Christ almighty what garbage. Hopefully this is just a b-side like Rock It

What the fuck is this shit. At least the bad songs on Plastic Beach were nice to listen to, if nothing else.

>all those backlashing comments
>"I don't like it! It sounds like trash!"
>"you only listen to feel good Inc your not a real fan!"

Omg this song is just trash. Yes I hate the political undertones, yes it's a demo but you'd have to be delusional to think it's anything but trash

What the hell do you have against Rock It?

Hate the composition so far, but the vocal is fantastic. Really hope the album doesn't end up being too political. And the christian overtone kind of conflicts with Murdoc being leader of the band, lore wise.

There are no bad songs on Plastic Beach.

The singer's voice is fantastic and powerful. The visuals really enhanced the cheesiness of the message which is way too direct. Don't know how they thought that would be helpful on an already unpolished track.

The great thing about Plastic Beach was that it was more evocative rather than preachy, even though it was about over population and the effect humans have on the world. It's better to inspire people to think about a topic and come to conclusions themselves than to tell people what to think. It very rarely comes across well to anyone but those arm chair activists that are shallow enough to like being pandered to.

Stylo and Broken gave me chills, where as this is more like Dirty Harry off of Demon Days which I was only able to like for it's musical value after listening to it without the cringy music video. Imagery can do a lot to color a person's impressions of lyrics. But yeah, this track seems too heavy handed, and not really insightful or interesting enough to back up the rather typical message.

Sweepstakes was the worst one, and even that one as mediocre at worst.

It's live version is great though

Oh boy, pandering to the conspiracy theory crowd. I'm as anxious as I am hyped. Please don't be preachy shit and New World Order symbol dropping nonsense as the theme of this album.

it's probably still being worked on. If you remember they used to release proto songs pre-release in previous albums too. Like electric shock and people.

I like Trump too guys but get real, Gorillaz have always been political. This is nothing new.

That said I love this so much

I like Sweepstakes... Far from my favorite but I tend to not be as into the rap stuff with rare exception. But the composition is fun and the lyrics got a laugh out of me.

I've not checked out the live version yet. Gonna have to get on it. I think Melancholy Hill is the weakest song, personally. Still not a song I hate but it's pretty dull compared to the rest of the album. Sure as fuck wish the Rhinestone Eyes video got made. Way more video worthy song, and the storyboards looked incredible.

I don't like Trump but I don't want Trump whining to touch things I like. So far it's been negligible or I could just enjoy schadenfreude in something I didn't really care about.
Here's hoping it's either minor or they do their typical hide it under 52 layers of beans and allegory. I mean they're already doing it but still....

Well it's obviously ironic affectation of a preacher in the worship of money

>>89261588
I get that, I like the concept, but the lyrics are the worst kind of slam poetry garbage. It's just too direct, and not really interesting or clever in it's wording. And the background imagery makes the video even worse.

>>89256996
I like this as a song
I couldnt care less about what its trying to say
