Gorillaz: New book, DVD on the way |
|
More Gorillaz releases are coming this year, with a feature-packed DVD and animated book both confirmed for release.
The animated toon project, led by Damon Albarn and designer Jamie Hewlett, released their second album last year, but many were unsure of the project's long-term plan after the band members were apparently 'killed' in the last music video.
However, to surmise the albums release a new DVD "Phase Two- Slowboat to Hades" has been announced for release on October 31 - rounding up the Demon Days era's award-winning videos, hi-tech performances, inventive animated shorts, acceptance speeches and more.
A Gorillaz autobiography is also confirmed to hit bookshelves this winter, with the 256-page autobiography out November 2nd via Penguin Books. 'Rise of the Ogre' is the story of the world's most successful virtual group, as told by all four members of the band assisted by writer Cass Browne.
The book was designed by Jamie Hewlett and his studio team at Zombie Flesh Eaters, and will feature scores of new images, contributions from the band's collaborators, stolen moments behind the scenes, pictures from Gorillaz' personal albums...as well as 'all the gossip, innuendo and scandal you'd expect from a best-selling pop group.
Finally, a series of EPs is to be made available exclusively on iTunes featuring original Gorillaz music, accompanied by previously unreleased videos and a digital booklet with images and access to bonus content like wallpaper, buddy icons and more.
The roll out for the EPs is as follows:
DARE - October 24
Dirty Harry - November 7
El Manana - December 5
Feel Good Inc - December 26
