'How Far?' featuring the late Tony Allen, and Skepta, has been released as a tribute to Allen.



First one from this project I dislike, but I appreciate the sentiment.

Apparently this also isn't 'episode 4' of Song Machine, but has been released under that name on streaming so I'm not sure!

RIP Tony Allen, sad that he didn't get to see this being released.

Definitely the weakest of the Gorillaz releases this year but it's still decent, just sounds a bit more like an album track. Shame there aren't any Damon Albarn vocals on this one.

This is alright, a bit dull though.



So far, I'd rank them:

1. Momentary Bliss
2. Aries
3. Desole
4. Friday 13th
5. How Far?

Titled 'PAC-MAN' and is out at 19:30! Hopefully it's better than the last two disappointing releases.

It's decent, but it feels too short and ends quite abruptly

The preview at the end of the 'PAC-MAN' video already sounded very promising, another exciting sounding collaborator as well!

Also forgot to comment about 'PAC-MAN' but that was another fab song from them, a very catchy instrumental and a great performance from ScHoolboy Q. Didn't quite live up to the quality of the first 3 Song Machine tracks but a big improvement on 'Friday 13th' (which I still think was quite good but massively outclassed by everything else which has all been among my favourite stuff they have ever put out).

Momentary Bliss > Désolé > Aries > PAC-MAN >> Friday 13th (> How Far? - not really counting this as part of the series)

Also, a Beck collab titled 'Los Angeles' recently leaked in full, that's expected to be a future Song Machine release!

Enjoyed that one! Robert Smith has made a few great non-Cure collaborations, and this one's good as well. I think the chances of Gorillaz having a big hit are long past them, but this one would be a welcome addition.

Well this is great news for several reasons! a) that we are actually getting a full album, b) that there are still plenty more exciting collaborators to come and c) that it's described as 'season one' presumably meaning this will be continuing after the album as well (unless they're pulling a Calvin Harris). *.* Particularly looking forward to the songs with Elton John, EARTHGANG and JPEGMAFIA (and Robert Smith ofc as I haven't listened to this new song yet x) but nearly every name on there is at least somewhat intriguing.

I echo all of the comments above - only really loved ‘Aries’ so far but some of the features on the album sound class.
