Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn have been hinting at the nearing return of Gorillaz since the beginning of this year, with the recording of new material planned to start in September. In a recent interview with DIY Magazine, Hewlett cast more light on the band’s return, saying the following:

“That’s next year. I’m working on it at the moment, and it’s going very well. I’m very excited.. I don’t want to say too much about it, but I’m at that phase of experimentation. What I try not to do when I’m working in this creative period, the cooking of the mess, is go to other peoples’ exhibitions and look at other peoples’ work. I close my eyes, and don’t want to know what anyone else is doing. Doing that has kind of ruined the creative process for me in the past, and I don’t want to let that happen again.”

Meanwhile, Gorillaz fans might be excited to hear that this coming November, James Hewlett will exhibit his works at London’s Saatchi Gallery.
