Damon Albarn has leaked a second sneak peek of the forthcoming Gorillaz album, Plastic Beach (out March 9), posting a stream of “Superfast Jellyfish” on YouTube — listen here!
The track features Super Furry Animals frontman Gruff Rhys singing a sunshine-drenched pop hook and De La Soul dropping verses over a thudding hip-hop bassline — recapturing the winning formula of “Feel Good Inc.” off Gorillaz’ 2005 album, Demon Days, which also included a cameo by De La Soul.
With their album release date less than a month away, the band has ratcheted up their online promotional blitz: Earlier this week, a post-apocalyptic video game starring the band’s animated characters appeared on the official Gorillaz site, and the band offered up a free stream of lead single “Stylo,” featuring Mos Def and Bobby Womack, last month.
