Cracker Island
On cracker Island it was born
To the collective of the dawn
They were planting seeds at night
To grow a made up paradise
Where the truth was auto tuned (forever cult)
But it’s sadness I consumed (forever cult)
Into my formats everyday (forever cult)
in end I had to pay (what world is this)
In the end I had to pay (I purged my soul)
In the end I had to pay (I drank to riot)
Nothing more to say (I drank to riot)
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know it’s many strategies x 2
Fantasies
What world is this? x2
On cracker island it was raised
By the collective from the grave
It only came out at night
It ate up their paradise (paradise)
Where the truth was auto tuned (forever cult)
And it’s sadness I consumed (forever cult)
Into my formats everyday (forever cult)
In the end I had to pay (what world is this)
Out there on my silverlake (I was not there)
In the end it will be great (beneath the hills)
I’m like a ship between the tides (I saw myself)
I held on I survived (there in the void)
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn’t know it’s many strategies x2
Fantasy
On cracker island It will die (forever cult)
Join the collective in the sky (forever cult)
And on a shining boat of light (forever cult)
Go up to paradise (what world is this)
Where the truth is autotuned (I purged my soul)
And it’s sadness I consume (I drank to riot)
Into my formats everyday (I drank to riot)
In the end I had to pay (forever cult)
In the end I’ll have to pay (forever cult)
In the end I’ll be ok (forever cult)
Nothing more to say x3

Hello Jesus

one thing you've got to respect is how they manage to switch up their style every time
fr
Yea they go through phases and I think this is phase 7 iirc
@@rylanmetors473 The phases have gotten kind of weird, but I don't think they've been about art style since probably D-Sides. Plastic Beach had a 3D/live action hybrid video for Stylo and a 2D/3D hybrid video for On Melancholy Hill, and Humanz did the same for Strobelight and Saturnz Barz. I think the phases were mainly for Noodle's redesigns, since she actually aged in real time for a while.
There's also the fact that they stopped calling them phases with Plastic Beach (Phase 3), and that because of this The Fall became a part of Phase 3, yet for some reason fans don't consider Humanz and The Now Now the same phase despite the fact TNN essentially plays the same role as The Fall. The clear split off into phase 5 would be the start of Song Machine, in my opinion, but since they haven't actively refered to them as phases in so long I'd say the concept has probably been abandoned.
TRUE
that's facts
noodle mouthing “asshole” at the end is *chefs kiss*

Seeing Gorillaz still going on even over 20 years later is nice, especially since it seems they've never really degraded in quality unlike many 90's - early 2000's bands.

Beautiful visuals. Thundercat’s inclusion was really fun. Adds a lot to the video. Reminds me of what I loved about the band originally while bringing the newer sounds from stuff like song machine.
Fancy seeing you here, I love to watch your vids!
Also the Gee-Tar is fun
Yeah there music is like a different genre at this point, well it was for a while actually lmao, also love you ❤️
Are you doing your review in the comment section
Braaaaaaaad
The progression of music, art style, and lore for a single band over 20+ years is just mind-boggling. Feels like they've grown up with me.
Still, the old style of animation is the most nostalgic and imo portrays the band better than the newer hi-def stuff
same
Yep mind boggling rubbish
@@garethde-witt6433 thanks for your valuable input L
I do feel like they have become more accessible. Not a bad thing by any means, but their edge during the early to mid 2000’s made them such a distinctive band in style and mood.
Now the cutesy, over the top cartoon antics have made it more approachable and maybe more entertaining, but also kinda generic.

@@thecianinator everyone here has been a fan since they were like 3 lmaoo
The art direction in this really is terrific. They made the 3D look completely different from before and way more appealing.
Stylo CG is unmatched imo
both of them are quite amazing, this one looks more cellshade-y stylized than stylo
Plastic Beach CGI was the most visually detailed and had the best textures.
Whats the actual meaning of terrific
@MATÍAS YUNGE yeah, I guess that's true. They've definitely hit a nice middle ground with this. I really wish we could see something like Melancholy Hill again, but that was ridiculously expensive to make.

Yesss this song its ever a masterpiece like the first time ! and i love the new video style so much 👍🏻⚡️💪🏻
I love the animation in this. The facial expressions and body language looks great! This could be in a movie
So much character poured into just a few seconds on screen that each character has. The end where you can see 2d, Noodle, and Russel's facial expressions as they're reacting to what Murdoc is doing is just priceless.

Tenemos tanta suerte de tener a grupo cómo Gorillaz Cracker Island me pareció un buen álbum y ver qué todavía lo estan dando es increíble mis felicitaciones a Damon Albarn.
WHOEVER MADE UP THIS SEEN WAS ON CRACK-ER ISLAND 💀 2:48
Yes I was. I am everywhere, all the camera lenses in the entirety of creation have been through God's EYE, in this case my 2-D form.
That's just old man rizz, dw
I think my fav part of this band other than the music is the fact that they can do almost anything because they are animated.
@eroi bior indeed
Go see em in concert, they're touring right now and it's SO WORTH -very passive Gorillaz fan who was last minute invited to a concert recently
That's why the 2 IRL members of the band are the one guy who does the music, and the other guy who does the art.
oh fuck. they haven't looked THIS good in ages. it looks like we're heading into a lore heavy era and i'm so fucking stoked about it. let's fucking go.
Yes! Phase 7 has been amazing so far! This is probably the best stuff we've gotten since 2010 tbh
Back to the time of empire ants and rhinestone eyes please!

Hopefully they'll finally explain why 2D's eyes haven't been black in years.
@@yukononun they were filled with blood due to trauma he suffered when Murdoc hit him in the face with a van when he was robbing the shop that 2D worked at and another time crashing a car and ejecting 2d from it when Murdoc was trying to impress some girls.

Who ever does the animating needs multiple oscars
2D is being arrested, Russel is some kind of brainwashed zombie, Noodle is being interrogated by the police, and Murdoc is a cultist orchestrating some kind of cataclysmic event near the Hollywood sign.
The absolutely bonkers Gorillaz lore is back, boys!
Russell has always been partially supernatural, especially with Del.
russel's obviously brainwashed but does anyone have theories on why 2d doesn't seem fully there? i mean, since the beginning of the video he's been flopping around like a ragdoll and had to be wheeled into the mortuary
@@blue_12911 Either he's extremely sleepy, or partially affected by whatever was happening near the Hollywood sign. Probably a mix of both, imo.
Hopefully
@@blue_12911 drugs prolly I would assume? Cause there is a doll of who I would assume Is thundercat (the guy on with the hair that keeps changing colours) that at one point comes alive on the seat next to him
New Gorillaz music videos always feel more special than other artists
FR
And the fact that after many decades, they're still popular and getting lots of views/streams
i get pretty excited for ok go videos too tbh
Few artists put as much content and lore into their videos as gorillaz have. Cannot wait for this season of gorillaz

Bro...💀
Gorillaz was the first band I ever got super into, way back when I was like 12 years old. I gravitated to them because I liked how oddball and experimental they were, and found the whole "animated fictional band" idea to be super engaging and interesting. It's been a good 13 years, but I still have so much respect and affection for this band. Never stop being kooky, Gorillaz.
Still going really strong right here too. Always high style marks. Always cool af.
This track is amazing. 🔥
Mean I’m 12 now and I think I’m leaning the direction you went
Nodding along but more like 21 years for me lmao
Same... heard Feel Good Inc. on the radio roughly that long ago, and I havent been the same since
I'm so glad i'm not alone on saying the same!!!
Greeeeeetings, enchanté, a million blessings. It is I, your grand High Beacon and divine overlord, the Most Anointed and Enlightened One
For clarity: it’s Murdoc. Wotcha.
how can i join the cult?
What's your favourite Black Sabbath album?
Hi Murdoc!
Animo murdoc
Hello Murdoc ✌🏼
Bro a movie with these visuals would be so fucking good.. Netflix fucked up saying no..
My dad started lisning to you guys when he was 13. Hes 34 now and his 13yr old daughter listens to you now. You guys are my favorite band. My dad still lisns to your songs everyday
I respect how they can successfully pull off changing genres every time
@dilik mli I really liked the more realistic designs from Stylo a little more than this but the 3D is still great here
@The Squish Murdoc was beautifully ugly imo
They are their own Genre
Tbh I don't really know what genre I would call this. It's just good music
I mean the dude went front writing the song they play at every sports game to this.
Honestly the bassline for this song is crazy hard, and crazy cool. Whoever wrote it (probably thundercat) is a genius!
You should hear thundercats other songs, they be really funky
Definitely thundercat. Do a deep dive the man has the FUNK
@@jesseomollo9405 yess! Thunder cats music is SO good/cool
I guess that was a 6 string bass?
Thundercat is so fucking good at basslines
2:22 why are Stuart’s legs so long
my man is only 99% legs
Genuinely might be one of my fav Gorillaz vids? The song itself with the strange, warping visuals and implied story creates such a mysterious, foreboding atmosphere, my favourite detail is the fact they edited Thundercat's face over the extras instead of having him replace them in costume, idk if it was a logistical thing or not but it really adds to that building surrealism.
They absolutely nailed the 3D models this time around. They translate so well from 2D to 3D
Haha i see what you did there
3D 2D lol
Looks just as good as they did for plastic beach!!
Murdok is about 50 years old, the kiss with that grandmother is not strange
Yep, 56 to be exact! So no, it definitely wouldn't be too strange to see him interested in Moon Flower (the old woman @ the end)
Thou doth protest too much..
also. he approached her gently. that´s weird.
@@glferris716 WHO? /genuinely asking who Moon Flower is
@Jera Always happy to share Gorillaz lore!
Moon Flower is a new character in the current phase, Phase 7. She's their next door neighbor in their new (temporary) home in California, as explained by 2D in his podcast, The Stuart Potcast lol
Murdoc made eye contact with her once over the fence, and immediately had the hots for her. So much so, that 90% of the reason for his forming a cult in the first place was out of a misguided attempt to get her attention. Moon Flower happens to be the leader of her own cult, the Forever Cult, so naturally, Murdoc decided the best way for her to fall madly in love with him was to create a competing cult to impress her--hence their name, the Last Cult!
Prior to the events of this music video, Moon Flower doesn't take much of interest in Murdoc at all, beyond mild annoyance at his constant spying on her and one-upmanship (much to his disappointment). It would seem she DOES take an interest in 2D however, as he's frequently invited over. This interest is very blatantly an indoctrination attempt, though, but Murdoc is incredibly bitter over it all the same. Lmfao
Interestingly, Moon Flower appears to be able to conceal her real age to those around her--or at least, in Murdoc and 2D's case, anyway. According to a TH-cam short from Murdoc, he had absolutely no idea he was kissing an older woman at all, and instead only saw her the way she initially looked when removed her hood. For what reason she's started paying attention to Murdoc, or would even want to keep up this illusion with him, is still unknown. Very weird.
Sorry for the rant, but I hope this was helpful! Currently, most of the story for Phase 7 is unfolding through the official Instagram, Discord, TH-cam shorts, and 2D's podcast. The last one is especially useful for bits of information about Moon Flower, since 2D hangs out with her so often heh
anyone else noticed " cull-ture " in the magazine title at 1:41? Whats that supposed to mean?
The forever cult (gorillaz)
1:24 is so melodic istg
Baseline theory for what the hell is going on here: Murdoc used a cult to perform a ritual to revive what I can ONLY assume to be a former flame of Murdoc's, resulting in Russel getting fried for a bit, 2-D probably got absolutely smashed out of his mind to deal with the stress of it, and this is likely the first Noodle has heard of it, since she's the only one awake, sober, and not in her usual styled outfits. Looks like she was in night clothes and was taken by complete surprise.
She's trying at damage control for a situation she had no idea was going on, and is regularly seen in the background arguing with the police and gesturing at 2-D almost as if she's saying "Look at him! Do you really think you can take a SEVERELY drunk man is saying at face value, not knowing that is EXACTLY what is going on, and in strolls Murdoc in A FULL CULT LEADER OUTFIT, WALKING UP TO THE NEWLY REVIVED CORPSE IN THE BACKGROUND!
WHO HE THEN PROCEEDS TO PLAY TONGUE HOCKEY WITH!!!
Meanwhile EVERYONE in the hospital has seen this go down, cops, nurses, doctors, 2-D, Russel, and most notably Noodle, who appears to be saying something along the lines of "you asshole", realizing they're fucked.
Yea, looking at the vid that makes sense lol
either "Asshole" or "That's gross", from what I can make of it 3:05
2-D’s ex, who Murdoc had a fling with at one point, is called Paula Cracker. Seems potentially relevant…
Noodle is also the only one cuffed.
@@ytknits4892 thats my theory

The whole concept of the video was thrilling, the animation, acting, sound and light effects, the implicit story... All blended together in a way that captivated my soul. This song was amazing before, now with the official video my love for it has grown even more!

True to their style, they knew how to create something incredible just as they did 18 years ago.
i miss 2d with black eyes
Every new Gorillaz tune at first I'm like "Hmmmm...." after a couple of listens I'm like "FOREVER CULT"
That is literally what they are about they sneak up on you and boom youll love this banger
I know right! It always takes some time for the song to grow on me and I appreciate it more the more I listen to it.

It's always super impressive how they manage to mix real life and the animation so well, especially with all the different styles over the years.
walt disney did it before anything else he did
its quite intuative really watch the behind the scenes of do ya thing video. its effectively mocap meaning theres actually a real person under/behind the animations
@@jovanyjimenez4733 Walt Disney is a corporate shit face tho
id guess its a complete 3d environment, only the human actors are real.
They are pioneers in this, also in between the first ever to perform with live holograms
This is why I always embrace Gorillaz collabing with other artist because sometimes they’ll just blend so well with characters like Thundercat who not only embrace their oddity in music but totally play into the performance and lyrics. Such a great collab I didn’t know I wanted!
I discovered Thundercat a couple years ago and immediately thought him with Gorillaz would be gold so I'm so happy it actually happened.
The bass on this album is so insane😮😮😮😮😮
I work at hot topic and this music video plays there and it goes absolutely crazy. Love it every time it comes on.
I always found the Stylo/Do Ya Thing models a bit too real for the characters they're portraying, the Humanz models in things like Strobelite were a bit too jank, but these new models finally feel like the perfect rendition of the 2d art into 3D. Excellent work all around, not even counting into the fact that the song slaps
I couldn’t agree more, perfect put
i love em too
Agreed, but I wish they'd go back to fully animated videos. They look so weird next to actual humans
It was the motion tracking for Strobelite, the same one they used for Sleeping Powder and some interviews. My guess was that they wanted to start doing a show or another album or something with the technology, but too many people didn't like the jank. I like the jank in a way but not for Gorillaz.
Noodle in background:
- Denying involvement.
- Arguing with police.
- Intentionally being difficult.
- Refusing to talk.
- Collaborating 2Ds statement.
- Demanding a phone call (probably realizing 2D didn't accomplish much in his current state).
- Listing off things on the phone call. Likely lawyer or fixer.
Actually, probably, being the only one present helping their current status.
Noodle has gone from being the team kid the others took care of to being the Team Mom that takes care of them. It's all come full circle.
First discovered Gorillaz when I was 8 years old haha, I’m 26 now. Forever my favorite band ❤
1 año ya cumplió esta obra de arte 🎉
disculpa en que disco viene esa canción ? es para una tarea proyecto regalo de cumpleaños para mi hija 😬
I swear, Gorillaz is one of the few groups out there that has songs for just about every mood. Not to mention that you're introduced to so many talented artists just from keeping up with them.
Blur as well
Couldn’t have said it better myself
Deftones too!!
Coldplay aswell
Agree. Every song is out of the box.
So good. Also, i really like where this is going with all the cult stuff. I'm so happy the band has been so busy with new music in this past few years
It’s like wtf did you do this time Murdoc…? Seriously what did he do…?
Grande Pride !!!
Hola pride te quiero mucho, por ti le echo ganas a la escuela
I ate 50 OREOS in a video 🤪🔥💀

Finally it's here
No matter where I am or what I'm doing, when this comes on, I sing and dance!
1:52 "i suck myself"
Not only the song but the animation was fantastic! While Song Machine brought back the memories of Demon Days, this one brings more the vibe of Plastic Beach. I'm loving this new era of Gorillaz!
me too bro
You're right on the mark, I think. It is definitely more narrative driven.
I love how Noodle is talking to the cops as if she's the responsible one now. So weird to see her growth.
Well basically she is considering she's 30 now
Is that Noodle? Kinda looks like Paula Cracker imo
Pretty sure shes not Noodle,
In the profile Pic of gorilaz or the banner Noodle appears with the look we would spect
@@bermelxd7820 Nop, that's Noodle
bruh why noodle has redish hair now

Anyone else notice Noodle mouth "asshole" at the end there?
Thank y’all so much for delivering on this level in terms of respecting (and raising the standard of) just how incredibly good, intentionally crafted and beautiful made music videos can be.
bruh garret watts the average gorillaz enjoyer 🤔
HEY GARRETT
didn’t expect to see u here omgee
HI GARRETT OMG
Omg Garrett Watts is at it again in the comments of good musical artists 🙏🏻😎 a man of taste I see
I think that the reason why gorillaz is up there among my favorite bands is because they switch music genres all the time, and since I love every type of music but get easily bored they fit perfectly with me. Also the lore... nothing's better than good lore
tf you on
@@eeeh9693 tf YOU on?
same
I just love when they bring in the artists that need some love. I remember Thundercat being a opener for Red Hot Chili Peppers during the I'm With You tour, so over looked
Yes the looorrrre.
2:42 OMG!! IT'S MURDOC NICCALS FROM GORILLAZ
That moment when you realized that the lyrics are just a very high 2D trying to explain what happend to the police
This is the story of the end of the Multiverses Nazi Cult.
I was 19 years old when the Gorillaz dropped Clint Eastwood in 2001. Now I'm 40, and every Gorillaz project continues to blow my mind. And bringing Thundercat on board? Niiiiiiiiiiice. 😎🦍
For a moment the math wasnt mathing for me and mow i relize why im failing math
I was about 4, and Clint Eastwood was my favorite song
Im 33 a feel you
oh yea i forgot, that was 20 years ago.
nobody cares
Love how gorillaz have maintained their horror themes throughout each phase
Yeah this genuinely really unnerving
The most unnerving thing is the kiss at the end lol
@@BrotiniYT haha at first I was like she's kinda cute but before I finished that thought she turned into a grandma and I was like... dang it they got me
@@BrotiniYT jajajajaja fue tan random
@@BrotiniYT I wonder if she’s someone important to Murdoc
00:46 someone at the window...
Yeah, I wonder who is it?
lights= flashing
noodle=good lookin
music=GROOVY
cult=forever
Almost 25 years of Gorillaz existence, they still are amazing
Edit: I changed it to 25 because you guys are saying it's 25 years
32 years of Damon, incredible
@@quillberwho the hell is Damon
@@jaredeleson1428 genius behind Gorillaz. yes is "Damon Albarn"
Agreed 💯
Not the edit bro 💀
This band has grown up with me, i love how thet switch their music style everytime, their songs are amazing, keep being great Gorillaz :)
Lit
Just coming back to this and noticed that little action figure that keeps changing poses between cuts.
I kind of prefer gorillaz back when it had the 2D art style with 3D environments
I can't wait to see more of the lore from this phase. The animation and looks are so much fun and I love the grittiness of it all while also being colorful
I feel like they reached their NFT era :/
@@user-nj6bt5gy4s
Just for how the animation looks?
@@user-nj6bt5gy4s 3D doesn't = NFT, this animation actually looks like it has heart and soul in it unlike most NFT "art"
@@ChoripanesAlVapor Yeah i don't really like it, nor the song
@@robooz 3D definitely doesnt mean NFT but just this style reminds me so much of it
The animation on this is SO FLUID AND SMOOTH. I wish more music videos were this elaborate.
YOOO NATEE
can you elaborate? or are you just fishing?
Someone needs to watch more music videos
I go around youtube collecting music videos and putting them together in a playlist I call MTV. th-cam.com/play/PL4i-zwmw5MNrC5VugA-0-rRKiCgQUUMS2.html have a view and pass it on.
Hello from Idaho Nate
Noodle seeing Murdoc get kissed and going "thats gross" is everything
2:54 Is this a reference to "The Shining"?
A - love the song.
B - Murdoc is the cult leader. Of course.
C - love that Noodles with age goes "backward" in styling of the typical anime. Grungy 00's, colorful/gritty 80-90's, and she looks pretty close to those classic 70's Lupin/Gundam designs.
My reaction to Murdoc also was "oh, right. Of course he is." lol
Is Murdoc supposed to be the villain or is it just Murdoc being Murdoc?
@@BitOfUltraviolence Yes.
@@BitOfUltraviolence In the video I think he's more like Murdoc being Murdoc, and since it's not really despicted what the cult was doing that had to be stopped - even if the woman aging quick wasn't a good sign - it's all open to interpretation, I think. Whether he's the villian that depends on one's personal opinion of Murdoc and cults, I believe. Murdoc did some very bad things along the band's history (have an affair with 2D's girlfriend, bully 2D, other general Murdoc stuff) even if he's also a generally liked character because of how entertaining/relatable he can be. And cults are cults, no matter how well-meaning they can appear to be, so it mostly depends on who you ask and your personal views.
70-80.
70s and 80s

Ainda não acredito que essa obra saiu no dia do meu aniversário
Já vai fazer 1 ano 😢😢❤❤❤
0:02 On crack again cause I was bored (crack) Oh jeez
I'm collecting all the dogs 🤪🤙
Love how Gorillaz does really unexpected collabs. Would love to see them do a collab with a metal band
I'd love to see them work with the likes of Ed Harcourt, Mark Doughty as well as ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead.
I'd like to see them Collab with Kanye
Agree
@@firulais6735 I somehow doubt Damon would be up for that, maybe a couple of years ago, but not now sadly.
I thought that was Simone Simmons in the end under the blanket, too bad it isn't her, a voice like hers or Floor Jansen would be a blast!
I respect the fuck out of this, the fact that the narrative is going on in the background as well as the foreground, like noodle asking for a phonecall its little touches like that, which show me this has passion and creative though put behind every frame of this mv
I'm still freaking out over how they've made her actually grow up. She's not itty bitty with bangs over her eyes anymore. I almost didn't recognize her.
There wasn't that much going on in the background, honestly it was one of the most boring videos they've ever done if not for Thundercat's inclusion
@@sharmgidly3497 I think it’s one of the best videos they’ve had in *years*
@@sharmgidly3497 Pffffft yeah right. Meanwhile everything from Humanz to The Now Now is the most forgettable shit ever on all fronts. Sound, visuals, story telling. All worthless. I'll take this over the shitty 3D models from crap like Strobelite or them just I dunno kind of standing there like in Tranz. Thank god Damon and co have gotten the act back together in Song Machine.
My favorite part is 2D singing the line about being a cow into the phone as the demonic face and logo flash over him. Bet they both were calling murdoc for help tho, though he definitely has ulterior motive at least hes helpin them out.
Love how noodle just chilling back there
I love that his eyes are white now as a change cuz murdoc doesn’t control 2D no more it make me smile
just so u know, when this dropped live, there were some title cards at the start that said that what we see in this music video has not happened yet and that we are able to see it beacause of a time machine or sth like that. it also said something like, that this isnt how it was supposed to go and that this story starts with at the end. so we may get more music videos in the future to explain what happened before this chaos. (sry for my bad english)
Aaaaaa graciasss, no entendí una mierda en el video porque no sé inglés, así que gracias
@@nicole.suzuki i am german so no idea what u said accept for gracias soooo... no problem i guess mate XD

I can't get over how almost hypnotic Thundercat's lyrics are
Yess
You probably mean his vocal delivery/phrasing rather than the lyrics, also he didn't solely write the lyrics for his lines either
@@Kaladin2077 You must be fun at parties...
@@dodgepuppy1715 what
@@stan-ox6no don't click on it
1:04 The good bit.
Noodle sure has come a long way from the little Japanese girl we saw in the Clint Eastwood music video. It’s funny how she’s grown but the rest of the band still look like the same age they’ve been at the start.
They've all gotten more wrinkly as they aged from their 20s to their 40s, Noodle's the only one who we watched actually grow up
3:06 Does Noodle called Murdoc an asshole?
now it seems to me too
She could also be saying that's gross, lol
Is she noodle? Bro I thought she's someone new wtf!
yes she did
Gross creo que dice
