Sydney, AU. (EMI
Music Australia) - 'In all honesty we're the most original and exciting thing to hit the world of entertainment since the stick and the hoop.' 2D, singer of
Gorillaz Gorillaz: Phase Two - Slowboat to Hades DVD will be released by EMI on the 11th November 2006.
Gorillaz' second album 'Demon Days' and its accompanying videos took the world and its websites by storm. Following on from their fantastically successful Phase One - Celebrity Takedown DVD, Slowboat to Hades rounds up these incredible documents for the first time and captures them in digital formaldehyde; from the award-winning videos and hi-tech performances to their inventive animated shorts, Gorillaz' appearance on MTV Cribs, acceptance speeches and more.
All of these delights - including new and exclusive content - can be accessed through the interactive menu, a brand-new 3D DVD reconstruction of Gorillaz' online hangout Kong Studios, now abandoned by the band. Using the map provided, viewers can wander through this decaying palace of sin and watch the breathtaking live performances in the cinema, visit the wreckage of the band's bedrooms, tour the corridors and find interviews, original animatics, cameos from some of the 'Demon Days' guests and off-colour jokes galore.
A bonus CD Rom includes a whole library of wallpapers and screensavers and 16 fiendishly addictive games, including Gorillaz.com favourites Animal Kwackers, Tiles of the Unexpected, Operation and the Potato Peeler. High scorers will be rewarded with hidden extras.
The building might be crumbling, but there has never been a better opportunity to look through the debris and salvage all the action from Kong Studios and the Gorillaz archive.
All menu animations, layout, design and concept by JC Hewlett and Zombie Flesh Eaters. Videos and MTV Cribs produced by Passion Pictures.
CD Rom includes:
16 games with fullscreen mode: Russel's Animal Kwackers, Bowling, Russels Cookie Eating, Darts, Dirty Harry, Helly-Drop, Identikit, Operation, Potato, Santa Sleigher, Pumpomatic, Shooting Range, Mahjong, Murdoc's Attache, Tiles of the Unexpected, Bonesy Apple Bobbing; plus eight screensavers, 45 wallpapers and hidden, achievement based extras.
