    where's this intel from?

    Also I'll never understand why Humanz isn't beloved but that's a whole other story

    I don't mean to give you shit, but "I love that album that I absolutely do not listen to in its original intended format" is a hilarious take.

    If you delete sex dungeon party, the standard edition is pretty flawless

    Of course it is, but it's the act of totally rearranging the album and adding non-album material and then full throatedly saying "I love this album" that's just so funny to me.

    I mean, I made a single album out of the Green Day Trilogy and I love the mix I made but I can't say I love the Trilogy. Clearly I don't because I spliced it to shit.

    Eh, semantics. Their last few had sequencing that sort of felt like collections of songs anyway. This is their first in awhile to feel cohesive and like it’s telling a story

    Such a banger. Produced by Four Tet

    I did not totally rearrange it actually! swapped the interludes and a few songs I don't like for some b-sides I do like, not sure why you're making a big deal out of that lol

    I'm not trying to make a big deal out of it, I found it funny and pointed it out.

    Humanz is way underrated in general. It’s just as good as Plastic Beach for me.

    Busted and Blue may be my favourite Gorillaz song overall

    This is quite lovely. The most I’ve loved a Gorillaz album right out of the gate since Plastic Beach

    the lyrical connection between Empty Dream Machine and Shadowy Light is so cool

    I liked Mountain on first listen more than Cracker Island, I'll say that. Might even end up in top 5 favorite albums of theirs idk

    This one is less immediate than the last. After two listens I like it but I’m struggling to connect.
