More about: Gorillaz

Gorillaz have dropped a surprise EP on the eve of what should have been Notting Hill Carnival. Just in time for the August Bank Holiday, Meanwhile EP is three tracks of pure brilliance—are they capable of making anything less?

Standout and title track 'Meanwhile' features Jelani Blackman, one of our picks to see this weekend at All Points East. West London local AJ Tracey stars on the dubby 'Jimmy Jimmy' while 'Déjà Vu' is steelpan heavy, nodding to the classic Carnival discipline.

The EP follows Gorillaz' return to live performances, with their massive, 31-song O2 show.
