Damon Albarn’s Gorillaz released a new album, Humanz, back in April via Warner Bros. Now they have shared a brand new song not found on the album, “Sleeping Powder,” via its video. Unlike many of the songs on the guest heavy Humanz, this track seems to just feature Albarn’s vocals. The video opens with the old “this is your brain on drugs” fried egg PSA from the ‘80s, before featuring the computer animated character 2D singing the song and dancing in front of various backgrounds. Watch it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Gorillaz have shared videos for Humanz tracks “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.
