Review by Souparna Chakraborty

Ghost Train Lil Dub Chefin’ – Gorillaz’s Forgotten Brazilian Gem (2002) Alright, buckle up, because we’re diving into Ghost Train Lil Dub Chefin’, an album that sounds like it was named after a haunted locomotive and a tiny chef who only cooks basslines. Released in 2002 by the ever-eccentric Gorillaz, this little-known project from Brazil is a wild mashup of dub and hip-hop vibes, courtesy of EMI. It’s not their biggest hit, but hey, sometimes the underdog deserves a shoutout. First off, let’s talk about “Lil’ Dub Chefin’.” This track feels like you’ve accidentally wandered into a smoky underground club where everyone’s wearing neon bucket hats and nodding rhythmically to beats that could hypnotize a goldfish. The bassline? Fat. Like, Thanksgiving turkey-level fat. It wobbles around your ears like it owns the place, while faint echoes of vocals whisper just enough to keep things mysterious. Honestly, I remember this one because it’s impossible not to bob your head to it. You try sitting still—it won’t happen. Your body just gives up and starts grooving against its will. Then there’s “Ghost Train,” which is basically what happens when a spooky carnival ride hooks up with a drum machine at a rave. There’s something delightfully eerie about the way the synths creep in, like they’re sneaking up on you with bad intentions—but good vibes. It’s moody yet playful, kind of like that one friend who tells ghost stories but keeps adding ridiculous puns to ruin the tension. By the time the beat drops, you’re already sold. It’s the perfect soundtrack for late-night drives through empty streets or pretending you’re starring in a low-budget sci-fi movie. So yeah, Ghost Train Lil Dub Chefin’ isn’t gonna blow your mind like some of Gorillaz’s bigger albums, but it’s got charm. And honestly? Charm counts for a lot. These tracks stick with you because they don’t take themselves too seriously—just like life should be. Final thought: If this album were a person, it’d probably be that quirky uncle who shows up uninvited to family BBQs with a ukulele and a bag of suspiciously strong punch. Weird? Sure. But also kinda unforgettable.
