Demon Days is the second studio album by British virtual band Gorillaz. It was first released on 11 May 2005 in Japan and on 23 May 2005 in the United Kingdom by Parlophone and in the United States by Virgin Records. Produced by the band, Danger Mouse, Jason Cox, and James Dring, the album features contributions from De La Soul, Neneh Cherry, Martina Topley-Bird, Roots Manuva, MF Doom, Ike Turner, Bootie Brown of the Pharcyde, Shaun Ryder, and Dennis Hopper. As with the band's eponymous 2001 debut, the release of Demon Days and its respective live performances were both accompanied by various multimedia, including interactive features on the Gorillaz website, a total of four animated music videos, and animatics for select videos. Almost all visuals associated with the album were designed by Gorillaz co-creator Jamie Hewlett, under his design company Zombie Flesh Eaters.

That's Shaun Ryder the lead singer of Happy Monday's - a pretty iconic British 80/90's Dance band. There's a video of Gorillaz doing this song live and he is on stage absolutely smashed and out of time. It pretty much sums him up.

@m1x0 Год назад

With respect to the thematic of the album, I think Damon said that it's supposed to represent a full night from dusk til dawn. Being the penultimate track, the more dark and hopeless and the final track more hopeful, symbolising the rise of the sun, you can see this in the chorus that sings "Turn yourself around into the sun" in the final track.

Glad to see the appreciation for El Mañana. That's my favorite track on Demon Days too, really rides the line of melancholy-yet-upbeat in a way that's pretty unique to Gorillaz. Not to mention the bass tone is filthy, I love how it contrasts with the shimmery ambient synths. My favorite Gorillaz track is Empire Ants, which I think occupies a similar space on Plastic Beach as El Mañana does on Demon Days. Moody synth wash, downtempo grooves, insane bass hook, just-enough pop sensibility, etc. My guess is your dad will fucking love Plastic Beach.

So it doesn't make sense to me when people complain about Humanz having so little 2D when that was the whole point of the album, according to Damon Albarn himself.

When you said Plastic Beach was your favorite and Demon Days second, it’s the same for me. These two albums felt so cohesive and it felt like you were going on a journey when you listened to the them all the way through.

@carsonwentz8301 11 месяцев назад

Both are absolutely brilliant. I like Demon Days the best but no complaints to anyone who disagrees

@fallensound351 Год назад

When I was 7 my parents kind of limited my music output, to various things. I usually, would just have to listen to things that my parents were listening to. This was a problem for me when I was young, but as I got older my taste in music matured through the the punk, R&B, jazz, rock and others. The first album that I ever bought on a cd, was Demon Days by the Gorillaz. I lived on this album and now I get emotional every time I hear this albums. I was 20 when I saw them live. I’m 23 there now. Live goes fast when you live through sound and being audiophile

Fire Coming Out of the Monkeys Head is my personal favorite track on the album, it’s not a banger that I would listen in my car or at a function I.e. Kids with Guns, Dirty Harry, and every planet but it’s definitely the deepest song on the album is the main reason this album is goated for me

cherry on the top so to say. Mostly because it brings the whole story of the album together.

Demon Days is still my favorite from them, which says a lot. It's the most complete album they've made.

@JimijaymesProductions Год назад

The important thing about 'El Mañana' is that it is used within the story of the band as a central storytelling device in the video clip basically being the story of Noodle being attacked and on the next album 'On Melancholy Hill' served as a sequel of sorts.. I would argue that it is a big song and was a single I believe just is more of a major fan song than a mainstream hit same with On Melancholy Hill. Also I'd consider the last three songs a trilogy of sorts.

this was one of my favourite so far, this album is so much fun. Would be cool to see Plastic Beach too. I've also thought for a while that cage the elephant could be really fun, maybe starting with "tell me i'm pretty" since I think it has a lot of elements that sound quite radiohead inspired, "how are you true" sounds very inspired. Visiting the 2008 self titled Cage the Elephant afterwards would be amazing. You guys have been such a great vehicle to enjoy nostalgic albums and hear really knowledgable perspectives on songs I thought I'd explored fully.

For anyone wanting to catch Gorillaz live I would suggest aiming for a album release tour over a festival performance. I saw these guys Live in 2017 for the Humanz album. it was without a doubt the best live music experience I have ever had tops my favourite bands for sure. Damon likes to try and make sure there is as much live as possible so on this tour in 2017, I caught one of his coach drivers relaxing in a near by bar on his night off and got talking to him. he had a 14 coach convoy for all the acts dropped my jaw in disbelief then I went it to see them perform and the guys was right..... From their early music Clint east wood through demon days plastic beach humanz (the touring album), he had brought with him every single FEATURED artist that he had worked with even flying the guy out that just does the laugh to feel good inc, ticket was like £80 or something people thought it was Expensive IMO with every feature every back up singer live violin player to have the build up in how he does his music with live singers £80 is pretty cheap, especially as his set was about 2 and a bit hours long.
