Eh
It was a random thing that seemed to serve a perpous until the very end.
Reviews for "Is Murdoc dead?"
Argh..
That seriously made me sick to my stomach..and was not entertaing at all. You will make me pie to soothe my stomach pains!
Bollocks..
Murdoc is immortal, you fool.
Interesting theory...
...but that barely stops it from being crap. the lyrics to the song are just lyrics, they dont mean anything. and the pictures in the booklet hardly count. bands have pulled off things like this before, putting clues in songs that lead to a band member being dead, but they never say it right out, or draw pictures of them as zombies. they would never be so obvious. the beatles did this with paul, except they would put things like open palms over paul's head (which is a sign of blessing to the dead), or a tape of a car crash played followed by paul's voice saying "let me out! let me out!" - backwards. the zombies were just booklet art, and the grim reaper thing might have just symbolized the rest of the group fading away from music.
WTF?????????
Okay so I ythink that you are a bloody fool who is reading way far into the litteral meaning. The enire CD needs to be seen in a figuratice sense. the CD is about how the Gorillaz have changed since Clint Eastwood. It shows that Russel, 2-D, and Murdoc have been enjoying the life of fame so much that they forgot who they were and were almost taken over by a false reality. It was Noodle who had never fallen into the tray. That is why you see that Noodle is not blended with the reaper. So in a sense they died because they left there trueselfs behind, buit it was only in thier mind.
