In the best year for Damon Albarn Fans this was the first Gorillaz album since song machine in lockdown and the first peace of gorillaz material since the meanwhile ep. There are some really strong songs on this album. Like REALLY strong but there are a few songs which just let it down (especially on the deluxe album really but I forgot to select that one....). My personal favourite track is Skinny Ape or Oil with Stevie Nicks. Oil is a great example of how a feature should be with gorillaz. Not taking over the song with slight Damon vocals it should be almost like a duet. Tarantula is also a great showcase of 55 y/o Damons vocals and is a happy sounding song with not so happy lyrics just like skinny ape. Skinny Ape is incredible in the sense of it's so morbid but you can't help but want to dance for whatever reason. 4/5 would be higher but yeah. Still a decent album.
