According to consequence.net, The Gorillaz will be teamed up with Thundercat in order to release a new single titled “Cracker Island” on Wednesday June 22nd. This will be the first release by The Gorillaz since their Meanwhile EP, just last year. The song was coproduced by Grammy winning writer Greg Kurstin and Remi Kabaka Jr. who helped cultivate very interesting cult themed lyrics such as, “On Cracker Island it will die/ Join the collective in the sky/ And on the shining bolt of light.” As a part of the Gorillaz new era of music, they have invited fans to join what they refer to as ” The Last Cult”, where bassist Murdoc is considered the “self-appointed great leader”. The Gorillaz are currently in the middle of a worldwide tour where they will be touring the U.S. later on this Fall.
