The album was notable for its eclectic mix of genres and featured collaborations with various artists, including notable tracks like "Stylo" and "Rhinestone Eyes." At Glastonbury, the band showcased their unique blend of animation and live music, marking a significant moment in their career where they transitioned into a more prominent live performance presence. The concert notably featured guest appearances by artists such as Roses Gabor and Shaun Ryder, adding to the vibrant and collaborative atmosphere of the live set. This period also highlighted Gorillaz's growing influence in the music industry as they continued to innovate with their multimedia approach, seamlessly blending virtual and physical performances.
