it giving early korn, and I'm here for it!

This playlist includes 4 studio albums by the Gorillaz (Gorillaz, G-Sides, Demon Days, and Plastic Beach) and it meets all of your Gorillaz needs 

Gorillaz

This album is a contemporary rock opera set against the gritty backdrop of a gentrifying city, reimagining 'The Hero's Journey' through the lens of forbidden love amidst urban warfare. 

Steel Heart, Silk Skin

Re-Hash is the 1st track on the Gorillaz' 2001 album Gorillaz. It is described in the Rise of the Ogre as 'a gloriously upbeat opener to the album'.

The song was written by 2D and Murdoc. Murdoc wrote random phrases on magnets and 2D threw them at a frigde. They kept whatever phrases stuck in the refrigerator. 2D was coached by Damon Albarn to sing more confidently in this track and, as stated by Russel, 'lose the thin reedy sound of the early rehearsals'. Backing vocals were provided by Noodle as well as Cibo Matto's Miho Hatori. For the bass sound, Murdoc placed his amp underwater, in a fish tank on the floor above. Then they held a microphone up to the ceiling below and recorded the bassline. As he stated, that's why the bass in Re-Hash is 'all muffled and well dubby'. 2D added a broken sitar sound to the track to give it that 'extra dash of weirdness'.

Re-Hash

5/4 is the second track in the Gorillaz' 2001 album Gorillaz. The title is a reference to the time signature of the song. 

It was originally intended to be a single with a corresponding video, but was replaced with 19-2000. However a storyboard version is available for viewing on YouTube. 

The beginning of 2002 saw Gorillaz cultural stock in the UK still on a high with award nominations and notably the appearance at the UK BRIT awards, opening the show. To remind the public that the album was still out there, a single was required. Tomorrow Comes Today, although released previously as the lead track on an EP was chosen as there was a video readily available, and also because the original release had not made much impact so it would be new to most people. The biggest treats for the fans on the package were probably the revised Gorillaz biographies and a new original B-side, 'Film Music' a mischevious title which tied in with the Gorillaz movie Damon and Jamie were talking up to any interviewer who'd listen (and, Gorillaz having conquered the world by this point, these were not few in number). As this is the only original B-Side not compiled on any version of G-Sides, the inclusion of 'Film Music' also makes this release more desirable for collectors.

Tomorrow Comes Today

New Genious (Brother) is the 4th track on the Gorillaz' 2001 album Gorillaz.

New Genious (Brother)

Clint Eastwood was Gorillaz' first proper single. A huge smash initially in the UK, where it remained in the charts for months and the top 10 for weeks. At around the same time radio in Europe also went mad for the song. Slightly later in 2001 the song would also become a massive radio hit in the US and central and South America. Bigger than his previous smash, Song 2 (with Blur), this song remains Damon Albarn's biggest hit. In the UK the Ed Case Refix (available on all formats) actually got far more airplay than the A-side, probably resulting in the inclusion of said remix on the debut LP. B-side Dracula was probably the best of the off cuts from the 'Gorillaz' sessions, and tour rap group Phi Life Cypher also contributed a version.
