With lead singer Damon Albarn, this badass band is the best. Their songs are absolutely amazing. Damon Albarn was also the singer for Blur, so you know they're good. Kids nowadays are too busy listening to the new garbage to even think about them.
Person: Dude, what the hell are you listening to?
You: It's called "Superfast Jellyfish", by Gorillaz, jackass.

Gorillaz is composed of four fictitious members: 2-D, Murdoc, Russel, and Noodle. They are a dominantly rock band, but most of the singles they release are hip-hop. It was created by Jamie Hewlett of Tank Girl fame, and Damon Albarn of the band Blur. Many talented people are involved in the creation of their music, thus giving it an entirely unique sound. Influenced by everything from reggae to punk to Terry Hall and Darth Vader, the band has once again reached the chart tops with their latest effort, Demon Days. They are the ultimate manufactured pop band.
"Hey man, did you hear that new Gorillaz album?"
"Yeah, I've had O Green World stuck in my head for weeks!"
