Man, the freaking gate flew open today when it comes to Gorillaz!

As I’ve discussed previously on here, their new album Plastic Beach will be released this year, and we have the first single (“Stylo”, feat. Mos Def & Bobby Womack), the release date, the real tracklist and what I believe is the album art (Pitchfork didn’t elaborate).

First, the album cover, which you see at the top of the post, literally, a plastic beach.

Second, here’s the full tracklisting, dramatically different from the one I posted earlier in the month:

01 Orchestral Intro (ft. Sinfonia ViVA) 02 Welcome to the World of the Plastic Beach (ft. Snoop Dogg and Hypnotic Brass Ensemble) 03 White Flag (ft. Kano, Bashy, and the National Orchestra for Arabic Music) 04 Rhinestone Eyes 05 Stylo (ft. Bobby Womack and Mos Def) 06 Superfast Jellyfish (ft. Gruff Rhys and De La Soul) 07 Empire Ants (ft. Little Dragon) 08 Glitter Freeze (ft. Mark E Smith) 09 Some Kind Of Nature (ft. Lou Reed) 10 On Melancholy Hill 11 Broken 12 Sweepstakes (ft. Mos Def and Hypnotic Brass Ensemble) 13 Plastic Beach (ft. Mick Jones and Paul Simonon) 14 To Binge (ft. Little Dragon) 15 Cloud of Unknowing (ft. Bobby Womack and Sinfonia ViVA) 16 Pirate Jet

Last, but not least, why you’re really here - “Stylo”.

The song can’t be embedded, but you can check it out on YouTube here.

It’s a strange, almost 80’s electro clash type of song.  I can’t say I dig it (yet), but I guess we’ll see how the whole album goes.

Plastic Beach hits shelves on March 9th.
