The actual final sound is the same though, no? I keep saying them both out loud and the Z sound is the same. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing differently.

Yeah same & my flatmate just knocked on my door to ask if I was okay. 

Dunno really Sanchez definitely sounds softer to me. Also I'd never say Sanchez's anyway

Technically no. In the Spanish language they don't pronounce 'z' like we do. In Spain, where there are people called Sanchez, it'd be more of a 'th' sound at the end - I'm not sure if that's the same in Chile but I'm sure it's not like we'd say the 'z' in Gorillaz.

Fair enough but I still can't work out what it is that makes me treat Gorillaz and (my punctuation of) Sanchez differently seeing as I use the same Z sound for both. Weird.

Yeah thats how you pronounce it. It's guh-rill-iz not guh-rill-as

If you pronounce it the latter way I bet you pronounce scone wrong as well (it actually rhymes with gone)

Are they actually doing any uk gigs at all? Just the one in margate which is already sold out. The new album is pretty poor so far, just too many collabarations. Plastic beach had some great tracks on it. I only really rate the one with vince staples and andromeda.
