    I remember buying this when I started getting into gorillaz and thinking when I first played it, who is this? it's a great album that any die hard gorillaz fan should have. though it is very different from normal gorillaz these are great tracks. basically all ska/reggae/hip-hop versions of gorillaz first album. every gorillaz fan should get this album. 4/5

Description

Sure, Gorillaz sounded original, but it was a pop project with all the constraints that went with it--can you imagine the six-minute remixed version of "Clint Eastwood" making it onto MTV? But that's exactly what makes Laika Come Home so good. It's a reimagined collection filled with bone-shaking dubscapes and enough reverb to transmit a message to the farthest edges of the universe. Listen to the "De-Punked" version of "Punk" with its meandering, decayed trumpet and computerized tweaks--hardly recognizable as the original--or the swinging old-school ska that crops ups on "5/4." The two-tone skank of "M1/A1" (with Terry Hall) sounds as if it should have been the original version, but the real killer tracks are those injected with dancehall vibes by DJ U Brown and Earl 16. Who says "you don't get paid for doing what you love?"--not Damon Albarn. --Caroline Butler Gorillaz Photos <table width="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="4"> <tr align="center"> <td><img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/music/Gorillaz_1_thumb.jpg" width="125" border="0"></td> <td> </td> <td><img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/music/Gorillaz_2_thumb.jpg" width="125" border="0"></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr align="center"> <td><img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/music/Gorillaz_3_thumb.jpg" width="125" border="0"></td> <td> </td> <td><img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/music/Gorillaz_4_thumb.jpg" width="125" border="0"></td> <td> </td> </tr> </table> More from Gorillaz <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="4"> <tr align="center" valign="top" class="small"> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00005LMBK.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> Gorillaz</td> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000060NUN.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> G-Sides</td> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00082IJ08.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> Demon Days</td></tr> <tr> <tr align="center" valign="top" class="small"> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000077VR6.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> Gorillaz - Phase One - Celebrity Take Down</td> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000HT39CA.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> Gorillaz - Phase Two - Slowboat to Hades </td> <td width="33%"> <img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000EQ5PS2.01.SWATCHZZ.jpg" border="0"> Demon Days Live</td></tr> </table>Tearing Through the Hype, the Gorillaz have Supposedly Employed Three Remixers to Give their Debut Album a Jamaican Old Skool 'dub' Stylin'.
