Damon Albarn needs to take a break from recording Gorillaz stuff, because his artistic progression is missing its audience.
The last good thing I heard him do was on Massive Attack's "Heligoland" album, and even that wasn't all that good.
I seem to like Mayday's stuff, though. I would likely buy their album before I bought a Ces Cru album, not that they are comparable or anything, but just based on Tech's word of mouth about the two acts abilities.
