November Has Come

The song *November Has Come* by Gorillaz, included in their second album *Demon Days*, delves into reflections on the current state of hip-hop and addresses more abstract themes such as the end of an era or even the apocalypse. In his verses, MF DOOM laments what he perceives as the decay of popular hip-hop, suggesting that its moments of greatest splendor have already passed. For his part, 2-D's voice in the song signals the arrival of November, a prelude to the end of the year, symbolizing an imminent closure. This track was recorded at Studio 13 in London, United Kingdom. The main production was handled by Danger Mouse, with the collaboration of the band itself, Jason Cox, and James Dring.

Jason Cox also participated as recording engineer and in the mixing alongside Danger Mouse and Gorillaz. The album *Demon Days* was released on different dates: May 11, 2005, in Japan, May 23, 2005, in the United Kingdom under the Parlophone label, and May 24, 2005, in the United States through Virgin Records.
