Product Details
Plastic Beach arrived at a moment when Damon Albarn was interrogating consumer culture and environmental collapse through the lens of a cartoon band, and somehow made it feel urgent rather than gimmicky. The guest list reads like a fever dream of generations and genres, connecting punk veterans like Mick Jones and Paul Simonon to hip-hop royalty to soul legend Bobby Womack, all anchored by Albarn's gift for melody that never quite lets you feel comfortable.
Plastic Beach is the third studio album by British virtual band Gorillaz, released 3 March 2010 on Parlophone and Virgin Records. Conceived from an unfinished Gorillaz project called Carousel, the album was recorded from June 2008 to November 2009 and produced primarily by group co-creator Damon Albarn. It features guest appearances by several artists, including Snoop Dogg, Gruff Rhys, de la Soul, Bobby Womack, Mos Def, Lou Reed, Mick Jones, Mark E. Smith, Paul Simonon, Bashy, Kano, Little Dragon and the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. The album debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart, selling 74,000 copies in it's first week. In the United States, it debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 112,000 copies, and it also charted within the top ten in several other countries. Plastic Beach received generally positive reviews from most music critics.
