As soon as Gorillaz put out “Clint Eastwood,” I bought their self-titled CD. And I totally played it out until some jerk-off stole it. So, when I heard on the radio that their new song was about to play, I cranked up the volume to properly evaluate it—”Feel Good Inc.” was the song they were speaking of. I liked the funky beats and variety of singing styles I’ve come to expect from the Gorillaz, and decided the CD was worth examining. I have a soft spot for songs that can be somewhat hardcore and add in pretty sounds, like violins and cellos, and that is just what they do with a variety of songs. I also thoroughly enjoy the British accent you catch sometimes, as well as the free-style-like rhymes. Good stuff. Definitely worth the 15-20 bones it’ll cost you. —Virgin Records 2005 [HEIDI KING]
