After a six year hiatus, the cartoon collaboration of Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewllet has been resurrected for a fifth album.
After many months of teasing fans, Hewllet – the animated group’s visual artist – confirmed a return was on the cards via his Instagram account.

According to Revolt, he wrote in a comment only viewable by phone: “Yes. Gorillaz Returns.”

He also posted two new pictures of Murdoc the bassist and Noodle the guitarist which have gotten fans very excited for the next edition of acclaimed project.

The last Gorillaz album, The Fall, was released in 2011 — under the banner of the band’s third phase: Escape to Plastic Beach.
Back in 2012, amidst rumours of a falling out between Albarn and Hewllett, it was thought the last of band had been seen.

The band’s animator Jamie Hewlett claimed that “2016 is going to be Gorillaz all year.” He also commented that Albarn is a known prolific worker and said, “I don’t think it will be long!”
Since, Hewlett has backtracked on his comments, suggesting that the new album may take longer than expected. In an Instagram post by a fan who met Jamie, it was claimed that the new album is now slated for a 2017 release date, with Hewlett saying the album is “really fuckin special” but “can’t be rushed”.
Albarn gave a further update when speaking to BBC 6 Music in July and all confirmed a release date of 2017. “Later in the year we’ll be starting to get the whole Gorillaz thing together,” he said. Albarn also continued to say, “I’m loving it and it’s getting there. It should be ready fairly soon.”

On September 20, Gorillaz’ social media accounts began updating with their first bit of activity in months. The updates celebrated each phase of the group’s history, before stopping short just before Phase 4 – the upcoming cycle. In October, the group began posting brand new content, with a flurry of Twitter and Instagram activity, resulting in ‘The Book Of Noodle’ which appears to be detailing the going-ons for the fictional characters. Since, they’ve released accompanying books for each character via social media, but no official word on a release date

A meeting with a fan in February 2017 seemingly confirmed that the album was finished and that tour prep is under way. Albarn’s comments seem to match up with other posts from the rehearsal space
