A side project doesn't usually hit gold, especially when said project is a quirky virtual collective fronted by cartoon characters. But the first, self-titled album by Gorillaz--the brainchild of illustrator Jamie Hewlett and Blur frontman Damon Albarn--actually hit platinum and turned into a surprise worldwide hit. Naturally expectations were a lot higher for Gorillaz's sophomore effort, but Demon Days actually is even better than its predecessor. With producer Dan "the Automator" Nakamura gone, Albarn, a.k.a. 2D, has paired up with DJ Danger Mouse (responsible for the infamous Grey Album that illegally mixed the Beatles and Jay-Z) to steer the musical ship, while a whole new slew of guests enlivens the proceedings. Albarn has described Demon Days as being darker, but there's a real kooky dance-party vibe coursing through the CD. Despite its somber tone, "Kids with Guns" is lifted by a killer bass line, for instance, while the catchy first single, "Feel Good Inc," is augmented by an appealing contribution from De La Soul. Other noteworthy guests include Roots Manuva and Tricky collaborator Martina Topley-Bird on the dubby "All Alone" and Happy Mondays singer Shaun Ryder on the bouncy "DARE." And yet it's a 69-year-old actor who gets to deliver the most baffling contribution--just listen to Dennis Hopper's spoken-word narrative on "Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head."

Different Can Be Good
Gorillaz is a very different type of band. They are represented by cartoon characters and you will hardly ever see their faces. That's not all that is different. The Main Stream is not used to hearing music like this. The music is generally a softer music that you would listen to while relaxing. There are soothing tones an they generally talk about completely random things. This is music without meaning, and I love it.

Songs like Feel Good Inc. are based more of Rap, but most of their songs are just melodies or stories about a town being taken over. If I could describe their music I would say it's Dr. Seuss turned into music. It's very enjoyable to listen to and will be one of your favorite albums if you like to relax.

Demon Days
I bought the album for only a few songs, but found that the songs were much better than I expected. It also has a good range of different genres all in one album. For the most part, it was very enjoyable, only a couple of songs were a bit grating.

This music soothes even the savage beast. I prefer the middle of this cd.

Kids with Guns - a masterpiece
White Light - a daring narrative
DARE is a kinky track

What a Beautiful Masterpiece!
I mean, WOW! I love Electronic Music, and I can't seem to get enough of it! But this album is great! Not only is it Electronic, it blends acoustic beats and industrial samples and stretches them to the perfect pitches!

It is pure beauty! I absolutely LOVE this album, it may not be as good as the FIRST Gorillaz Album, but it is very, very close!

PERFECT FOR A CRUISE AROUND TOWN!
