Gorillaz: The Now Now Review
After only a year, our favorite virtual band is back with new music. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, The Now Now.
This latest album is a definite change from the previous album Humanz, but that’s not to say it’s a bad thing. With the previous album having a lot of collaborations, this one mainly consist of Damon Albarn (voice of 2-D) singing on all the tracks save for Hollywood, Lake Zurich, and Humility.
I for one enjoyed this album a lot. While it doesn’t have as many songs as I wanted it to, it still doesn’t take away from album itself. In my opinion I’ve never heard a bad Gorillaz album. The theme of this album seems interesting as well. It seems to be about sticking together in troubled times but also the character 2-D enjoying his life while Murdoc is locked away in jail, as seen in the music video, Humility.
Apart from Humility, the other songs that I definitely have on repeat are Sorcererz, Fire Flies, Souk Eye, and Hollywood.
I’m conclusion, is this album worth buying and or listening to? Absolutely! If you haven’t heard it now, go listen to them, I give the album 9 out of 10!

Gorillaz Humanz Album Review
While I’m definitely tale on this there was no way I could listen to Gorillaz’ new album without writing a review on it. The Gorillaz’ new album Humanz was released back on April 28th and was their first album release in 6 years. I for one can say that this album did not disappoint.
The thing that I love about Gorillaz is the fact that they’re not defined by one specific genre. In one song you can hear a pop tune, in another you can hear a more hip hop feel and so on. There are definitely a lot of songs on this album that I have on repeat such as, The Apprentice, She’s My Collar, Carnival, Out of Body and a few others.
It seems like the theme of this album is apocalyptic/ post apocalyptic. The creator of Gorillaz, Damon Albarn got this inspiration from all the the crazy events that have happened in the past year especially with the 2016 election. You can especially hear it in the album’s song; Hallelujah Money.
I enjoy the songs hyped up tone, like Ascension, the calm and soothing sounds of Busted and Blue, the techno and r&b sounds from The Apprentice and the outer space vibe from Andromeda.
This will definitely go down as one of the Gorillaz greatest albums in my opinion. Gorillaz: Humanz, if you haven’t listened to the album go check it out now!
