Damon Albarn was once a sort of King Midas, turning
anything he touched into gold, both in the many
musical outlets of his own, and as a guest or
featured artist. Gorillaz were no exception.
Now on their eighth studio release with Cracker
Island, the virtual four-piece û founded in 1998 by
Albarn and James Hewlett to exist as cartoons û try
a change in direction with an album made up of ten
potential floorfillers. And, whereas star-studding
has always been a hallmark of any Gorillaz record,
the impression is that AlbarnÆs gold touch has been
reversed, with only the guests managing to add some
spark to tracks that could easily be demoted to
tracklist filler without their contributions to
elevate them. It takes Thundercat and Bad Bunny to
make the title track and æTormentaÆ, respectively,
songs to come back to û the latter unimaginable
without the Puerto Rican rapper and definitely
making the closing trifecta with the following
æSkinny ApeÆ and æPossession IslandÆ (featuring
Beck, a lovely clash of accents, and a Mariachi
band) the peaks of the record.
Mind you, Cracker Island is not a bad album. It
would be dishonest to deny the quality of the
songwriting, the arrangements and the engineering.
Yet very little remains behind the pleasant,
polished sound this time. We are far from the
complexity and panache of Demon Days. But, perhaps,
a collection of bangers for blasting in the car with
the windows down is all you need sometimes.
