Nexus Studios director Fx Goby and Gorillaz co-creator Jamie Hewlett are again at it with a brand new music video that merges the animated quartet with pyrotechnics and prosthetics right into a creepy/comedian slice of enjoyable.
Right here’s a phrase from the staff at Nexus in London that will help you make sense of all of it: “Early final yr the Gorillaz relocated to Silver Lake, California, the place their new mansion dwelling within the hills proved to be the right base from which to recruit new members to affix ‘The Final Cult’.
“Early studies indicated that The Nice Chief AKA Murdoc shouldn’t be solely in love with the woman subsequent door, however has a brand new scent, bottled as his personal Divine Essence. Russel is glued to the TV in an effort to salvage some that means from the static and save humanity, whereas Noodle is compiling a handbook of knowledge and information. 2D is busy being 2D.
“With the band seeking the One Fact to repair the world (and Murdoc out to impress his neighbor), they’re barrelling in direction of a prophesized day of reckoning referred to as The Rupture. What that is, and the destiny of the band itself is revealed within the ‘Silent Operating’ video.”
