Gorillaz's The Mountain lands on CD in a softpak sleeve with a booklet, the virtual band's ninth studio album and one of its most affecting.
Released in 2026 on Kong, the band's own label, the album was shaped by loss. Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett both lost close family members while it was being made, and the songs circle death, mourning and whatever might lie beyond. Indian classical instrumentation, recorded in cities from Mumbai to Varanasi, sits alongside sessions in London and Devon, giving everything a vast, searching feel.
Albarn produced with Remi Kabaka Jr., James Ford and Samuel Egglenton, and the guest list spans eras and continents. Anoushka Shankar's sitar weaves through much of the set, "The Happy Dictator" pairs the band with Sparks for a slice of wry satire, and "The God of Lying" brings in IDLES.
Most poignant are the voices of collaborators no longer here. "The Hardest Thing" features the late Tony Allen, and Bobby Womack, Dennis Hopper and Mark E. Smith all appear through previously unused recordings, while "Damascus" teams Omar Souleyman with Yasiin Bey.
Lush, strange and quietly moving, The Mountain shows Gorillaz still finding new places to go a quarter of a century in, and still willing to sit with the hardest questions.
