Am Christmas Day, 25. Dezember verschenken die Gorillaz ihr neues Album „The Fall“ an die Mitglieder des Gorillaz-Fanclub Subdivision. „The Fall“ wurde während der US-Tour der Gorillaz im Oktober (im Herbst daher auch der Albumtitel) aufgenommen. Produziert wurde das Album überwiegend auf dem iPad.
Im Interview mit der australischen Radion Station Triple J hat Damon Albarn die Details zum neuen Album verraten. Das gesamte Interview mit dem Gorillaz Frontmann und eine wunderbare Studio Session („Melancholy Hill“, „Rhinestone Eyes“ und „To Binge“ feat. Yukimi von Little Dragon) könnt ihr auf der Triple J Website nachhören.
