Short of chaining up Damon Albarn in your basement and forcing him to tell Blur touring stories, the forthcoming 14-disc vinyl box set release of Humanz is the most extreme Gorillaz collectable yet. Well, not yet – the set doesn’t drop until August 25.
The box is priced at US$499.99 and is “presented across 14 individual pieces of different coloured 12” vinyl, packaged in individually art-worked sleeves. Each piece of vinyl features an album track, backed with an exclusive alternative version.
“The box also includes a 54-page, cloth-bound, foil-blocked, hardback book featuring exclusive Gorillaz artwork by Jamie Hewlett plus a download card, all housed in a bespoke 12″ vinyl case.”
