Seeing as my favorite Gorillaz song is On Melancholy Hill, it's only fitting that the album that exploits that type of electronic ballad sound is my favorite. I would'ved Lake Zurich, which to me doesn't fit in the "story" that the album wants to tell in that, the record starts with an upbeat, kinda reassuring tune, then follows with a dance song, which we hadn't really seen since DARE. (Tranz and DARE, I feel are really similar). Then Hollywood arrives and suddenly it's still upbeat and kinda dance, and then stop. Kansas, Sorcererz, Idaho, Magic City, Fire Flies, One Percent, Souk Eye, all much slower, which kinda does a decrescendo-crescendo, in that the album starts very energetic, then calms down, which songs that start slow and then slowly explode in terms of instrumentation and vocals near the end. Some people say it's a 2-D solo album, and I'd say they're right. But that's not a bad thing, It's a much more vocal-focused album and that's the thing in prefer in Gorillaz.

A very strong follow up to last years release, Humanz. This album features 2Ds vocals much more than Humanz, which is what a lot of fans were looking forward to. Go get The Now Now, now ;) Highlights: Humility // Tranz // Lake Zurich // Magic City // Souk Eye

Summery pop to satiate a quick fix, until you realize there's no substance, and you've essentially been playing the same track on repeat for 40 minutes, leaving you in a state of lethargy. For all of its failings, at least Humanz brought some variety, and some absolute bangers to boot. On The Now Now, there isn't a single essential Gorillaz track in sight, just a sea of homogeneity.

The Now Now is a focused, very satisfying summer pop record, which after Humanz is all it needed to be. The songwriting is a bit tepid and one-note at times, but the strengths of Albarn's songwriting and a laid back atmosphere makes it a success.

If we took the best songs off of here and the best ones off of Humanz, we'd have a great album.

I listened to this in my office where people are generally pretty stingy about the music and nobody complained, so I guess that counts for something. Perfectly harmless pop album that's great for summer days.

This is pretty much what I wanted Humanz to be, so it's a good thing. Cool little album.
