The original version of ‘Saturnz Barz’ was one of four new songs to debut in March when the virtual band returned to announce their fifth studio album, Humanz.
Humanz – the band’s first new album in six years – features an all-star lineup that includes Kelela, Grace Jones, Mavis Staples, Danny Brown, De La Soul, Pusha T and more. It’s out April 28 via Parlophone.
Last week, the Damon Albarn-created group hit another milestone when they broke YouTube’s record for the biggest debut of a VR video. Watch the surreal 360 virtual reality video for ‘Saturnz Barz’ (Spirit House) below.
