And the Lion Shall Lie Down with the Lamb, Part 2: Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher Working Together

Back in the coke-fueled days of Britpop, Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher were mortal enemies, a feud that was hyped up by the British music press. Their mutual grumpiness sold a lot of magazines.

But that was then. Both of them grew up, got over themselves and put the past behind them. While not exactly buddies, all animosity has dissipated. Everyone is living happily ever after right? So how’s this for happy?

Word is that Damon discussed working with Noel on a new Gorillaz track called “We Got the Power.”  From The NME:

Albarn said it was “really great” and that Gallagher is “fantastic in the studio”. He added: “It’s nice when you see how someone goes about their business. He’s great.”

A single also came out today.
