Oh man, I love Gorillaz. Their music definitely takes me places no other band does. I mean, I can listen to stoner music all day and think of it as just that but, Gorillaz is more than that, imho. The first album is kinda whacky and pre-mature and has a few high points scattered throughout. Demon Days is a diamond in the rough, though. After around the 10th listen and all the trippy stuff seems to be on a "normality" par with the singles, everything blends together and the album as a whole is flawless and beyond for what it is.
Buuuuuutttt.....
When I bought Plastic Beach a few weeks and listened to it for the first time... I don't smoke and neither does my mom but I could have sworn I smelled pot around the 3rd song and throughout.
