Why is he pursuing such a head ache inducing art style?
>>81023623
Those two look adorable together.
I hope this inspires more porn.
>>81023623
hes putting the ART back in art
>>81023623
Is that Noodle?
>>81023623
>Why is he pursuing such a head ache inducing art style?
Put on your 3D glasses, man.
>>81023623
Because he hates drawing them and wants you to hate looking at them
>>81024186
Yes. Not a real big fan of how he's drawing her now.Forgive the screencap, I can't right-click and save on Instagram for some reason.
>>81024186
Yep
>>81023623
Plastic Beach had the best art style. It actually looked like something straight out of a graphic novel.
>>81024290
Thing is, Noodle used to look cute but ugly, ugly but cute.
Now she's just ugly.
>>81024290
Jesus, that looks like a simplified Jigsaw mask stitched on someones head.
>>81024346
Yeah, that's pretty much a spot-on description. She was boyish and kinda weird looking, but at the same time feminine and girly. New one pushes way too far into the former category.
>>81024290
I actually quite like her new look.
>>81024346
>>81024372
It's the small pupils, I think. OP's image looks a bit better.
>>81024464
The lipstick too.
Lipstick never looks good on 2D characters.
>>81024290
holy fucking shit micheal jackson joined the gorillaz
>>81024501
>Lipstick never looks good on 2D characters.
>>81024554
It's true though.
>>81024290
Heyyyy didn't even consider he might be on Instagram, thanks
You can't save pics the traditional way on there btw, you have to use GramFeed
>>81024290
>those tabs
Never thought I'd see Hammock, albeit indirectly, in a Gorillaz thread.
>>81024639
>you have to use Gramfeed
Well fuck that, I'm not making an account that I'll never use just to save some images.
>>81024686
New album April 1st, man. Hyped for it.

>>81024715
You don't have an Instagram?
>>81024840
Instagram is just an even shittier Facebook. Why would anyone use that?
>>81024840
Only thing I could see myself posting would be cigars, and I already have an instagram-esque app built specifically for that.
Why did she change so much?
>>81024862
How else am I supposed to give my peers the illusion of doing better than I am!?
>>81024907
Grew up.
>>81024936
>Noodle is 25 now
Damn.
>>81024862
What are you, an old man? I don't even use Instagram and I know they're nothing alike.
>>81024346
all gorillaz characters have always been ugly though
>>81024997
Tell me what's different then. Seriously I really have no idea.
I mean, to me it just feels like a mix between Facebook and Tumblr.
>>81024595
Nope. Incorrect. I don't have any pictures off hand but I'll find one.
Feel Good Inc. BEST SONG THEY'VE DONE
I WILL FIGHT YOU IN REAL LIFE IF YOU DISAGREE
>>81025184
Top songs in so particular order:
Feel Good Inc
El Manana (fuck the spelling)
Tomorrow Comes Today
Broken
Empire Ants
Clint Eastwood
>>81025184
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah
>>81025228
This list is missing Doncamatic, but is otherwise pretty solid
>>81025036
Instagrams literally only for sharing your own pictures and videos, with no easy avenue of sharing other people's content unlike Tumblr or Facebook which survive on going viral
>>81025228
>Dare not mentioned
Wew laddy
>>81025328
Every time I think of Dare, I remember the live performance where Shaun was drunk as shit.
still waiting for "p sides"
>>81025361
>tfw was there/dare
>>81025444
Holy shit, really? It's bad enough watching the video, I can't imagine what it was like being there live.
>>81025283
Collapse
>>81025483
IIRC he walked on stage with of bottle of something or other and missed half his lines so the female singer just sang in stead of him.
I remember laughing at the time because noone expected any different of Shaun, but also being a little sad because Dare is one of my favourites.
>>81025228
>no 19-2000
>>81025444
Did the magic of the moment blind you from how bad it was?
I wouldn't blame you if so... Seems like one of those "in retrospect that was shit" kinda things.
>>81025361
EES COMIN AP EES COMIN AP EES DEH
>>81025663
It's got a great beat, but I don't care for the chorus.
>>81025361
I have the live dvd of the whole album and I've never made it all the way through that song.
YFW there will never be a live performance of Clint Eastwood with Del again
>>81025749
Well in-universe, Del was excised out of Russell, and that storyline had a nice complete ending. So it doesn't bother me too much.
>>81025228
Aren't you forgetting???

>>81025228

>>81029249
Everyday Robots was pretty bad.
>>81029497
>>81023837
But isn't she their daughteru
>>81029858
Even Murdoc considers her to be a precious cinnamon roll.
>>81029332
I- I liked it. Amarillo hit me close to home when I first heard it. Heavy shit.
>>81029497
Not bad, just sad. Very very sad.Mr Tembo is GOAT to me.
I think what's so great about Albarn is his music is so diverse and he's good at whatever genre he performs.
>>81030056
He needs a strong producer, like Danger Mouse, to keep everything tight and cohesive.
>>81030115
Demon Days is still probably the best overall album. It's a shame Plastic Beach didn't surpass it, because visually PB was incredible.
>>81030241
Yeah, Demon Days coveted a wide range of genres and styles, but Danger Mouse kept it from feeling scatterbrained. Dare and November has Come are about as different as can be, but work on the same album. Plastic Beach had a stronger overall nautical theme, but certain elements felt out of place and poorly implemented; for example, the rapping on White Flag.
>>81023623
>noodles eyes are open
They're pretty.
>>81030965
They're supposed to be green.
>>81029332
I might be bias, but this was my intro to Gorillaz and it's a fun project that doesn't feel gorillaz, but holds up by itself.
>>81029497
That album had not a single memorable
Song.
>>81023623
>>81024464
>>81024409
>>81024346
Noodle woulda been better if they made her look like a cute girl from the get go, you cant deny this.
>>81024309
Agreed. Plastic Beach was fucking beautiful. Shame that they didn't finish the Rhinestone Eyes video.
>>81025899
you're a winner
>>81023623
Noodle confirmed for wanting the 2D
>>81025013
>implying 2D isn't kawaii
>>81031509
No, her being ugly-cute makes her unique. It's always so transparent when they make the girl of an all boy team the most conventionally beautiful.
>>81023623
the weirdest thing about this new phase is murdoc's eyebrows by far
>>81023623
Noodle's hair reminds me of Monkey from /a/
>>81023623
Well he's definitely achieved it, this does actually give me a bit of a headache. I like it.
>>81035309
I have to disagree.
Also Anyone get the feeling that we're watching the death of 2d's "boyish good looks"
>>81025228

Also
>no O Green World
>no Some King of Nature
>>81035535
Well 2D's nearing 40, right?
>>81035535
Well he's balding apparently.
>>81035535
guy's like 40 now isn't he? i think murdoc is supposed to turn 50 this year too.
>>81035535
I don't think anything Hewlett uploads is canon since 2D/Noodle look cute sometimes and hideous other times. I think he's just dicking around.
>>81035609

Shit man, I didn't need to be reminded how time has passed by, and less by my favorite band.

>Birthday: May 23, 1978

>>81029332
Did they ever adressed why 2d's eyes looked like that in that phase? My autism always made me notice that little detail on his whole fucked up state.
>>81025663
mah nigga
>>81035905
Nah I think they just did it because it looked good.
Does anybody notice that it looks like Noodle is admiring 2D's biceps?
I wonder how Gorillaz was formed.
Irl, not lore wise
>>81024290
Has Damon said anything about a new album?
>>81035583
So he'll be 4D
>>81036321
>he hasn't read Rise of the Ogre
It's a little outdated now, but still
>>81036321
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillaz#Formation_and_early_years_.281997.E2.80.9399.29
I'm more curious how Damon met Del and co.
Damon had been on Deltron 3030 and Dan the Automator produced it w/ Kid Koala guesting, but there was proto-Gorillaz recording going on at the same time too. So which came first and how did the collaboration even start?
>>81035223

>>81024501
Even Julie from Motor City?
>>81035535
Just a little comb over to that side and you wouldn't be able to tell. Still, it's pretty cool how they are factoring age into the characters. Does kind of make me wonder if that means they might plan ahead for a phase after the upcoming one and then let it be the concluding one. We are coming close the band's 20th anniversary, so it would be interesting to see what they have in store for that milestone.
man I forgot Gorillaz existed. Too bad they insert shitty rap into their otherwise OK songs.

>>81042765
Same, it's so chill. Easy listening right there.
>>81042765
I love it but I think it gets mixed in with the rest of Demon Days, doesn't really have any catchy/memorable moments like their other songs
>>81025283
Best song.
>>81042875
>the Villain on a Gorilla jawn

>>81042910

Can't wait for the Gorillaz new illuminati-themed album!
Recently got the CD of Plastic Beach to listen to in the car, and have been appreciating Some Kind of Nature way more, glad to see it has a few mentions in the thread.
>>81044357
I mean this honestly.
>>81024290
I have the theory that they all look like Murdoc for a reason that will be explained in the new lore
>>81044617
I do like 2D's eyes here
>>81044617
I honestly just think they're aging. Muds was both the oldest and hardest living. the years are just hitting the rest now.
Is there a mega or something of Jamie Hewllet's art?
I used to have a huge folder but that was after scouring the internet for ages putting it together and I lost that.
>>81023623
Because it's head aching endusing music
News:
On the news, A producer from chigago was spoted in damon's studio.
He goes by the name of "The Twilite Tone"
He worked with multiple artists like kanye west in the past and heres a good song from his soundcloud i enjoy
https://soundcloud.com/thetwilitetone/01-lets-do-it-again-over-over
Have a picture i fixed up from jamie's instagram
>>81044664
>I honestly just think they're aging.
I honestly just think Hewlett's style is turning to shit.
>>81044664
Murdoc did switch his nasty old organs with some healthy (by comparison at least) ones from 2D.
>looking for good fanart
>find this
Would you adopt them, /co/?
>>81044748
Jamie was always one to "experiment" with his art. In a few interviews, he expressed that he doesn't like drawing the same art style for too long and he reaches for different art styles. art is subjective. but the most recent 2D image might be the best example of the next phase's art style.
>>81044837
Pictures like this are why I take every new thing Hewlett uploads with a grain of salt. One minute 2D, Murdoc, or Noodle look great, the next they look fucking hideous.
I don't know why faggots go "omg 2D's bald now??? Murdoc has a pompadour in this phase???" when everything he does is incredibly inconsistent.
>>81044561We appear to be of a minority opinion here.
>>81037489
I was just about to post a JoJo. Good taste
>>81044829
I would put them down
>>81042044
2D is to young girls what Noodle was to young boys.
>>81045816
I imagine there's more an awkward peerage thing with Noodle. Atleast I knew there was for me. 2D stayed more or less the same, a lot of people apparently weren't even aware Noodle was a girl until the second album. The whole "girl in your class who got hot over summer" was never something I expected to happen with a cartoon character.
>>81042697
>Fire coming Out of a Monkey's Head

>>81048578
Well it's basically /tv/ and /v/ combined but for music
there's no /pol/ stuff though
but honestly the whole board is just trying to troll each other, people keep trying to force memes and post random pictures and pretend they're obscure albums
there's a lot of shitposting and hardly anyone knows a thing about music, they just decide on all the same albums that are considered "patrician"
Noodle is Best Gorillaz. Prove me wrong.
>>81048743
The amount of effort and thought that goes into the making of Gorillaz boggles my mind at times.

Reminder that all of this new artwork is just Hewitt's experimentation. None of this is confirmed to be phase 4.
Hewitt did mention trying to find a way to make Gorillaz cheaper than it has been, but keeping it looking nice.
>Literally no one in this thread likes Hillbilly Man

Can someone explain who this guy was? Some kind of demon after Murdoc?

Rock The House

>>81054632
He's never totally explained because the Plastic Beach storyline is more unfinished than The Phantom Pain. But I'm pretty sure you got the gist of it: Murdoc made a deal with the devil, and he sends the demon Sun Moon And Stars after him to make him finally pay up.
Are the character literally supposed to be monkeys?
>>81054845nah
>>81024290
Her chin juts out way too far. Kinda unsettling.
Does anyone have a picture of Murdoc's new design?
>>81023623
Because you got it from his Instagram.
>>81023623
Prett hot.

Which character has the best backstory and why it'sRussel?
>>81054632
>>81054806
I thought this guy was supposed to be Mos Def's "character"? Sun Moon and Stars is a Mos Def lyric I think, from one of his other projects, and this character was in a lot of art related to Sweepstakes.
