Damon Albarn starts a new band called Rocket Juice and the Moon for some reason

Rather than reuniting with Blur so fans can once again rock out to "Girls & Boys" and other amazing 90's jams, Damon Albarn has been working on yet another super-project. 

You’d think with Damian, Red Hot Chili Peppers's bassist Flea and drummer Tony Allen (The Good, the Bad and the Queen) on board, the three creative and kick-ass musicians could think of a stronger band name than Rocket Juice and the Moon. I guess it could be worse. Like, Hoobastank worse.

The trio are also a part of a super-group that features the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, a trumpet player, and a South African rapper just to name a few. They go by An Honest Jon’s Chop Up. Again, leaving the creativity for the songwriting and instrumentation, not the titling.

"I get to the studio every day, five days a week … It's just a job at the end of the day, but I just happen to be very, very interested in developing my job. It's everything to me,” Damon said in an interview with The Guardian.

Rocket Juice and the Moon are slated to play in Dublin tomorrow. This is the kind of music the Irish are expected to hear:
