A decade of monkeying around...


It's hard to beleive, but The Gorlliaz are celebrating ten years of recording greatness. And it's an impressive discography that includes random remixes, odd contributions, and an inventive style and execution that put the gang on the map for quite some time.

A virtual cartoon band in a new, at the time, unrealized genre? And boasting such characters as a leader who is a bassist and a proud Satanist, a drummer that channels a dead rapper, an orphaned run away Japanese girl, and a cultural throw away for a lead singer...

With the fate of the band up in the air, it's a good time to stop and take stock of what they've pulled off. Here's to hoping for ten more fabulous years!
