The Battle of Britpop, colourised

J & D

Today in 2011 on RecordStoreDay and reissued in 2019

why do new Gorillaz fans disregard Rise Of The Ogre so much or think it's not integral to the whole concept of what the Gorillaz are supposed to be

when like

it's one of the sole components from the Gorillaz franchise that does the best job in explaining the IRL integrity and using-cartoons-for-social-criticism notion.

It accurately explains the vision that Damon and Jamie started the project with (which was to criticize the media industry) and also explains the roles the virtual characters have in the making of the mvs, the interviews etc. (for example ROTO states that every Gorillaz music video has been more or less staged because the characters explain in detail the technological aspects the crew partook in filming them and also discuss the meaning of every song)

It also shows how much lore is integrated in the Gorillaz storyline (though it's not through the mvs)

I would say that it laid the very basis of what the band was supposed to portray. I would highly recommend new fans or lore stans to check it out.

Just a lil gramon x asheiji moment :3

EVERYONE STAY OFF THE ROADS
