Description: Sure, Gorillaz sounded original, but it was a pop project with all the constraints that went with it--can you imagine the six-minute remixed version of "Clint Eastwood" making it onto MTV? But that's exactly what makes Laika Come Home so good. It's a reimagined collection filled with bone-shaking dubscapes and enough reverb to transmit a message to the farthest edges of the universe. Listen to the "De-Punked" version of "Punk" with its meandering, decayed trumpet and computerized tweaks--hardly recognizable as the original--or the swinging old-school ska that crops ups on "5/4." The two-tone skank of "M1/A1" (with Terry Hall) sounds as if it should have been the original version, but the real killer tracks are those injected with dancehall vibes by DJ U Brown and Earl 16. Who says "you don't get paid for doing what you love?"--not Damon Albarn. --Caroline Butler

La la la la la la la la la hey!

Ok, if you don't like Gorillaz go away. If you don't like remix's go away. If you don't like reggae music go away! Ok, now that we're past that the doors to Laika Come Home will be opened to you. IMO this is a good CD. Some people will say it's awful, but there's things I didn't even really notice about the original songs until I listened to the Spacemonkeyz remixes. The 5 that really stand out to me are 19-2000 (very slow, droopy downbeat with a good baseline), Slow Country, New Genius, Re-Hash (an awsome New Orleans Jazz feel), and M1A1. I've never been a big fan of the original M1A1, but the remix is really sweet. It sort of has an inviting friendship feel. I don't know how to discribe it. In the original it's just "M1A1 blah blah" without any music. This remix actually has music, heh. I suggest that if you like Gorillaz and you're willing to even step outside the Gorillaz box than you should check this CD out.

Let's face it, you can't really improve Gorillaz music... and why would you WANT to de-punk "Punk"? I wouldn't reccomend this if you're a fan of Gorillaz music.

new Classic Dub Reggae

I bought this cd on a whim when it came out, having heard ( and seen the video for ) Clint Eastwood.I have since bought the original Gorillaz cd, and I must say I prefer this over the original, being a big fan of dub reggae and chill-out type grooves. This is AWESOME. If you have the original Gorillaz cd and appreciate the diversity of the songs, you will more than likely not get into this one, as the songs admittedly all sound somewhat the same, they all have a very laid back reggae groove to them. But I can highly recommend this for fans of dub reggae.
