The band is made up of Damon Albarn from Blur, Paul Simonon of The Clash on bass, Simon Tong of The Verve on guitar, and Tony Allen from Fela Kuti's band on drums. Danger Mouse produced. The album has a very laidback sound, and is certainly a product of the reggae/afrobeat influence of Paul and Tony. Officially the band doesn't have a name, but the album is called The Good The Bad and The Queen.

You can stream it the FULL album here:

On paper, this is the band of the century.
Going to listen now...
Because the game isn't played on paper.

EDIT:
CRAP!!!! MySpace is blocked!!!

IMPORTANT: This is just a webrip of the album from the band's myspace page, so the quality is not very good. There are pops and skips present in the songs on the myspace page, so there's nothing I could do to get rid of them when I captured the audio. If you don't want to hear a low quality transcode of the album, don't download this and wait for a better rip. I just figured some might want it regardless.

i think it's funny that you mentioned The Verve and not Fela in the headline.

This will probably be my first purchase of 2007 once it comes out. Anyone know if they're gonna have it on vinyl?

i only heard one song (in Dri's car). liked it, but didn't see such a difference then 'Gorillaz' except for different cats playing the tracks.

I'll still check it out.

just heard the few songs posted to various blogs and have been totally underwhelmed by it. i will give it a few more chances because i like everyone involved, but i'm not holding out much hope for it to be a contender.

I bought it last week and did a quality rip of it (V0). PM me if interested, but keep in mind I can't actually sendspace it until I get home tonight.

I like it okay. I built it up in my mind too much though.
