12:57 AM - Gorillaz
This is a Thanksgiving Day quickie for you. This week Gorillaz put out D-Sides - a two disc collection of B-sides, demos, remixes, and assorted rarities (in the expected hit-or-miss, but mostly hit, fashion) of songs from their last proper full length, Demon Days. The deluxe edition comes with all sorts of sweet artsy goodies, and you know I'm a fan of those - especially since Jamie Hewlett's work has become a big favorite of mine since Gorillaz started a few years back (I dug Tank Girl but couldn't get into the art style in a full comic book format for whatever reason - maybe my attention span is just too short for spastic and often absurdist illustrated narratives). Though Gorillaz is a group where I still tend to go back to the first release whenever possible, they haven't disappointed yet. We threw disc one on in the van on the way out to Jersey tonight and the looser vibe of those tracks was a perfect fit for crossing the Outerbridge on an increasingly foggy night.
