 09:31 PM

Don't insult me.

Initial listens leave me disappointed. Not a lot of punch. Possibly a grower. I might review it in full. Not sure yet.

Funny. These are my same feelings after a first listen that was played in a living room during dinner. I'll give it an actual listen in time.

im going to check it out

Key 04-29-2017 09:09 PM

Jesus this album is huge. But I'm a few tracks in and I'd say it's pretty good. I think i'll enjoy this.

It's just over an hour. Lots of small interlude tracks.

The Identity Matrix 04-29-2017 10:14 PM

Yeah this album is alright.... I gave it a few more listens. I'll come back in a while but right now its a pretty mellow listen. Dig some of the guest spots though...

Gorillaz albums have become less "Gorillaz featuring some people" and more and more "Bunch of people featuring Gorillaz". PLastic Beach grew on me though so we'll see. I'm going to give it a good listen tomorrow on my way to SF.

This record is pretty meh. They recorded that ****ty album on there ipad and this has a little bit better production. Kinda dissapointed they took this much time making this record, but it's ****tier than Plastic Beach, but better than the fall. Doesn't matter if these losers have Danny Brown on a track rapping about stupid ****. Your album isn't that great!

Certainly a lot better than expected I'd say.

Key 04-30-2017 02:42 PM

Continuing on with my first listen and previous thoughts still apply. Haven't heard a song that I've really hated or disliked. The album seems to flow really nicely, which is a nice surprise.

Key 04-30-2017 03:26 PM

Ok, so I'm done with my first listen just about. I have to say, this album is extremely nice. It's a solid Gorillaz album, but it has more going for it as well. I didn't hate any tracks, some I did skip but then went back to them. I'd say this album is just a smidge over the line that crosses between Good and Great. It's not the best album they've made, but there's certainly very little if any bad things to say about it. Surprisingly pleased with this.

DJ Incompetent 05-01-2017 10:23 AM

We Got The Power and Ascension are most enjoyable.

Ringing the great bell out there, above us, sounds pretty important.

Stephen 05-01-2017 05:24 PM

A bit strange with all the guest musicians it feels a bit like a compilation record.

djchameleon 05-01-2017 06:02 PM

I have only listened to the first half but I'm digging it so far.

Justthefacts 07-20-2017 12:25 AM

This records up there. I'd say the best since Demon Days and I'm typically a fan of Plastic Beach, but this record blows it away. Maybe the lack of Snoop Dogg helps.

Tristan_Geoff 07-20-2017 11:09 PM

This album sucks
