Free Music Notes for D-Sides (Deluxe Edition)Free Music Review: More than D-Sides Hit: 5 Stars
This set is leaps and bounds above any other "collector's edition" cd's I've seen. First of all, the D-Sides album is incredible. Aside from a few lackluster tracks, it's a complete album comparable to Demon Days. Disc 2 is one of the best remix albums next to Laika Come Home. The packaging is the real winner here. The two disc digipak cd comes in a black box inluding 4 pins, 2 sketches of Gorillaz, a patch, stickers and a booklet. If you're not convinced yet check out Hong Kong or Stop the Damns - some of the best Gorillaz tracks thusfar produced. Disc 2 highlight is Kids with Guns (Turn to Monsters) - a completely new take. Forget the basic edition and pick this up.
And be prepared for a third album. Demand it in fact!
Free Music Review: Yay! Hit: 5 Stars
This album is amazing. I love the songs, especially "Hong Kong", "Dirty Harry (Chinese New Year Version)" and "Feel Good Inc (Stanton Warriors Remix)". I was thrilled when I read about it on Wikipedia, and I think the extras are worth it (yay stickers!). There are some songs I don't like (Jamie T's Remix of "Kids With Guns" should NOT be listened to by anyone under 13, woe is me), but otherwise this album is great. It balances out soft, mellow songs with loud, rocker ones. This album is a great addition to the already awesome story of Gorillaz, and I hope that they come back with more great stuff for all the Gorillaz fans out there.
Free Music Review: Demon Nights Hit: 5 Stars
While Gorillaz previous B-Side album "G-Sides" was underwhelming at best, "D-Sides" is an authentic and sound glance at Gorillaz. Not every song on the CD's are necessarily amazing, truth be told a few are downright annoying, however the majority of the tracks are standout and some should've made it on "Demon Days". The Deluxe Edition includes stickers, album art, a patch, a few buttons and a whole hell of a lot of fan service. This isn't any ordinary b-side, its basically Demon Days 1.5
Free Music Review: More great tunes from Damon et al Hit: 5 Stars
Gotta love Damon and the Gorillaz. If you have been collecting their releases since the original DVD release of Phase One: Celebrity Takedown this is the perfect companion CD set. Gorgeous display box and more of Jamie Hewlett's excellent artwork are perfect for flipping through while you listen to the follow up to their G-Sides album. Musically this is closer to their debut than anything from Demon Days.
Free Music Review: Awesome CD! Hit: 5 Stars
I think this is the Gorillaz' second best album!! I love th "Hot Chip Remix" on the second CD, and I think it's one of the best remixes I've ever herd. I really recommend getting this CD, I'ts worth your money!
