Hallelujah Monkeyz: A Gorillaz Fancast

With a Russian space dog at the helm and some reggae on the stereo, Dillon and Trevor set their controls for the heart of the dub and take an interstellar look at Laika Come Home -- with a little help from one of the Spacemonkeyz themselves, Dubversive! It's one small step for a dog, one giant leap for monkeyz everywhere.

The Hallelujah Monkeyz End of the Summer Double Episode Bananaz Blowout continues as Dillon and Trevor welcome director Ceri Levy to the show for an in-depth chat about his years as Gorillaz' documentarian. What's it like being inches away from a vomiting Damon Albarn? Tune in and find out!

Having subjected themselves to an exhausting season of exploring every last nook and cranny of the Gorillaz mythos, Dillon and Trevor kick back and unwind with a copy of Bananaz, Ceri Levy's 2008 documentary about the first two phases of the project. Well, really it's a movie about Damon Albarn trying to catch a cigarette in his mouth, but I think they mention the band a few times too.

Like two fledgling paleontologists, Dillon and Trevor take on the incomplete skeleton that is Phase 3's storyline and do their best to reassemble it into a beautiful T-Rex. Meanwhile, Murdoc Niccals has a serious drinking problem.

Dillon and Trevor call the first meeting of the Hallelujah Monkeyz Book Club to order and discuss the first half of the band's 2006 biography, Rise of the Ogre. It's a real page-turner of an episode!

All that, and teatime with Damon Albarn. Patreon: www.patreon.com/hallelujahmonkeyz Discord: discord.gg/Nr9Du4S Twitter: twitter.com/gorillazfancast

Trevor and Dillon fall asleep watching the band's DVDs, Celebrity Takedown and Slowboat to Hades -- each a marathon of odds and ends guaranteed to leave even the most fervent Gorillaz fans feeling a bit "eel."

After that, it's time to lay the cards on the table and rank the podcast's favorite Gorillaz songs and albums in what's sure to be a heated death match for the ages.
