Damon Albarn’s Gorillaz released a new album, Humanz, today via Warner Bros. Last night the band stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to perform “Let Me Out.” The studio version features the guest vocals of soul legend Mavis Staples and Pusha T. Staples showed up in a pre-recorded video, but Pusha T was in person. It definitely felt more like a concert than a standard late night TV performance. Watch it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Gorillaz have shared videos for “Hallelujah Money,” which featured the guest vocals of Mercury Prize winner Benjamin Clementine, and “Saturnz Barz,” which featured “Popcan.” They also shared three other songs from the album when it was announced: “Ascension” (featuring Vince Staples), “We Got the Power” (featuring Savages’ Jehnny Beth), and “Andromeda” (featuring D.R.A.M.). And that was followed by “Let Me Out,” which features the guest vocals of soul legend Mavis Staples and Pusha T. Then there was the deluxe edition track “The Apprentice,” which features Rag’n'Bone Man, Zebra Katz, and RAY BLK.

The album features a slew of special guests, including Jehnny Beth of Savages, Danny Brown, Benjamin Clementine, De La Soul, D.R.A.M., Peven Everett, Anthony Hamilton, Grace Jones, Zebra Katz, Kelela, Mavis Staples, Vince Staples, Popcaan, Pusha T, Jamie Principle, Noel Gallagher, and Kali Uchis.

Humanz will be available on standard CD, vinyl, and digital download with 14 songs, as well as a 19-track 2-CD deluxe edition. There will also be a limited edition “Super Deluxe Vinyl Box Set” that features additional alternative versions of all 14 of the main album tracks.
