Gorillaz | Kong Studios | Phase one

[@soulofexistence]

I really miss this old creepy and stylized aesthetic, themes and universe. I still love them today but they feel more like marketing mascots than anything else, there were so much mystery surrounding the characters and universe back then.

[@Poncho3000]

Wow 😲 hello I totally agree with you but I am surprised to see some one from the same date and a comment that was bit from 4 years ago!

@@saltysand9629 so was my comment

[@луймислуйми]

this is so sad but i agree with you:c

[@Poncho3000]

that is probably because warner bros owned Gorillaz but they have recently departed from warner and that might bring back the more darker edge vibe

[@xailus1663]

They should make a Vr Map for this or something

[@timothyblanco4870]

Thinking the same thing

[@tacplayzboi]

I swear on Murdocs dads grave that if I ever learn vr coding I will 100% make something like this

[@mikansan8216]

i would not want to watch this while tripping on acid.

[@Cyanide_Infused]

shit, you just gave me an idea

[@Xianemezis]

@@Cyanide_Infused did you do it?

[@Cyanide_Infused]

@@Xianemezis Tried it a while ago and it was dope. It sounds weird as shit but i like bad tripping. I've been doing tabs and watching weird videos or movies from time to time but after a while nothing hit so well as this vid. I hit 2 tabs with a friend, put the vid on speakers so the first part would sound almost realistic, turned off the lights and after that....man.....every second had something to offer to my insanity and overall confusion. The only thing that kinda ruined it for me was the scary face that appeared a few times on 4:16 mostly because i kinda knew what was in the video and didn't remember that so it came out of nowhere(it didn't fit in the whole video so i also thought i was making it up) and also because that part with the monkeys felt a bit slower and was getting me in the zone. After that i got agitated(well, even more than i already was) and the final 3 seconds scared me almost as bad because i was about to get up and close it thinking it finished and then a fucking hand popped out to grab me lmao. My friend got dizzy and was trying not to look at it midway but told me the sound was making him very uncomfortable so he kinda had the physically ill bad trip for a few hours after that and it was all ruined for him. I on the other hand had murdoc's ass and the scary face engraved in my brain for quite a bit. You could honestly try watching it on acid after seeing it a few times to know what's happening. The type of music and vid made it really cool for me, it mixes really well. It's like being on a rollercoaster against your will and 2D's encouraging you like "COME ON COME ON COME OOOON"

[@Xianemezis]

@@Cyanide_Infused wow thanks, i didnt know id you would reply, that's really interesting :o

[@Gator5902]

I WAS THJNKING THE SAME

[@latenightlogic]

For me Demon Days is the ultimate Gorillaz album but the story and the visuals of the self-titled album are where the band are really at.

[@stacyxdeadmall5580]

And this is exactly why phase one will always be my favorite

[@thegameroom2813]

1:15 real Egyptian silk.. mmm mm...

[@falcofan18]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[@aZurevagrant]

i have ptsd from that video

[@iamkayem]

THROWBACK!!!! I miss the old website!!! I spent way too much time on it in high school.

[@alientooth9125]

What was it. Also I saw Videos of it why is it so high quality at that time

[@corwin.macleod]

​@@alientooth9125 Because it was mostly vector graphics animated in Macromedia Flash software. .SWF format was the HTML5 of late 90s, all 00s, and a decent chunk of 10s and at one point was feared by the W3C as a product that can entirely replace open web with just 1 proprietary plugin. Flash was the gate to the rich media web we know today at the time when HTML/CSS combo could barely handle page layouts. Flash was the shit.

[@NorfolkStarlord]

I miss this

If it was real

[@olliever817]

whys wurzel keep showing up? Isn't this after the winniebago theft? Where's he end up??

[@olliever817]

I mean in the dvd Dr. Wurzel’s face keeps showing up, but the dvd was made towards the end of Phase 1, and the winniebago was stolen right after the album was released. This is the last we see of Wurzel (as far as i know) and its never specified what happens to him (unless i haven’t found it yet, there are lots of unarchived links around) but it would be cool to see a return of Wurzel or Stumbo in Phase 4

[@olliever817]

greed ily thats wurzels face at 3:26 and 4:47 he stole murdocs winniebago

[@olliever817]

greed ily oh man sorry haha! (It would be nice if del showed up again too)

[@wasabinoodle6189]

Are Gorillaz still living in the spirit house?

[@cornsalad4196]

No they went to plastic beach

[@wasabinoodle6189]

corn salad: Plastic Beach was abandoned (if not sunk to the bottom of the ocean) after they were attacked by pirates in phase 3. This is the original Kong Studios from phase 1& 2. I’m talking about the Spirit house from the Saturnz Barz video from Phase 4.

[@carysrose819]

Wasabi Noodle no. They’re living in a HQ in London, it’s been said several times, most recently in the postcards.

[@cacao2cream369]

Alexander Fletcher yeah It’s Kong 2.0

[@cupcakegore666]

Nope they're at a different kong studios that is way smaller and better Edit: i just realized your comment is from 9 months ago.....yeah.....i don't know what's my point anymore........
