Gorillaz

[the wonderwhy]

It's too bloody long, that's for sure. Though I suppose I am listening to the Deluxe version because Spotify is silly

Great meaning large or immense?

You're saying Gorillaz wrong 

How am I supposed to be saying it? I say it the same as gorillas.

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.

This is worse than when someone asked which were the biggest stages.

We use it in the pejorative sense!

Opens Spotify - Plays three tracks - Closes Spotify

All the special guests can't cover up an absolute turkey. If it wasn't Damon the album would've been rejected by the record company.

Gorillaz ends with an iz sound

Sanchez enda with an ez sound

What?  Gorillaz ends with an 'as' or 'ers' sound surely?

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)

[FloorFiller]

Say 'Gorillas'

You've just learnt how to say 'Gorillaz'

The tracks they released before are two of the opening three songs!

[Wooderson]

Are there any canonically "great" albums where the first three songs are the worst?

[gmb1992]

Gave it part of a listen on my lunch break... a good 50 minutes but haven't finished it and don't have a great desire to finish listening ut I will.

Maybe it will be a grower

[Ryanp1993]

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.
