“Gorillaz really need to slow it down with the politics! They need to go back to their normal dance music like they used to do, none of this new political business! They’re going to lose viewers if they keep shoving their beliefs in our faces like this!“

I was going to keep in the tags but nah

Dirty harry was about the Iraq war. November has come was calling out George W. Bush’s shitty presidency. Rhinestone eyes was a piece on how corporate pollution is affecting our oceans. Ascension was about racism and police violence. Hallelujah money!!! Submission!!! Let me out!!! None of this is new for them

You don’t have to enjoy music about politics, but don’t listen to music about politics and then complain that it’s about politics! There’s so much music out there; listen to something else if it’s that bothersome to you that’s some musicians think racism, war and capitalism just isn’t cool

Gorillaz was a commentary against capitalism from its inception. Damon and Jamie hated how the charts were full of music that they felt wasn’t authentic, was created with the goal of what will make the most money.

And their response to manufactured pop music was to literally manufacture a band. A band where all the players are literally two dimensional created fictions.

Gorillaz was social commentary from the start. Watch the video for Rock It.

Where’ve you been, man?

Even fucking Feel Good, Gorillaz’s most iconic song, was about the evils of media corporations that sneakily inject pro fascist propaganda into music.
