Product Description
Five years on from the release of Demon Days, Murdoc Niccals and co. return with Gorillaz. The band has taken up residence, recording on a secret floating island deep in the South Pacific, a Plastic Beach HQ, made up of the detritus, debris and washed up remnants of humanity. This Plastic Beach is the furthest point from any landmass on Earth; the most deserted spot on the planet.
As the world's biggest animated band, Gorillaz formed in 1998, and have since sold 12 million copies over two albums Gorillaz (2000) and Demon Days (2005). They have hit number 1 in more than a dozen countries and picked up awards including Grammys, Novellos, VMAs and EMAs.
In true Gorillaz fashion, Plastic Beach features collaborations with some of the biggest names in hip hop, pop and rock from both the past and the present with collaborators such as Snoop Dogg, Bobby Womack, Mos Def, Mark E. Smith of The Fall & Lou Reed.
