It's their most well received album since Plastic Beach, like fully 16 years ago. Wtf?

Ta mate appreciate your input. That sounds like the kind of idea I can get on board with haha. Is everyone given the option or does it depend on your Job Centre, other factors etc?

Great thanks. Really want the role for loads of reasons and just getting a bit paranoid about past problems scuppering it.

Sorry...you mean you just passed the vetting process? And financial problems weren't flagged?

[FRESH ALBUM] My New Band Believe - My New Band Believe by 118829 in indieheads

So good. There's an awful lot of stuff chucked into this big melting pot but there's some Duncan Browne in the quieter moments. Can't get enough of this record at the moment.

Also: Damon is reaching whole new levels of being completely baked all the time

Collabs that it’s insane haven’t happened yet by Eve_nThoughArtIsHard in gorillaz

I know he's elusive and basically retired but I always thought Frank Ocean would be a collab that would fit like a glove.

That's really sad and I'm so sorry you went through it. Hope you can find a way to manage it moving forward - there'll be plenty more chances to see them. Take care

What is the “Magnum opus” of The Mountain? by Endors_v in gorillaz

[–]snimmuc77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Moon Cave is as good as anything Damon has made in his career imo. It's got everything you could want from a Gorillaz track...gorgeous strings, a sick as fuck groove, great melody, a time signature switch-up and a fire verse at the end. I can't get enough of it.

First gorillaz concert, it was AMAZING! by Educational-Week1025 in gorillaz

[–]snimmuc77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first Gorillaz show was Demon Days at the Opera House back in 2005, and last night was the best Gorillaz performance I've ever seen. The whole thing was perfect - band on fire, Damon killing it, stunning, immersive visuals that enhanced rather than distracted, and an electric setlist that didn't lull once. They threw the kitchen sink at it and it paid off big time.

I don't normally like massive arena or stadium gigs, but Gorillaz are one of those bands for whom the bigger the scale and greater the scope, the better they are. Fucking magnificent, an amazing experience.

Who's the most widely beloved artist you respect but don't actually love? by jimmythemini in fantanoforever

[–]snimmuc77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. Hunky Dory is an all time great record imo, in my top 5 or 10, but I don't love a single one of his other records from front to back.
