Do you like the Gorillaz?  What about dub?  Well if you like them both, then the new Gorillaz CD “Gorillaz: Spacemonkeyz versus Gorillaz—Laika Come Home” could be your cup of tea in a big way.  I really enjoyed the Gorillaz first CD but was constantly bummed that they only fooled with dub influences and kept everything nice and MTV-pop friendly.  Well this CD is full of righteous towering dubs of their tracks.  Emphasis on dub as several of the tracks are only slightly recognizable to the originals which makes this release stand on its own really well.  It is deep and brooding but strangely summery and so far, I’m loving it (in case you haven’t noticed).  In the US, it comes out on Astralwerks this coming Tuesday. Now, for my question…does anyone have any info on the Spacemonkeyz? These guys have the deep dub technique down pat and I’d like to hear more of their stuff.
