Gorillaz in tier list I’m not sure what my expectations were, I’ve not listened to anything like this before. This meaning a virtual band, a fictional one at that.

Then the band broke up and it was just the singer, the main songwriter who kept the name and kept going. Significantly less good. Just, immediately felt more like slow, boring guy-with-a-guitar type stuff. That’s aContinue reading “149: Passengers (B-)”
