Gorillaz debut new song featuring Snoop Dogg, say new album coming “very soon”

Gorillaz released their brilliant, sprawling new LP ‘Humanz’ last year, and it looks like they’re already working on the follow-up.

“We’re working on another Gorilllaz album that we’re going to be releasing next year,” the band’s Jamie Hewlett said in a recent interview with for the TASCHEN podcast.

“So we’re going straight into the album with no break. Usually we have a good five-year break between each album but we decided: ‘You know what? Let’s keep going’ because there’s ideas for a few more albums so we’re going to go straight into that. That’s will be all of next year and probably the year beyond that.”

The band have now shared new material that looks like it’s set to appear on the album. The band played a show in Santiago, Chile recently, and debuted ‘Hollywood’, which looks like it’s set to appear on the new album, and features a guest verse from Snoop Dogg.

Damon Albarn also revealed that the new album will be out “very soon”, telling the crowd: “If you go and tell anyone that we’re putting a new album out very soon then I’ll deny it because I didn’t say that, alright?”
