Singer tells BBC that the score to a forthcoming Gorillaz feature film will be the final music from the cartoon-based band.
With his latest project, the Good, the Bad & the Queen, in full effect, sonic chameleon Damon Albarn has revealed that his previous--and most popular--project won't be releasing any more albums.
In an interview with BBC Radio 2, the Blur frontman and Gorillaz mastermind said he won't be making any more pop records under the Gorillaz moniker. The only Gorillaz project on the table, he said, was the much-rumored feature film that has been linked to filmmaker and Monty Python alum Terry Gilliam.
"We're trying to make a film next, starting in September hopefully," Albarn said. "It will be a film score. There won't be another pop record."
The band, created visually by animator Jamie Hewlett and sonically by Albarn and a who's who of contributors, released two albums, their self-titled debut in 2001 and 2005's Demon Days.
