Anybody out there like Gorillaz? Cause I love 'em. I think, both on a design/conceptual level and musically, they are one of the best things to happen in years. Their new Album Demon Days is coming out on the 23rd of this month. If you visit this website you can listen to or watch their new single, Feel Good Inc. Laters, -Vince- P.S. - Hundredth Post.

Yeah, I'm madly in love with that art style too.
I'm completely sure you know this already, but I'll say it anyway, because I have free speech: As far as I know, Jamie Hewlett is the main artist behind Gorillaz.
If you haven't seen his Tank Girl stuff, I suggest you check it out. It's more of the same. (which is a good thing, heh heh)

Yeah Tank Girl really cool, but it was hard to read with all the c@ckney. Hewlett also did a cover and some interior pages for Grant Morrison's Doom Patrol back in the day. I really wish that wanker would put together an art book.

Oh, I picked up the CD last week. I got the special edition that came with a DVD with the videos for Feel Good Inc. as well as a code to unlock a secret mp3 off the website. Geeky, I know, but d**n I love this band.
The new CD is pretty different from the old one. This one's more rhythm driven and there's less lyrical content as Del didn't return for this album. It took a few listens to get used to it, but its a great album once you do.
There's some amazing new art in the booklet as well. Jaime Hewlett shines once more! Highly reccomended, we had many of its songs playing during the ACCA convention.
