    I was really scared after humanz that Gorrilaz had lost the magic. It had a few ok songs but they didnt feel like gorrilaz. The Now Now was slightly better. Had more good songs than bad. Again it felt like gorrilaz didn't have a direction. I get that's the point with gorrilaz, that they make what they want, but it felt like the inspiration wasnt there. This, however, is awesome. Each song is different with amazing guest stars. It really does feel like demon days with a modern twist.

    Now that Melon explained the Schoolboy Q's tones and stuff, i'm analyzing that his parts are like the ghosts on pacman, maybe? First, like a chase, and when the ghosts are transformed (with one of those big dots), more blue and doomed.
    Or maybe i'm overthinking, as usual.

    This is the best song to come out of song machine so far imo. It's so classic demon days/plastic beach... Peak Gorillaz sound. That funkiness and feeling like it's not quite music from our own reality, but that of these characters rather? That's what makes Gorillaz a cut above the rest for me when they're at their best, and I truly believe this is their best.

    The only problem with this Song Machine project is that it's not structured like an album. It's basically a series of REALLY GOOD but completely disconnected songs, if they release it in vinyl form it would be basically a playlist, so I don't see Anthony giving it a very high score if that is the case.
    Maybe if every single song is really good I could see him giving it a 9, but that's about it.

    It honestly amazes me how quickly Damon's turned his music around- the last two albums were so utterly generic and almost completely dominated by the features, but these Song Machine tracks completely blew away what I expected by being almost entirely about the features yet having a more independent identity than anything since Plastic Beach.

I didn't know what what to think of ScHoolboy Q's flow to start but as the track went on it really grew on me and he's another artist I'll be looking more I to thanks to our boy Melon.
