| CUSTOMER REVIEWS: | 4/5 - Fantastic return
I was a huge fan of Gorillaz when they released their first CD. The catchy beats and trippy lyrics were stuck in my head for months, but then, they were gone. Now, time has passed, and Gorillaz are back, and they don't dissapoint.
Intro - 5/10: Very odd, a very good introduction to a very strange and enjoyable CD, but it's not really a song.
Last Living souls - 7/10: Pretty good beat, with an enjoyable section near the end by 2-D.
Kids with guns - 7/10: This one is sung very much like Last living souls, pretty good.
O-green world - 8/10: One of the better sounding songs on the CD, intense vocals by 2-D.
Dirt harry - 9/10: One of my favorites. A very cool beat with the voices of 2-D and what sounds like a child choir.
Feel Good inc. - 10/10: Easily the catchiest song on the CD, probably why this is the CD's chosen single. Murdoc plays an amazing beat on his guitar in this one.
El manana - 10/10: Another one of my favorites. This one sounds very deep and emotional, and is good to listen too when you are alone.
Every Planet we reach is dead - 7/10: You will haft to listen to this one a few times before you start to like it. The lyrics are very catchy and has a very strange/enjoyable beat.
November has come - 8/10: this one is good. A very good rap and a chorus by 2-D sounds very soothing.
All alone - 8/10: Another rap song. The rap sounds pretty cool, but the vocals by the lady near the end are a little over the top.
White light - 3/10: this one is just scary to listen too, nuff said.
Dare - 6/10: okay song, some of the singing is done by a wierd womenly voice, which doesn't sound so great.
Fire comming out of a monkeys head - 7/10: More of a story then a song, it still does sound pretty good when the narrator stops talking and 2-D sings his verses.
Don't get lost in Heaven - 5/10: Not my favorite, sounds wierd, but not in a good way.
Demon days - 7/10: Another wierd one, allot like the intro. This just doesnt sound like a real song, but it's still interesting.
5/5 - So. Good.
I loved this CD with a passion! It's different rom their first CD but was still amazing. I loved Feel Good INC. It just made me wanna dance forever. El Manana, Dirty Harry and Fire Coming Out f The Monkey's Head were among my other faves even though the other songs on the album were mind-blowing as well. I recommend this CD to everyone ever.
4/5 - Not as good as first but it can't be
One word that will explain this album... different. The album is a little off the theme of their debut and not as good but is still worth at least a listen. Some tracks really live up to what the Gorillaz can do and to their first album and some don't fall into that but I'm not saying that they are bad but that some Gorillaz fans will not enjoy the tracks as much. These tracks are:
Kids With Guns, Feel Good Inc, November Has Come, and Dare.
What I'm really saying is that these tracks would fit in well into the old album and the others are a little different. Really all the tracks are great and I love the CD myself except for the two last tracks. Both Don't Get Lost In Heaven and Demon Days are sung by the London Choir thingie. I did not buy this album to listen to a british choir and the songs are just bad, especially the album titled Demon Days track. Now I know why it's the last one. Even with a few negatives this album is really worth listening to. Personally I love it. A good point is that you get the coolest little picture book in it that has a picture to each track.
Demon Days - 8.1 / 10 |
