Gorillaz unveil new track ‘Sleeping Powder’
Gorillaz’ latest album ‘Humanz’ was packed to the rafters with bangers, and yet Damon Albarn and his animated posse still have a few tracks that didn’t quite make the cut. ‘Sleeping Powder’ is one of them, and don’t let that name fool you – when have Gorillaz ever sent anyone to sleep? So while it may start out as 2D just sitting down alone at the harpsichord and acoustic guitar, giving us a bit of a contemplative ballad, but it soon morphs into a big old dance number. There’s also an accompanying video, which kicks off with a famous anti-drug PSA featuring a fried egg. That’s your brain on drugs apparently, but this video is your brain on Gorillaz. Watch the video for ‘Sleeping Powder’ below.
