Gorillaz Dublin setlist has band perform The Mountain and classic songs on tour’s penultimate show

Gorillaz performed a setlist of hits and recent songs from The Mountain at the 3Arena in Dublin, their penultimate show on the UK and Ireland tour.

The Damon Albarn-fronted group has dipped into their back catalogue on previous shows, with the band performing Re-Hash in Belfast, Northern Ireland and Slow Country at a show in Nottingham. The first of two shows in Dublin was full of surprises too, with the band looking to bow out on a high as this leg of The Mountain tour comes to a close. While there were no huge surprises in the 3Arena show from last night (April 1), the band did perform some of their very best songs, newest tracks, and an encore featuring Posdnuos and Trueno.

In a five-star review of the album, Cult Following described The Mountain as a return to form for the Albarn-fronted group, who made the most of archival tapes and fresh collaborations.

The review reads: “Albarn is keen to curate, and The Mountain is the most successful example of that for him to date. From posthumous appearances which feel like worthy inclusions to the sharp writing style Albarn has brought to this round of Gorillaz songs, it’s hard to feel like The Mountain is anything but a borderline masterstroke.”
