Gorillaz is a virtual band created in 1998 by Damon Albarn of Britpop band Blur, and Jamie Hewlett, co-creator of the comic book Tank Girl.
The band is composed of four animated band members: 2D, Murdoc, Noodle and Russel. Their style is broadly 'alternative rock', but with a large number of other influences.
The band's first album, 2001's Gorillaz, sold over 6.5 million copies and earned them an entry in the Guinness Book of Records as the Most Successful Virtual Band. It was nominated for the Mercury Prize but the nomination was later withdrawn at the band's request.
Their second studio album, Demon Days, was released in 2005 and included the hit singles "Feel Good Inc.", "DARE", "Dirty Harry" and "Kids With Guns / El Mañana".
Demon Days went five times platinum in the UK, double platinum in the United States and earned five Grammy award nominations for 2006 and won one of them in the Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals category.
