Sure, Gorillaz sounded original, but it was a pop project with all the constraints that went with it–can you imagine the six-minute remixed version of “Clint Eastwood” making it onto MTV? But that’s exactly what makes Laika Come Home so good. It’s a reimagined collection filled with bone-shaking dubscapes and enough reverb to transmit a message to the farthest edges of the universe. Listen to the “De-Punked” version of “Punk” with its meandering, decayed trumpet and computerized tweaks–hardly recognizable as the original–or the swinging old-school ska that crops ups on “5/4.” The two-tone skank of “M1/A1” (with Terry Hall) sounds as if it should have been the original version, but the real killer tracks are those injected with dancehall vibes by DJ U Brown and Earl 16. Who says “you don’t get paid for doing what you love?”–not Damon Albarn. –Caroline Butler
