Biography

Conceived as the first "virtual hip-hop group," Gorillaz blended the musical talents of Blur's Damon Albarn and a changing cast of associates, as well as the visuals of Jamie Hewlett, best known as the creator of the cult comic Tank Girl. The group, as it was presented, included 2-D, Murdoc, Russel, and Noodle. The group's website, www.gorillaz.com, showcased Hewlett's visuals and the group's music in eye- and ear-catching detail. Their self-titled debut in 2001 was a massive world-wide success and achieved platinum-level sales in the U.S. For 2005's Demon Days, Albarn turned to Danger Mouse, the DJ behind The Grey Album, and a host of new collaborators. ~ Heather Phares
