Gorillaz And Thundercat Share New Song, ‘Cracker Island’
Gorillaz have collaborated with Thundercat for the new song Cracker Island. The single is produced by Greg Kurstin, Gorillaz, and Remi Kabaka Jr.
“It’s nice to be back, I’m well into our new tune, it brings back weird and scary memories of stuff that hasn’t happened yet,” said 2-D, the animated outfit’s “frontman.”
Gorillaz have recently been asking fans to join something called “The Last Cult,” and cartoon bassist Murdoc Niccals is the cult’s “self-appointed Great Leader,” according to a press release.
Gorillaz are currently on tour in Europe and the band begins the North American leg of its tour in September. In 2020, Gorillaz released Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez. Since then, Damon Albarn has shared the solo album, The Nearer the Fountain, More Pure the Stream Flows. Last year, they dropped a three-track EP, Meanwhile, as well as a comprehensive box set celebrating the 20th anniversary of their self-titled debut.
