Plastic Beach (Feat. Mick Jones and Paul Simonon)

Wiki

  • Length

    3:47

"Plastic Beach" is the thirteenth and eponymous track to Gorillaz' third studio album. This song conveys the idea of the trends we are currently going through, addressing pollution and the rise of cyberculture.

“It’s a special moment for fans of Gorillaz and the Clash. How did this come about? Well, I had commandeered Paul Simonon from the Good, The Bad And The Queen. And it made sense.

Gorillaz were always influenced by The Clash. They were always my favourite band, I loved how they took the heart and soul of punk and reggae smeared it in London graffiti and paint and then sailed it round the world. I don’t think that’s a million miles from what Gorillaz do now.“

– band member Murdoc Niccals in an interview with NME
