MF DOOM, The rapper featured on November has come, died at the very end of october last year, which makes the title of the track hits different now

Why nobody do recommend the first Gorillaz's album called Gorillaz??? It's on the same level as Demon Days and Plastic Beach. In fact, it's my favourite one

[@cesarpena5022]

DEFINITELY underrated

[@thatmusicguy3029]

yeah

[@separator94]

Gorillaz is a great album. Not as good as Demon Days but second best as far as their discography is concerned. Definitely a classic.

[@frandavis1990]

@@separator94 i agree

[@gabrielp9646]

The first album is the best one in my opinion (because it´s the most rock-oriented).

[@NashaWriter85]

I will die on this hill but Demon Days was the BEST album of the 2005. Thank you for giving it the love it deserves.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Fuck, I think it’s damn near the best album a mainstream artist has put out so far this century, period. Globally aware and important lyrics, culturally rich genre mixing, phenomenal production, perfect audio engineering, their interest in showcasing underground artists....and the sheer attention to detail and complexity. All while managing to sound so radio-friendly, which is important for musicians trying to reach as much of humanity as possible with an important message. They’re just unbelievably talented artists. You can probably say that about all of their work, but Demon Dayz just has a special spot in my heart. I listened to it in middle school when it came out, so there’s a nostalgia factor there too. But it’s still so impressive on so many levels.

[@agooglyminotaur169]

@@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai Absolutely. This album is an incredible triumph. It's so eclectic and covers so much ground, and yet holds together perfectly cohesively as an artistic statement. Great guest performances, great music, phenomenal arrangements. It's beautiful, it's hard, it's joyful, it's dark... it's basically everything.

[@zesticide1010]

Definitely in the top 5 albums of the 2000's, possibly even top 3. Muscling with 10,000 Days and The Man Comes Around.

[@nickcarrillo5237]

This album is a banger. I am just bobbing my head through the first couple of tracks. Musical journey… and then the last three tracks just bring me to tears. Not out of sadness, but from the melodic connections. It’s just such a beautiful way to end an album.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

The rap section on Dirty Harry has some of the heaviest lyrics I’ve ever heard out of Gorillaz, and that’s saying something. Pretty sure the rapper’s name is Booty Brown or something like that lol. I wouldn’t have guessed someone with that name would come up with such an intense set of bars.

[@JT-kw7rm]

He's an artist from a legendary group called 'the pharcyde' I highly recommend checking them out

[@ToomStoneMedia]

Glad you have finally experienced Demon Days, thanks for sharing. It's easily my favorite album of theirs so this was a cool watch along. Nearly all my favorites come from this album but my No.1 has gotta be Every Planet We Reach Is Dead. Feel Good Inc, Dirty Harry, Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head, and Kids With Guns are close runner ups.

[@matheusporto8855]

This is the best surprise for me this week, Gorillaz is my favorite band and I'm passionate about seeing people enjoy and react to this album and Flower Boy from Tyler, and after discovering through the IGOR reaction this made my day! Please, consider reacting to Plastic Beach or their new album, Song Machine Season One: Strange Timez.

[@XOTheHosttt]

Wow, I didn't expect this reaction at all. Awesome reaction ❤️✨

[@mohamedkhedir4816]

I feel like a lot of people sleep on Demon Days. It's a beautiful concept album.

[@cheerio4000]

i have a place in my heart for the last 3 songs, especially demon days

[@littlefoxglove276]

ppl tout plastic beach as their magnum opus, but pb's production is nowhere near as tight as demon days'

[@kingman450]

@@cheerio4000 listening to Don't Get Lost In Heaven and Demon Days after is bliss. The first live version is amazing.

[@depecher6s311]

I’ve always seen Demon Days as the most popular gorillaz album but probably because it was the first one I owned as a little kid, I didn’t listen to the rest of their music until I became a teenager. I remember buying Demon Days on CD for my mum’s birthday present because I knew she would let me listen to it 😂

[@riquiffer]

Last living souls is still my favorite song... ever, that piano part is just so perfect

[@fatyoshi9993]

Absolutely adore this album, really cool to see someone else's first time listening to it. Dunno if you take requests but I'd love it if you reacted to Random Access Memories by Daft Punk or Blur's self-titled album

[@ChickenFriedDryEraseMarkers]

The Rapper in the song November Has Come is MF Doom. We sadly lost him last year. ❤

[@sovietsquishycatisback3027]

This album really is like 100x better with headphones on

[@TacoLogan08]

You can say that about pretty much all music

[@choochoopicklepie4747]

i pretty much love everything the gorillaz does, but plastic beach has a special place in my heart, its not just my favorite gorillaz album, but its my favorite album of all time. everything about plastic beach is incredible. the production, the lyrics, the whole story for the virtual members, the concept and the awareness to climate change. it's just such an amazing cohesive project from beginning to end.

[@thagerussculshaw3839]

I love this reaction you 're very into the music!

[@phillyfanmatt]

This album was such an awakening for me. I was born and raised with country music listening parents and when this came out I was in (I’m pretty sure) 6th or 7th grade. One of the first CDs I ever bought with my own money just because I thought the character designs looked cool. What a world I unknowingly stepped into. This album will always be one of my top 5 of all time if for no other reason, the nostalgia…let alone how good it actually is.

[@curtismccrossan]

Loved this video dude!! I’d love to see you do plastic beach that’s a masterpiece IMO!

[@Splerpsy]

I know you get tons of comments, telling you to listen this and that, but I do hope you go on and listen to plastic beach on your channel, cause that album personally is one of my all time tops! Love your content, keep it up!

[@sassytabasco]

Can I just say, this has been one of my favorite albums since I was in highschool, and it blows my mind to watch someone hear Dirty Harry and Dare for the first time. So wholesome.

that's gotta be the most slept on track of the album. The opening is definitely bizarre, but I'm a Jack Stauber fan so it's nothing to crazy. What a great track

[@riquiffer]

Cool reaction😊 I would recommend a reaction to the Blur album 13, it's also a great and very unique journey. Blur is Damon Albarn's (the real mastermind behind this songs) other band, you may also know Blur as "the WOO-HOO guys"

[@thespanishinquisition8628]

This 1 million percent

I am so glad you listened to Demon Days, because I overplayed this wenn I was literally 5 years old, I would love if you react to their self titled debut album and also Plastic Beach 😊

[@brianhernandez3584]

I love all the albums of Gorillaz but this is definitely my favorite, and my favorite song is el mañana

[@clancycarr1498]

Great review! Keen to hear thoughts on Plastic Beach next ✌

[@elliottgb6161]

Demon Days is an excellent opener to Damon and the other members. Plastic beach is a more flushed out album with stronger concepts. It's also beautifully constructed. You'd enjoy it.

[@MrShaiya96]

[@denisethorton7790]

Their selftitled debut album isn't the most consistent out of their discography but I think it has some of the most interesting tracks that I cannot for the life of me nail down to a genre. It is their first album though so it has some sharp turns that don't necessarily transition the smoothest. Still, it's an album that is overlooked by most because of the popularity of Demon Days and Plastic Beach which is unfortunate because it has some of Gorillaz' best work.

[@robertsmithfan877]

yes!!! i love the self titled album

[@carlosandrescastromedina3100]

Their last album is really good and one of the best from last year, everybody should give it a listen

[@bulletfastspeed]

Ok it's time, you gotta listen to the album Madvillainy. One of he best rap albums of all time easily, probably my second favorite (1st is To Pimp a Butterfly). MF DOOM and Madlib..... Sheesh.

Demon Days are really good, but I like Plastic Beach more. I hope that you will look into that album too. If you liked Demon Days, you will also like Plastic Beach (Maybe even more then DD). :)

Demon Days is far better. It also sold 11 million albums where Plastic Beach only sold 2 million. Plastic Beach is overproduced, bloated and shallow which is why it sold so poorly. People saw through its fog of overproduced drek.

(MY OPINION) I really liked demon days as a album, the hip pop, electronic, alternative rock and rock were amazing, and of course all the glory from feel good inc. but I have to say I very slightly love plastic beach better. I think it was well made like empire ants, on melancholy hill, and other songs. I liked every song on the album, and it was just a banger, and also a relaxing album. Even though it didn’t have that alternative rock and rock into it, and more electronic sounds, I still love it as much as demon days, only slightly better.
