This review is from: Gorillaz: Demon Days Live (DVD)

I rented this because I like Gorillaz, but I wasn't expecting much.

I'd heard the musicians performed behind and/or beneath a screen onto which the animated band is seen playing which ... didn't sound particularly interesting to me.

What this actually is is a multimedia performance, with movies and images projected onscreen in front of an audience while Albarn and other musicians -- a string section, a children's choir, various vocalists -- crank out the songs from the album "Demon Days" with what seems to be extreme enthusiasm.

Another reviewer complained about the post-production and I can understand where he's coming from -- the performance is edited and chopped up with split-screens, montages, stutters, stop-motion illustration -- but, for me, it worked.

In terms of energy and creativity, I would call this a sharp, distant younger cousin to "Stop Making Sense." I'm not saying it's as good as "Stop Making Sense," but it's in a similar vein and it's a concert film that made me wish I'd been there to see it live. Since I wasn't, though, I can (and do) have tendency to put this on and crank it up to about 8 on my sound system.

4.0 out of 5 stars Demonic Possession A Must, April 4, 2006

By

This review is from: Gorillaz: Demon Days Live (DVD)

A pop masterpiece that crosses genres and demographics, second Gorillaz album Demon Days remains a chart favourite almost a year on from its release. At the only Gorillaz live shows to date, Manchester fans were treated to a spellbinding production that brought together most of the album's guests artists (Ike Turner, De La Soul, Martina Topley-Bird and many more) for a colourful production on a grand scale. Letting the guests and the visuals take centre stage, Gorillaz mastermind Damon Albarn remains in the shadows with the live band and even refuses a credit on the DVD sleeve, yet the Blur frontman remains the chief conduit through which the vast range of Gorillaz rhythms flow. A little over an hour in length, with an encore capped off by lesser-known Gorillaz songs Hong Kong and Latin Simone, highlights include reclusive Neneh Cherry's appearance on Kids With Guns, the rough and syncopated sounds of Shaun Ryder (more interested in struggling to get a fag out of his pocket than singing his vocals on Dare) and the choral finale of Don't Get Lost In Heaven. With an additional option of watching the Jamie Hewlett visuals separate from the show and great sound recording throughout, Demon Days Live proves that a concert by a cartoon band is no longer an oxymoron.

This DVD is great! The show was awesome and had great sound, video, ect. Definitely worth the money. (It has an awesome case too. The booklet inside has a picture of the stained glass visualization in "Demon Days", very nice.)
