Amazon.co.uk Review
A collection of B Sides (Sorry, G Sides) from a band with only one album to their credit should be an exercise in lowest-common-denominator barrel-scraping. But Gorillaz' G Sides, as befits a band whose "live" performances take months of preparation, is an exercise in careful planning that actually manages to outstrip this near certainty. It's by no means a work of lost gems. "19-2000" features as a more uptempo mix, and "Clint Eastwood" reappears as the more chunky mix performed on the BRITs with Phi Life Cypher, and as a CD-ROM video. Other tracks, such as the closer "12D3" come across as 13 era Blur on autopilot. Unsurprisingly it's not hefty either, weighing in at a fairly paltry 37 minutes and 10 tracks, but overall it provides a fairly good companion to the album, and is better than it has any right to be. --Chris Blenkarn

CD Description
After being originally compiled for the US market, 'G-Sides' is now available in the UK. It follows the virtual band's double platinum selling, eponymously titled album of 2001. 'G-Sides' is a compilation of B-sides, remixes and videos - some of which have not been available on CD before.

Customer Reviews

Ooh ooh ooh!
As a Gorillaz fan I wasn't disappointed by this collection of 'G-sides'. This is the kind of album you can stick in the cd player, kick off your shoes, have friends round and chill to. I enjoyed the freshness of the tunes and the originality of the concept. Recommended.

A great side-dish to an already excellent main course
G-Sides is, as mentioned, an album of b-sides (or in this age of CD's, extra tracks) from the first Gorillaz album.

Whats particularly good about the album is getting hold of tracks that you would have missed other wise, stuff like the Scientist/Dub influenced "Dracula" is a great addition, with its heavy bass sound, and the mellow hip-hopp of "The Sounder".

This is a must have album for the Gorillaz completist (if there is such a thing) but if you have enjoyed even just one of their tracks, its worth picking this up to sample some of their other flavours.

Great as always
This is a fantistic Cd and deserves to be bought. The only problem is that they put on two songs that they have on Gorillaz[UK]:
'19-2000 (Soulchild Remyx/Remix)'
and
'Rock The House'.
Even though on the CD, they put put on a '(edit)' at the end, i think, that they just cut out a possible swear word.
Despite these setbacks, all in all this is a great album.
