Our Take

GORILLAZ Plastic Beach (2010)

In a world full of plastic, the Gorillaz have crafted an album that exudes an otherworldly coolness. Plastic Beach is a sonic odyssey that takes you on a journey through the mind of Damon Albarn and his cartoon cohorts. From the opening track "Orchestral Intro," it's clear that this album is going to be a wild ride.

The production on Plastic Beach is top-notch, with Albarn and producer Danger Mouse creating a soundscape that is both futuristic and retro. The album is a melting pot of genres, blending hip-hop, pop, and electronica with ease. Tracks like "Rhinestone Eyes" and "Stylo" are infectious and will have you dancing in your living room.

The guest appearances on Plastic Beach are a who's who of the music industry, with contributions from artists like Snoop Dogg, Lou Reed, and Mos Def. Each guest brings their own unique flair to the album, adding layers of depth and intrigue.

But it's not all glitz and glamour on Plastic Beach. Tracks like "On Melancholy Hill" and "Empire Ants" showcase a softer, more introspective side of the Gorillaz, proving that they are more than just a gimmick.

Overall, Plastic Beach is a triumph for the Gorillaz. It's a bold, adventurous album that pushes the boundaries of what pop music can be. So grab your inflatable dolphin and dive into the world of Plastic Beach. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Gorillaz

GORILLAZ is the brainchild of the enigmatic Damon Albarn, known for being the lead singer of the Britpop band Blur. Formed in 1998, this virtual band consists of four animated members: 2-D, Murdoc Niccals, Noodle, and Russel Hobbs. With their unconventional blend of electronica, hip-hop, and alternative rock, GORILLAZ have carved out their own unique space in the music industry. Their self-titled debut album, released in 2001, was a game-changer, featuring standout tracks like "Clint Eastwood" and "19-2000." Since then, they have continued to push boundaries with their genre-defying sound and innovative visual concepts. GORILLAZ have collaborated with a diverse range of artists, from hip-hop legends like De La Soul and MF DOOM to pop icons like Elton John and Beck. Despite their unconventional approach, GORILLAZ have garnered critical acclaim and commercial success. Their 2010 album "Plastic Beach" was a sonic journey through a dystopian world filled with haunting melodies and thought-provoking lyrics. And who can forget their chart-topping hit "Feel Good Inc.," with its infectious hook and clever wordplay? With their latest release, "Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez," GORILLAZ continue to defy expectations and push the boundaries of what a virtual band can achieve. Just like their animated counterparts, the members of GORILLAZ are constantly evolving and reinventing themselves, proving that creativity knows no bounds. Love them or hate them, you can't deny the impact that GORILLAZ have had on the music industry. So sit back, relax, and let the Gorillaz take you on a musical journey like no other.
