{"product_id":"gorillaz-g-sides-cd","title":"Gorillaz - G-Sides [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eG-Sides rounds up the B-sides and remixes from Gorillaz's first era on an enhanced CD, a 2001 collection that first appeared in Japan before reaching the rest of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDamon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett's cartoon band had just pulled off one of the cleverest tricks in pop, selling millions of copies for a group that technically did not exist. The debut album's success left a pile of stray recordings, and G-Sides gathers them into a short, playful companion that shows how loose and experimental the project was from the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e19-2000 (Soulchild Remix) is the standout, a sunnier, bouncier take on the single that many fans actually prefer to the original. Dracula is a woozy, half-asleep lullaby with Albarn's voice drifting through reverb, and Faust shuffles along on a lo-fi, dubby groove. Left Hand Suzuki Method is an odd, playful experiment, a reminder that the band always sat somewhere between Albarn's songcraft and pure studio mischief.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe enhanced disc adds computer content alongside the audio, a very early-2000s bonus that fits the band's multimedia spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a small, strange, rewarding side door into the Gorillaz universe, best enjoyed after the debut album has worn a groove in your memory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57439081496881,"sku":"724353694203","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/1200x1200bb_2112d0fb-63c9-49cd-ad2b-fa6cfd8b641e.jpg?v=1794151988","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/gorillaz-g-sides-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
