With the 2D, Noodle, Russel and Murdoc having temporarily relocated to California, ‘Cracker Island’ is the latest instalment in the Gorillaz story. It neatly distils the band’s many creative strengths into one cohesive, uplifting experience with “…some of the best pop songs Albarn has written in an age” [THE GUARDIAN] and calls upon guests ranging from contemporary favourites Bad Bunny and Tame Impala to the legendary Stevie Nicks. Their second consecutive Grammy-nominated album, ‘Cracker Island’ also became Gorillaz’ first UK #1 since ‘Demon Days’ almost eighteen years earlier.
