Inside Gorillaz: Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett interview

With Gorillaz, they revolutionized music: Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett tell you the story of the band, from their meeting to their latest album "Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez"

[@AirFlow12345]

I'm not quite sure how I feel about the absence/lack of mention of Cass Browne who played such a huge part in the lore, marketing ideas and stuff. They're good at what they're doing but now, the band members feel like mere puppets...

[@Chichimee]

You don’t have to feel anything

[@jasoninthehood9726]

Still feels the same to me. It’s probably because the band has been around for 20 years and is hugely successful. It’s a brand not a band at this point.

[@robertdikaplan590]

i feel the same, also I fear that someday Gorillaz turn into a familly friendly tiktok dumb dancing commercial band that survives only bc of the nostalgia

[@Misunao23]

@@robertdikaplan590 unlikely cuz that’s the very thing Damon and Jamie made Gorillaz for. They hate the plastic fake musicians made just to perform on media.

[@dione__fernnn]

@@robertdikaplan590 oh no..??? im not sure if this aged badly (as in ur wrong) or aged well. i mean, cults aent exactly family friendly are they

[@legbot124]

They’re like the two funny uncles

[@buckbumbleboomstein4375]

Can we please take a moment to appreciate the mullet

[@Oosjhteuikmm]

Am taking this comment as a moment. Thanks

[@Chichimee]

Cool blokes they should collab with the gorillaz

[@urmom-mh6fg]

heh…?

[@Cherry-fn7xy]

Yea they would prob get along great

[@Misunao23]

And then they should take over the band and leave Murdoc behind

[@petecampbell3929]

Yeah I can listen Damon talk for a bit I’d say

[@LiamC328]

He has a more pleasant speaking voice than 2D, that's for sure

[@snivyfan1476]

the thumbnail and the aspect ratio made me think this interview is from the early 10's

[@gutsypath9]

5:49 damon just wanna watch their animated netflix movie asap

[@SYFTV1]

damon doesn't give a shit about the lore, the characters or any of Jamie's work for that matter

[@2-dfachero253]

Jamie se parece a Ace

[@smithydavis1033]

Dudes they just got their connection back. Be patient alright, anyway I just want to keep this partnership. I love for them to work on other stuff besides gorillaz

[@SYFTV1]

Jamie is so underrated

The feeling of actually seeing a bullet that pierced the essence and is heading toward a more important core remains for over 20 years. ‘Because of Gorillaz’

[@juanaarreola4880]

DOES DAMON HAVE A FUCKING MULLET DOES THAT COUNT AS A MULLET AHAJSBDJHSJ

[@dafunken]

fucking hell, that mullet is something else

Damon gives me super hans vibes.

Damon is so handsome 😍😍

[@omarcalles2317]

The clothes & jewelry on both 👌

[@Michael020]

Looks a lil like Thom Yorke that Hewlett

[@yessievillanueva1766]

Is it me or does Damon whistle when he talks? Or is that the audio? I find it interesting and I feel like I can listen to him go on and on.

[@andyofogo]

I don’t like the fact that it seems like they’ve lost that connection

[@maddison3854]

ik what you mean, they seem very disconnected

[@nyannyan8402]

Damn now I see it

[@Zavidar2]

it's the editing style of this video

[@helloiamelias8911]

wdym?

[@andyofogo]

@@helloiamelias8911 like they don’t work together in the same area anymore and in my head I always had this idea that they lived together would be next to each other giving comments on the work and craft but now it’s like I make this you make that were done it’s out were the bond the we share a toothbrush type connection well maybe I also had my hopes up but yea sorry if there’s mistakes

Why not? Life is all about being an individual not looking like a clone of someone else!

Booze and too much smoking make you age fast.

Slowly drifting downhill since Demon Days

[@amywalsh2001]

Nah just changed to remain relevant and pick up the new audience. Most musicians and bands largely go for the youth market. The youth are the ones far more willing to spend money.

[@amywalsh2001]

You noticed Damon doesn't like technology but he habitually use it in the music. New generation. New target market.

[@tabithathecat]

They're constantly changing in style, that's to expected as they literally have something for everyone at this point

[@looneysprig]

I don’t know what your taste in music is but if you like modern rap, pop, rock, or any type of modern music then you’re a hypocrite

[@latenightlogic]

@@looneysprig I loathe most music released in the social media era.
