Noodles is a japanese child/robot used in wars i guess, but 2-D bought her to play the eletric guitar in the band. Murdoc loses his soul to a demon to be famous (that's why in some clips, his skin is green, like a dead body). And 2-D's story is a long story with Murdoc. I hope this video can help (I didn't watch yet!!): kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3K7iIVtqtJ5rLs I can't remember the whole story, but these are the strange and paranormal things that the characters of the band have.

no, noodle was used to train in Japan with many other kids, but then they had to kill all the kids except for Noodle. they sent her to the UK in a FedEx package. That’s how 2-D, Murdoc and Russel found her. She was playing the guitar with them untill she “died” and disappeared. Thats how the robot version of her was created. In “Rhinestones eyes” she comes back, they realise that she’s alive and they get rid of the robot, if im not wrong

I was 16 when that track dropped and it became an instant classic for my friends and me. It played everywhere, all the time. What a fucking bomb of a song. I also just realized that Gorillaz and especially this track musically marks the turn of the century/millennium for me. That sound and explicitly the style wasn't possible like two-three years earlier. (Speaking as a German/ European) It ended the height of Eurodance and Techno, 90s rock and other highly consumed genres at that time and led the way for newer incarnations of those genres. While the Gorillaz (Damon Albarn) were clearly heavily influenced by (90s) bands like Massive Attack and Portishead, there was also a coolness-factor attached to the the sound that had only emerged after 2000. You really can't praise Damon Albarn enough for giving that new vibe in town the appropriate music. It's astounding that his (and Blur's) creativity went from (great) songs like "Girls and Boys" or "The Universal" to "Clint Eastwood" only in a matter of a couple of years. Yeah... Thanks again Jovaughn for reacting to this masterpiece! You're absolutely killing it lately! 😎

The entire concept was so well judged, timed and executed. The British tabloids tried to portray it as an artificial sterile thing because of the whole "virtual band" tag which was ridiculous because it's exquisitely well crafted and produced. Then the multi media aspect just takes it to another level entirely and couldn't have been better timed with the transition toward online content consumption. Broke down some walls in regards to "experimental" hip hop too. Between acts like Goillaz and Unkle and some others, the relatively narrow confines of the genre were pushed back for good. And that was just the first single! There's loads of different genres mixed together on the album. I remember people just losing their minds about some British white indie singer working with Dan the automator and Del etc. they just couldn't get their heads around the idea of two such different cultures clashing. They were convinced it was going to be cringe and out of touch and lacking authenticity but clearly that wasn't the case. Hip hop is a lot more liberated these days without having to have words like "crossover" or "experimental" tagged onto it. Interesting trivia: Blur guitarist Graham Coxon was initially friends with artist Jamie Hewlett before Damon and they actually discussed a collaborative project involving music and cartoons so in a way, Graham is deeply rooted in the genesis of Gorillaz.

This band is epic,it is a very deep rabbit hole ,that started in 2000, there are websites, comics, video shorts, documentaries, and TONS of collaborators from Ike Turner, to the clash, to Nene Cherry, celebrity cameos in the videos, have fun, you'll be occupied for weeks 🥰

I know people have commented a lot already, but Daman Albarn from Blur is the main guy, but this album would not have been what it was without Del the Funky Homosapien, who I was listening to in the early 1990's, and who without a doubt is one of the sharpest, most intellectual rappers in the game. Albarn also had two people from Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club, one of the most important New Wave/Art Punk bands of the 1970's and 80's. Demon Days pulled in Danger Mouse, Nenah Cherry and De La Soul. This constant stream of hip hop and Brit Pop talent has allowed them to do some really amazing pieces.

Man i really like your videos! I just came up with a band i want you to react to someday, THE PRODIGY and especially the songs BREATHE and FIRESTARTER. The lyrics they have is repetitive for the modt part but in the 90's this was the jam when it came to RAVEMUSIC 😀👍

They are a 'virtual band' so they only have two regs (including the artist) and everyone else rotates.

Gorillaz as in Guerilla, Hit and run tactics. Write song, get your friends around to record, send to animators. Pretend your a band
