arab_freak Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 http://www.mansized.co.uk/news/story.phtml/125 http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1528295/20060410/story.jhtml Sad to hear, but there still is a chance to see them return. I don't get why they killed Noodle off, though. Seemed pretty pointless killing off a "popular" member of the band. Shutting down Gorillaz is a pretty bad move, Albarn is better of with the Gorillaz than with Blur (IMO). Kind of like the relationship Justin Timberlake has with N'sync. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramar Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I read one of the links and it said live show... cartoons do live shows? Or do they mean the people behind the cartoons will actually perform live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKOB Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 they will be back! after their first album i thought wed never here from them again. . . then they came back with an absolutly HUAGE album just to prove me wrong. theres nothing definitvie in the article other than they want a break for a few years to 'do other things'. they will be back-or else i will have to look else where for great music videos and funky songs hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mario114 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I didn't see that one comming, and so soon after their latest album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonmike04 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I didnt see this coming either mario, i absolutely loved the first album, wasnt such a big fan of the second because i've never gotten it (the singles put me off, I only liked one of the singles). Gunna miss em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Not really a big fan to be honest. Although Dare has been remixed to refer to me when I walk into a room. But they won't be missed greatly by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendork Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 They were at their peak, better to go out on a bang than whisper off like the wind. I think some artists are just better off stopping when they're at their peak.. I love Gorillaz but Damon will always work on great projects, it's not like he's retiring or anything. He probably has a ton of contacts and plans. I thought Think Tank was amazing.. Coxon's album was pretty piss poor from what I heard, Guardian reviewed it quite highly though.

Stocka Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Shame. i'm sure they'll be back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Even though I wasn't really a huge fan of their music (although I did like Clint Eastwood, 19/2000 and Feel Good, Inc), I always thought the concept of the band was really good, and I loved watching their videos (shame Noodle got killed off in their last vid), and I'll miss them.

CoolFunkMan Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Gorillaz were a brilliant band and a brilliant concept. This was so sudden, I never saw it coming. They will always reamain brilliant imo! It is sad to see them go, but going out in style is prolly best. Though this does kind of explain the ending of the "El Mañana" video...

Platty Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I think they will be back but i have read that Damon is interested in working on a new Blur record this year, without graham coxon of course but yeah lets hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letty Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 She's supposed to be 11 years old, you know. wasnt that on their first album? I thought she should be 14-15 now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Dare Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 It's a shame as deamon days was an amazing lp. lets hope that blur reform out ofo this and remind everyone how good they are, and how shit Oasis always were in comparison =0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
