Gorillaz – The Fall

(Virgin Records) Proceed with Caution.

According to the Gorillaz, each album was a representation of a specific member’s musical style. The self titled debut showcased Russell’s hip-hop/funk roots. ‘Demon Days’ was a reflection of Noodle’s dark, doomy side, and ‘Plastic Beach’ was an exploration into the depths of Murdoc’s thoughts. And, now, with The Fall it’s time for 2-D (aka Damon Albarn) to showcase his personal and distinctive vision.

TwoPointOh!LA’s Pre Fashion Week Party

Two Point Oh! LA hosted its 3rd pre-fashion week party at The Falls lounge in Downtown, Los Angeles. Kelsi Smith always does a good job of organizing events for the TwoPointOh!LA members, and I have to say she picked a great place to host this event. I loved the laid-back vibe, the artfully chic décor, and the creative drink menu. The signature drink for the evening was The Stiletto. I was too busy soaking up the ambiance to notice what the bartender was mixing together, but I do know it contained the juice of a freshly squeezed blood orange and champagne. We also tried one of the house’s signature drinks - The Mustang Ranch, which was made with red pepper vodka, fresh organic strawberries, basil, lime juice, and simple syrup. The Falls is located near gallery row so be sure to hit it up if you’re attending Art Walk.
