New Gorillaz Album Being Recorded Soon
Update (7/16): More than a year after Damon Albarn initially hinted about a new Gorillaz album, we finally have a definitive timeframe for the cartoon pop band to get into the studio.
The Blur frontman appeared on Australian TV show ABC 7.30 and explained:
"I'm starting recording in September for a new Gorillaz record. I've just been really, really busy so I haven't had a chance. I'd love to just get back in to that routine of being at home and coming to the studio five days a week."
Albarn told Fuse he's written "quite a lot of songs on the road" for Gorillaz when we caught up with him at Bonnaroo 2014.
Whenever the new LP drops, it'll be the "Whirlwind" outfit's first since 2011's The Fall. We just hope that the Gorillaz members have enjoyed the time off and will be refreshed to put out music and tour very soon. (Just kidding, we know they're cartoons. Of course they're ready.)
