Plastic Beach

Product Information

Excelente reedición, suena a la par de un rip de la edición europea, la verdad a mitad de precio este es de esos discos que valen la pena por mucho. As it turned out, Humperdinck's manager had listened to the proposed selection and declined the offer for him without his knowing. Listening to this pressing gives this album a whole new life and is just a great experience overall, I couldn't be more happy.

I've read many reviews on the terrible quality control on Demon Days re-pressings, so my expectations were low. Plastic Beach received generally positive reviews from critics; it holds an aggregate score of 77 out of 100 at Metacritic. The album was ranked tenth best by both Hot Press and Slant Magazine, ninth by Rockdelux, seventh by Q, sixth by Filter, fifth by State, fourth by Consequence of Sound, and third by both Beats Per Minute and The Age. Hewlett also expressed annoyance at having to draw the band members again: "I'm so f---ing[ sic] bored of drawing those characters. saw it as a demonstration of the band's "picturesque mishmash of rhymes, pop, disco, orchestration, blues and dark electronic beats.Comprised of various labels we know and love at Rough Trade (Bella Union, ATO, Speedy Wunderground, Phantasy, Heavenly, Mute and more) PIAS [Recordings] filter through some of the most diverse artistry to our racks, which we greatly enjoy digging into. Albarn said in an interview, "I'm making this one the most pop record I've ever made in many ways, but with all my experience to try and at least present something that has got depth. Similar to the previous album, short animated "idents" have been released for fictional band members Murdoc, 2-D, Russel, and the Noodle cyborg. This plastic beach is the furthest point from any landmass on earth; the most deserted spot on the planet. There are multiple stand out tracks that are audiophile quality in detail, some seem muddier (but still strong) and that is how they were recorded perhaps?

Noodle then grabs her briefcase and opens it, revealing a gun, and passes the crew member while heading out, presumably to face the pirates. On 17 September 2008, Albarn and Jamie Hewlett announced that they would be doing another Gorillaz album in an interview with CBC News. Originally, " Rhinestone Eyes" and "To Binge" were both slated to release as the 4th and 5th singles respectively.Subtle but important layers are obscured, cues I'm waiting for lost in the sauce, it lacks the clarity of the CD. Kano said "We weren't feeling great, the music was out of our comfort zone, it could have been a complete disaster". Also absolutely no pops, warping, distortion, or complaints whatsoever with the vinyl, which is a really attractive bright red. As with previous Gorillaz albums, Plastic Beach features collaborations with several artists; it features Snoop Dogg, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Kano, Bashy, Bobby Womack, Mos Def, Gruff Rhys, De La Soul, Little Dragon, Mark E. Music [ edit ] Yukimi Nagano of Little Dragon features on the track "Empire Ants", with instrumental support from the whole group.

It's most noticeable on Empire Ants: the drop halfway through sounds almost like a home cassette recording, all booming bass and no detail, and the hihat is barely audible instead of driving the track like it should. Michael Kabran of PopMatters wrote that "the band's trademark brand of electro- funk- hip-pop is more focused, with tighter production and more sure-fire hooks. Damon Albarn got the idea for Plastic Beach while on a beach next to his house: "I was just looking for all the plastic within the sand", he said.The album also debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 112,000 copies, of which 62,000 were digital copies. The labels on sides B and D have a smaller gap at the top between the outer white text compared to other releases. All four members of The Who appeared on-screen in Tommy, with Roger Daltrey starring in the title role.
