The Now Now

Gorillaz

A sun-bleached travelogue of shimmering synth-pop and yacht-soul. Stripped of guests, it finds a lonely, melodic warmth in the haze of the American West.

A breezy, sun-drenched wistfulness washes over this streamlined road-trip record, trading the chaotic, guest-heavy clutter of the past for a focused, melodic clarity. The music glides on smooth, yacht-soul basslines and liquid, cooling synthesizers that evoke the quiet loneliness of a long drive through the American West.

Moments Worth Listening For
01HumilityA bright, funk-infused guitar line and a steady, upbeat disco groove create a deceptively cheerful backdrop for the weary, drift-away vocals on 'Humility'.
