I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo intrigued... I :heart: Damon Albarn!

me too:nice:

interesting news

are you his fan too? that is his 3rd band i know,Blur and Gorillaz are great,i cant decide if i will like it,but Damon is there,so it will be ok though

i like Blur, but Gorillaz was a disappointment

the Gorillaz were shit.

 

But Damon is a good musician....im really excited about the new band, especially because the guitarrist is an ex verve member (Simon Tong).

He wasnt as good as McCabe (lead guitar the verve) but he did a good job.

Should be interesting, especially with a former Verve member...

Damon Albarn: 'our album's a natural successor to Parklife'

 

 

Star reveals story behind 'The Good, The Bad And The Queen'

 

Damon Albarn has declared The Good, The Bad And The Queen's debut album "the natural successor to Blur's 'Parklife'".

 

Former Clash bassist Paul Simonon, who plays in the new band, also liken the new group's record to the work of his former band.

 

"If The Clash was the sound of the Westway, this music is strongly rooted in the same area. It's a very London record," he explained.

 

The album's London-centric theme may not have occurred without the influence of American Dangermouse, who produced the record.

 

Albarn explained: "When Brian (Dangermouse) came into the picture, everything changed. He said 'come on, let's make a really great English record'. I'd been holding back on writing an album like that ever since 'Parklife'...but I feel with people like Paul and Tony [Allen] and Simon around I can do it."

 

The Good, The Bad And The Queen's self-titled album will be released in January 2007, with single 'Herculean' out on October 30.

Herculean', the first single from the album The Good, The Bad and The Queen will be released on October 30, 2006 on CD and 7" and deleted the same day.

 

The artwork for this limited edition single, depicting a West London industrial scene, is by the album's bass player Paul Simonon.

 

here's the first single:

Herculean

 

 

Standing on the dock and now

By the gasworks

Celebrate the ghost gone by

When the love hurts

 

And the medicine man here 24/7

You can get it fast in Armaggeddon

Everyone on the way to heaven

So long

 

Call for prayer is come around here

In the morning

Wash our faces go to work

There is no warning

 

That it all gets better when life is straight

It's bigger than you the Welfare State

The wind keeps singing it's not too late

For you

wauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

tha song is brutaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

I liked it :wacko:

 

Though I must confess that I like some Gorillaz's stuff too :anxious:

i totally love Damon!

and i like every Gorillaz songs and almost all Blur stuff

Well I personally think that Blur's much much better than Gorillaz... I like just one-two Gorillaz's songs and like one-two Blur albums. I've been into Blur when I was about 11 lol.

i totally loved them when i was 7
