Editorial Reviews
A side project doesn\'t usually hit gold,
especially when said project is a quirky virtual
collective fronted by cartoon characters.
But the first, self-titled album by
Gorillaz--the brainchild of illustrator
Jamie Hewlett and Blur frontman Damon
Albarn--actually hit platinum and turned
into a surprise worldwide hit.
Naturally expectations were a lot higher for
Gorillaz\'s sophomore effort, but Demon Days
actually is even better than its predecessor. With
producer Dan \"the Automator\" Nakamura gone,
Albarn, a.k.a. 2D, has paired up with DJ Danger
Mouse (responsible for the infamous Grey Album
that illegally mixed the Beatles and Jay-Z) to
steer the musical ship, while a whole new slew of
guests enlivens the proceedings.
Albarn has described Demon Days as being darker,
but there\'s a real kooky dance-party vibe
coursing through the CD. Despite its somber tone,
\"Kids with Guns\" is lifted by a killer bass
line, for instance, while the catchy first single,
\"Feel Good Inc,\" is augmented by an appealing
contribution from De La Soul. Other noteworthy
guests include Roots Manuva and Tricky
collaborator Martina Topley-Bird on the dubby
\"All Alone\" and Happy Mondays singer Shaun Ryder
on the bouncy \"DARE.\"
And yet it\'s a 69-year-old actor who gets to
deliver the most baffling
contribution--just listen to Dennis
Hopper\'s spoken-word narrative on \"Fire
Coming Out of the Monkey\'s Head.\"
