Hello again people, aliens, cyborgs, animals and all kind of creatures,
who are reading our blog. It’s Maria. I decided from time to time write here about books that I’m reading, planning to read or just interested. Today will be “Rise of the Ogre”.
I found it recently, when we were making
radio show about Gorillaz.
It‘s an
autobiographical comic book about virtual band members backstories with a lot of
amazing ilustrations from Jamie Hewlett.
If
you love the band‘s music and art, I think it is a perfect book for you. It is
easy reading, funny and very colourful book. It
was released in the UK on 26 October 2006. It covers the band from 2000 and
their first EP, Tomorrow Comes Today through their 2006 tour ending at the Apollo Theater. It
contains previously unknown secrets of the band, such as future plans of the
movie, their headquarters, and the story of the truth behind the "El Mañana" video. The
book blends fact and fiction throughout, interspersing commentary from the band
members with actual quotes from their creators, collaborators and critics.
I will share with you link in Goodreads. And in the end let‘s enjoy one of my favourite songs of them J
