UK indie band Gorillaz need no introduction. Since its beginnings as the first virtual band back in 1998, the band, created by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, has released three studio albums ( Gorillaz , Demon Days and Plastic Beach) , two B-side compilations and a bunch of DVDs, all with equal critical and commercial success. Damon Albarn is the only permanent musical contributor to the band, which is a collaboration between various musicians. Their style is broad, with a large number of alternative influences including alt rock, hip-hop, and electronica. At the end of 2010, [...]

Around here, there's never an off day, especially with the presence of Twitter, Kanye West, Lady Gaga, M.I.A., Damon Albarn, and a whole slew of others. So while you were busy opening gifts, returning said gifts, and toasting to the turn of the decade, we were doing all of it with our eyes glued to our laptops and iPhone screens. And while our loved ones may have been perplexed by our seemingly untreatable addiction to keeping up with every bit of breaking news, they'll never understand that our greatest gift is being able to keep you - our loyal readers [...]

2010 was a fantastic year for music and a very good start to a new decade of it.

“An album made on an iPad? How will that work?” That’s the question that probably ran through everyone’s mind when they heard that Damon Albarn ’s next Gorillaz project was made on the road with Apple’s latest product. Its apps make for some interesting noises, but a whole album of them sounded like a disaster waiting to happen. Luckily, the former Blur frontman made it clear that other instruments were put into play as well, making the iPad another accessory in his long list of tools. So how does this fan club experiment hold up? [...]

Gorillaz , um projeto paralelo de Damon Albarn e Jamie Hewlett (e vários convidados) que teve sua ascensão com um CD de estreia cheio de hits, cresceu no segundo álbum, experimentou novos sons em um terceiro álbum que dividiu opiniões, termina agora com uma "queda", o novo álbum The Fall . Mas a queda está presente apenas no nome do álbum, e a sonoridade encontrada em The Fall representa uma continuidade em relação ao esforço anterior, Plastic Beach , com a adição de elementos mais eletrônicos, cortesia especial da Apple e seu [...]

The Fall was released yesterday, ending the Gorillaz Advente calendar . The album was created while the Gorillaz were on tour with each track representing a handful of cities. A lot of people have complained about how the album doesn't sound like the usual Gorillaz. As right as they may or may not be, can you really define a Gorillaz sound? What I love so much about Gorillaz is their persistent expanding sound. I see too many groups stick with a sound and never experiment - and The Fall is [...]
