Gorillaz
|
Released: 9th May 2005.
It's been a few years since their self-titled debut album, but the Gorillaz are finally back. Have the four cartoon hip-hop monkeys and their real life companions still got that magic touch? Well, possibly. Don't get me wrong, "Feel Good Inc" is a phenomenal song... eventually. It's such a totally random song that it's very hard to get into initially. Once you do get into it though, you'll have it stuck in your head. A very interesting comeback.
The Gorillaz are arguably guilty of being slightly overrated, but this is a solid comeback for them after three years away. "Feel Good Inc" sounds very disjointed on its first few listens, but a bouncy beat and Damon Albarn's natural vocals help save this and cement it into the head.
