The Fall is the fourth studio album by British virtual band Gorillaz. It was first released as a download for members of the Gorillaz fan club on 25 December 2010, followed by a wider physical release on 19 April 2011 by Parlophone in the United Kingdom and Virgin Records in the United States. Gorillaz co-founder Damon Albarn recorded The Fall during the North American leg of the Escape to Plastic Beach Tour in fall 2010 using only an iPad and a few additional instruments. Most of the album's tracks were each written and recorded in a single day, and Albarn did not make any later additions or overdubs, describing the album as "a kind of diary of my experience in America." Many of the songs and lyrics reference the locations in which they were recorded. Unlike other Gorillaz albums, The Fall features few guest artists; collaborators include Bobby Womack, and Mick Jones and Paul Simonon of The Clash. Its physical release was preceded by the double A-side single "Revolving Doors" / "Amarillo".
