Customer Reviews Summary

Went for the 'posh' hard cover/2 disc version. Nice pride of ownership over standard packaging and very well presented. Musically, it's another diversion with an Indian tint this time, but still distinctly Gorillaz. Very enjoyable and likely to be played at Hifi shows for years to come. Recommended.
