The facile songs of Gorillaz'sPlastic Beach(2010) relied on rhythmic tricks (the bouncing synth-pop beat a` laSafety DanceofStylo, the swampy African polyrhythm of the rapSweepstakes, vocal tricks (the anemic rigmarole ofRhinestone, the easy-listening laments ofOn Melancholy HillandTo Binge) or instrumental tricks (the smooth orchestral rap ofWelcome To The World Of The Plastic Beach, the lively Middle Eastern dance with industrial beat that battles the rap ofWhite Flag) to sustain interest.

>open youtube

>wahhhh my cartoon band doesn't agree with my political views or is making shallow political statements!!

This board never ceases to amaze me. Gorillaz was never some bastion of artistic credibility. They're a fucking cartoon band masterminded by a guy from a shitty pop rock band. They were very clearly for little kids when they first came out, not that there's anything wrong with that. They have some good pop music, and that's really all you can ask from Damon. This song in particular isn't that bad, nothing I'd listen to again but it wasn't some travesty. Whether I disagree with the lyrics or not is completely irrelevant to me. I'm not expecting some enlightened political insight on America from a Brit or from a rapper.

The songs I've heard from this album indicate that Gorillaz as a project is running low on steam. The good ideas are long past us, it seems.

To be honest the only track I've truly disliked at this point is We've Got the Power. I loved Ascension, this, and Andromeda, and thought Saturnz Barz and Hallelujah Money was ok. I'm mostly excited for the Danny Brown and De La Soul tracks.
>>
>>72029041
Ascension and this are further proof that Pusha and Vince will murder the shit out of any feature they are on. I'm with you that the only track I'm not big on is We've Got the Power. Saturnz Barz is slowly growing on me. I went from meh to actually liking it a lot more.
>>
>>72028908
What gets me is that Demon Days was clearly about the middle east under Bush but he had nothing to say about the ongoing conflict under Obama. Deciding to base Plastic Beach on consumerism.

plus now we have lyrics like
>Obama is gone, who is left to save us?


Me being generous to his character I'm going to guess Damon just sat back and let his guests write most of the lyrics

Even if you totally disregard the lyrics, this song still sucks. It is just musically terribly.
>>
>>72029110
>Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
I don't think that this lyric is nearly as bad as people think. Pusha obviously doesn't think Obama is some superhero or some shit. The Black community saw someone who might give a shit about them. Basically now that he is gone, who in the presidency will actually give a shit about their struggles?

Not that anon but I think there's a difference with Dirty Harry. That song didn't feel like it beat you over the head, it felt satirical. It attempts to cynically sell you this message of glamorizing war BEFORE the feature comes in and drops the point that war's actually kind of shit. It works its way up to the message naturally. These new songs don't have that buildup, we're hitting the ground running with the equivalent of the Bootie Brown feature and it just sounds excessive. I can't even call this cynical commentary, it's more like fearmongering now.

Why does Damon feel entitled to making music about American politics?

All of the new songs but Andromeda are shit.
Damon is a sellout letting others write all the album songs for him and using a fucking iPad again. He cares more about bitching about racism and Trump than making good music. Fuck him. I've lost all respect for him.
>>
>>72031916
This.
Demon Days not once mentions Bush by name. Not even 911, which although is technically a single was released at the same time as the album.
These new songs are shitty and the lyrics aren't clever.

>>72013785

It's a shame too because the music itself is pretty good in spite of the lyrics.

This is only true for Andromeda, which is unsurprisingly the case because it is one of two non-political songs released so far.

I dunno, I like Andromeda but it sounds like something Two Door Cinema Club would've put out beatwise. My favorite beat would probably go to Ascension

man fuck Damon. I get people have political dissent for everything, but fucking christ whenever some radical hippie doesn't get his fucking way its the fucking end of the world- oh wait, I though George W already ended the world after both of his separate elections. And then of course, obama and bush are very similar, but somehow he can't quite bring himself to say anything about the endless warring pushed by the POTUS then, huh?
I'm done, Saturnz barz was kinda ok, but this faggoty political panicking is such a turn off.

Are you stupid? They're not even in the same genres to each other.
Ascension is rap hip hop, We Got the Power is, hard to say, but it's just generic feel good, and Andromeda is dance electronic.
