Hallelujah Monkeyz: A Gorillaz Fancast

On the eve of their next legendary live extravaganza, Dillon and Trevor once again activate your podcast feed to talk about a new Gorillaz song, a confusing LP tracklist, and a chance for you to appear on the show.

From seemingly out of nowhere, Gorillaz are back with three new tracks, and Dillon and Trevor must once again dust off the podcast machine to review them. Light up a joint and put this episode on and it'll be like the carnival has come to your home!

Dillon and Trevor gather together to review a Gorillaz collaborator album for the first time in over two years. Why? Because they are celebrating the life and mourning the passing of a one-of-kind, once-in-a-generation genius: the lyrical supervillain, MF DOOM. But before that, they'll crack open a few bottles of Hobbs Hot Sauce to try their hand at culinary criticism. Sure, Russel may know his way around a kick drum, but can he make a condiment with a kick?

Triple trouble! Trevor and Dillon sit down at the roundtable across from contest winner Alyssa Johnson (host of What a Concept!) to re-live the face-melting madness of Song Machine Live! Then the newly-formed trio rolls up their sleeves for a deep dive into Blur's landmark third LP, the Britpop generation-defining Parklife. How do you feel about getting one of the most jam-packed episodes in Hallelujah Monkeyz history? Because it gives me an ENORMOUS sense of well-being.

Having received the remaining episodes of Song Machine Season 1 far sooner than they’d ever anticipated, Dillon and Trevor take the fully assembled contraption for a test run. Plus, an exciting new contest! Don't miss your opportunity to guest star on a future episode of Hallelujah Monkeyz!

Dillon and Trevor tromp across sticky floors, shell out for overpriced refreshments, and cower under the unmerciful glow of those little flashlight wand thingies when Hallelujah Monkeyz goes to the cinema! Travel back to December when a global Gorillaz party went down in a theater near you, as the boys try to make sense of Denholm Hewlett's Phase 4 and 5 spanning documentary, Reject False Icons. And maybe, just maybe, you'll encounter some of the extended podcast family along the way...

At long last Dillon and Trevor sit down with Gorillaz lore mastermind Cass Browne for an epic tumble down memory lane. They talk cancelled Gorillaz movies, where Phase 3 was going before it all came crashing down, and what goes into a Brompton cocktail. Truly an unforgettable episode. The cup that runneth over; return of the Ogre!

This week, Dillon and Trevor are honored to have Simon Tong on the show to talk about Gorillaz, the Good, the Bad & the Queen, and more! But first they'll sit down with their reading spex and tall crimson candles to analyze, process and celebrate Damon's brand new Brexit record, "Merrie Land." Dillon even breaks down crying at one point while talking about fish, it's a wild ride.

The day of reckoning has come at last: join the Hallelujah Monkeyz live at the Pico Rivera Sports Arena in Los Angeles, California as they venture deep into the heart of the Demon Dayz festival to bear witness to the grand finale of Gorillaz (for now, at least). Will the angels be in their favor once more? Or will the devils waiting around every overpriced lemonade stand, questionably-assembled amusement park ride, and skeletal gorilla effigy littering the Demon Dayz fairground spoil the fun? Whatever happens, it’s sure to be one big party of a funeral that you won’t want to miss.

#FREETHESEA! This week on Hallelujah Monkeyz, Dillon and Trevor link up with the legendary Gorillaz-Unofficial to talk about an exciting new fan campaign, before getting a very special report from one of the band’s recent live shows. Then the boys take a seat at the round table for an in-depth discussion of the Happy Mondays’ “Pills ‘N’ Thrills and Bellyaches” — including a LANDMARK interview with Madchester icon and Gorillaz collaborator himself, Shaun Ryder! Hope you’re feeling lucky, ‘cause this madcap episode is sure to leave your melon in a knot!
