Based choice.

Murdoc is super cool!!

Have you heard their latest album yet? If so, how was it?

Also, I remember I went through a phase of listening to and watching the mv to Saturnz Barz before school each morning. It put me at ease for some reason. I still occassionally revisit that song sometimes.

I know i might be asking the impossible here but what do you think is your favorite song by them? O_O

Heck yeah!!

I haven’t heard it yet, but I’ll put it on my list of things to listen to and report back! Would love to hear what you think when you give a listen ( ・∇・)

I still love that song as well!!! Their collabs are peak; The sentient head in DARE still cracks me up too LOL

Song wise I would have to say Tomorrow Comes Today or Kids with Guns, those ones I still listen to very regularly (*´꒳`*)

What about you? Favourite song and character !

I'll report back as well!

no fr, DARE is such good song. I love their mv concepts, the whole animated characters interacting with an actual musician's head is so fucking funny but the song bangs so hard.

oh my god tomorrow comes today is so fucking good. Do they have a harmonica playing in that song? Its so fucking good!!

Harmonica is one of those instruments that I have on my bucket list of instruments I wanna learn. That list isn't that long tbf, its got Harmonica, Piano, Harp, Guitar and Cello. But I don't know how to play any so far and it feels like I'm already too old...ahhh

I'd like some money so I can buy these instruments and get classes already.

Anyway, about Gorillaz, a song that completely unexpectedly became one of my favorites was Sleeping Powder. Its so damn good and the video is very trippy. I also love Tranz and She's My Collar too and On Melancholy Hill...GOSH i love too many songs by them.

and my favorite character has to be 2d lmao
he's a total goofball and I love him

Woo! and FACTS !! The world building goes crazy; I forget a lot of their storyline now, but back in the day I was hella invested in the MV plot lines LOL

Honestly you should note the bullet and just grab one of those; take a look on fb marketplace, people are always selling instruments! Even if lessons are on the pricy side, experimentation is free, and that way you can at least start playing around with the sounds they make (￣∇￣)

Ouuu, I can’t remember them by the name alone (aside from melancholy hill), so I’ll listen to it when I’m home and see if it jogs my memory!! I love a good trippy song; brings back good memories hehe

2D is a goated choice; one of the best characters to draw too because of the hollow eyeballs! I was obsessed with that photo of him in the newsboy cap smoking a cigarette (´∀｀)

I really ought to brush up on the story lines cause im so behind on that.

maybe I should just get it but I'd get so many noise complaints given that I live in an apartment...I hear footsteps from the apartment above all the time and have to walk real slow so I don't bombard the guy living below us with footsteps too...so imagine if I started playing a harmonica all of a sudden. I can def imagine someone yelling "SHUT THE FUCK UP" at me from the hallway or something lmao

I did use to have a harmonica though but idk where it went-

let me know what you think of Tranz and She's my Collar and Sleeping Powder. They're all so good. I just thought of another one too, Style. That song is such a banger and it has Bruce Willis in the mv too lmao

I haven't tried drawing any of them but lowkey I have a small sketchbook that I draw random anime characters in. Whenever I watch an anime, if I come across a frame I really like I'll try to draw it in that book and maybe I'll draw the band in there too!

Update: watched the Sleeping Powder mv and LOVED IT ! It gives me the same trippy + funky vibe as some Daft Punk songs ٩( ᐛ )و

Lesgooo
I dont see sleeping powder get that much love so im glad you liked it!!

Yknow, Daft Punk is a band that I havent really done a deep dive on. Ive heard their popular songs but i am missing out on so much more when it comes to Daft Punk. Such a cool name for a band too

I hear ya on that lol.
Gotta reserve the harmonica for when you’re outside in a field, to emulate the “ye ole country man watching tumbleweeds in a godforsaken world” type vibe !

I really liked tranz and LOVED she’s my collar, still have to listen to Sleeping Powder ٩( ᐛ )و great recommendations !

And yooo that’s dope!! You should definitely do that, like a book of notable characters from anything and everything. I made a Moodboard of panels from the manga Blame! , and I printed it out to use as a binder cover hehe

Exactly, out in fields, playing for the cows and the pigs and the elephants as the world crumbles around me.

Eyy im glad you loved those songs. They are so damn good!! I re-listened to Tranz yesterday and its still stuck in my head.

Do you listen to the strokes btw? Their album "The New Abnormal" is so fucking good!!! Not a single skip on that whole album, but my personal favorites have to be Selfless, Bad Decisions, Why are Sundays So Depressing and The Adults are Talking, in no particular order pfc.

Ooh thats such an cool design idea for a binder cover. And Blame has such a cool concept. Ahhh

Exactly!

I used to listen to the strokes in high school / uni, but now I just have a few on my song rotations! I have a friend who’s obsessed with Julien Casablancas so I get the occasional infodump about them haha

Is it meant to be listened to in order or just a compilation of good songs?

And yessss Blame has outstanding art!! There’s like 3 lines of dialogue but it still managed to be such a cool story !!!

I say listen to it in order, not that it has a story or anything...I can't remember if the songs flow into each other or not but the album is fire tho!

Honestly, I heard different songs at different times until I finally decided to listen to the whole album. I had never heard of the strokes before that, but it was actually such a banger album. Personally, I'd give it a 10/10.

And yeah, I love how Blame is so minimal in its text...that's so difficult to do :<
ik there is a competition for "silent" mangas, where you can't use any words. I could never, whenever I try to write a manga, i can't write minimally. Its a real talent fr to just rely on your pristine world building and illustration to speak for itself.
