Gorillaz

Gorillaz is one of the greatest bands to ever grace this earth.

To begin with, Gorillaz is the greatest band of this millennia because of the amount of variety of the music they have made along with the quality of these songs. Their music can range from slow and chill to fast-moving and thrilling. The content of the lyrics can range from a man talking about his depression to the issues of the music scene due to generic, manufactured pop songs. There’s always something that caters to your personal interests or that can introduce you to something new and exciting that…

by Michael Jackson, “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac, and “Can’t Feel My Face” by The Weeknd. If you’re looking for an R&B electronica vibe, this is the song you’ll enjoy the most. This song demonstrates the pop-influence that Umphrey’s McGee has in some of their more melodic tunes. Although they are known for their instrumental expertise, some often forget how glorious the group’s vocal harmonies often sound, and as we go from Fleetwood Mac to The Weeknd, you can hear this perfectly. Coming up fourth…

“Up on Melancholy Hill” by the band Gorillaz is a song from their album “Plastic Beach”, which uses the extended metaphor of a beach formed by trash and plastic that has been collecting on the sea. This song takes place on the island, with two lovers looking out towards the titular Melancholy Hill, with the singer speaking to her.

but also sings over the music in a major key, keeping spirits lifted and happy throughout his songs. On the other end of the spectrum, Erick Arc’s work is described as a “deep dive into psychotropia- the highs and lows- with paranoia and invincibility trading places with suicidal thoughts” (Iandoli, Kathy).
