If I never heard Tender or Song 2 live again it wouldn’t bother me, but great to hear Clover over Dover!

Fantastic! Could something be afoot this year?

Gave me a real buzz that!

I have to say this is probably my favourite piece of work by Damon since 13. Love it!

Demon Days is obviously very good, but I always prefer the melancholy.

Replaced Gun to the head with Magic City on my playlist for the album.

Sounds so much better.

I really don't like Gun to the head. Struggled to listen all the way through. Too cartoony and just sounds like a poor Madness song to me on the first couple of listens. Merrie land is a much better. Definitely lowered my expectations for the album. I do wonder whether Damon has just reached that st...

I really like it after a couple of listens.

Streets ahead of anything I have heard from Gorillaz in the past two years.

Can’t wait for the album!

My post above your post surely falls in to the in between category rather than loathing it?

I do like it, but don’t live it.

I haven't revisited this thread in quite some time, but again I must show my absolute love for this album! It will never grow old to me whatsoever.... Still I get depressed when "Mirror Ball" comes on knowing it's the final track still yearning for more! The album hasn't aged too well for me. There...

Enjoyable interview with Dave from 2015, where he ranks the albums and talks about the bands career.

I’m sure most have read it, but was good to re-read it.

If anyone is interested, here is the link.

Listening to 6 music today, sounds like Steve Lamacq has heard the album. He sounded like he was very impressed, was suggesting that he thought it was a landmark moment in Damon’s career. Interesting to hear, as he wasn’t a big fan of The Magic Whip but has always been a big Blur supporter. Fingers ...

Excited about this album. Really hope Damon is back on form.

I’ve found the last two Gorillaz albums to be a bit dull and uninspiring. I would include his solo album in thsat category.

Definitely one of his better solo albums in my opinion. Some great angst and melancholy on it.

Always loved That’s all I want to do and I wish.

Hope it is a lot better than his actual solo album! Excited about this though, couldn’t muster any excitement for Humanz and still haven’t listened to it in full.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p068t767 Nice interview with Damon, at the end he says he is doing something next year which he is not allowed to talk about! Dare we get our hopes up? I think is something related with the theatre in Paris. I'm loving all the new songs, much better than Humanz, is ...

My god, every time I re-visit the live version they played at the MODE gig I absolutely fall in love, and subsequently a feeling of disappointment ensues that the album version ended up being such a bland song in comparison. It completely lacks Graham's beautiful guitar work and Damon's energy of t...
