Japanese record company EMI Japan has decided to commission Bleach author Tite Kubo's unique drawing style to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Gorillaz by having him illustrate the band members for the Japanese release of "The Singles Collection 2001-2011" by the group last month in Japan. He has also penned his thoughts on debuting "Bleach" at the same time the group launched that Spring.
The impact from "Clint Eastwood" still lingers 10 years on.
In the same year I started to draw my current work, Gorillaz released the 1st album.
For these 10 years, Gorillaz have remained very special to me.
They will continue to do so for the next 10.Before the next 10 years begin, I need to listen to this album.
Thanks Gorillaz. All the best for the next 10 years.
Tite Kubo
