It looks very plausible that Noel Gallagher will feature, in some way, shape or form, on the new Gorillaz album.
The acclaimed animated music project, helmed by Gallagher’s old Britpop rival Damon Albarn, are currently preparing to release a long-anticipated new album. Earlier this month, artist Jamie Hewlett shared new artwork, as well as video footage of Albarn hard at work in the studio.
In a new interview with The Daily Star, Gallagher said of Albarn: “He’s making a new Gorillaz album and he’s got my number, so he’s only got to ask. There is talk of doing something but I’m not sure what it is.”
He added, “You can bet your life the minute I finish this tour he’ll go out on his. I mean trying to get the two of us in the same room would be a fucking miracle. But I’m certainly open to the idea, for sure.”
Sounds promising.
