Damn, hell yeah, been waiting for this.

Tbh I was very lukewarm about Hallelujah Money and it seems like it's on the album with the "leaked" track listing
Hopefully I'll enjoy it more with the context of the other songs, could have just been a terrible song to release as a single

Hallelujah Money was terrible let's be honest, Andromeda was great

i'm hearing autotune on Saturnz Barz. not a fan tbh

Ranking of the stuff that's been released so far:

1. Andromeda
2. Saturn Barz
3. Hallelujah Money
4. We Got the Power
5. Ascension

Even Ascension is still pretty good, it just doesn't feel like a Gorillaz song.

nice

fuck yeah this is an amazing birthday gift :D

I liked Andromeda and Saturnz Barz the most, hyped for the album now.

If the album anywhere on par with Plastic Beach i'll love this.

Andromeda is so so fucking dope.

gorillaz to pound

The standard edition was leaked a few days ago here (no promises against viruses)

The album is a lot more chaotic sounding and hard hitting than Plastic Beach and overall really good. Defintely give 3 or 4 listens to every song even if you don't like them at first, and especially if you're used to the older Gorillaz stuff. Of the songs that aren't already released, Strobelite, Momentz and Submission are my personal favourites. Also Hallelujah Money is a lot more modest/fitting (IMO) when placed in the album.

Another solid, well themed and really unique sounding Gorillaz album I reckon.

Aight so I was a good boy and waited for my deluxe copy to arrive before listening even though it leaked

Damn solid album, very different from the others but that's the point with Gorillaz, I'm happy :) Strobelite, The Apprentice and Andromeda are my favorites so far. It's indeed chaotic but I love it

Gave it a full top to bottom listen, it definitely has a different feel than their previous albums but in a way it still has that Gorillaz style. It has a darker feel than Plastic Beach, makes sense considering the feeling behind the creation of these tracks. There's a couple tracks I can't really get into but I found myself liking more than I thought I would. Some of them like Ascension and Hallelujah Money I didn't really like standalone when they were first released but when implemented in the full album work so much better. The beats and effects make it sound really dreamy, good for relaxing with a drink or a smoke.

Favorite tracks so far are probably Andromeda, Submission, Busted and Blue, and Sex Murder Party, and The Apprentice.
