The result was an animated band consisting of fictional members and live shows that dazzled with their spectacular and imaginative stage setup.
Since they emerged in 1998 they have released three studio albums and a range of singles that have become hugely popular in the British music charts and press. Of particular note is the admiration their tracks have shown for the actor Clint Eastwood for songs like “Clint Eastwood” and “Dirty Harry”, with the former featuring a melody that echoes the actor’s movie “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”. Other songs include “Feel Good Inc”, “Kids with Guns”, “El Mañana”, “Rock the House”, “Stylo” and “Superfast Jellyfish”.
But the band is as famous for its animated members as well as its hit singles, with Gorrilaz boasting a line up including 2D, the vocalist and keyboardist; Murdoc Niccals, the bass guitarist; Russel Hobbs, the drummer and Noodle, the guitarist and vocalist. When fans witness them live they experience music from Damon Albarn and the cartoon graphics of Jamie Hewlett, making it a truly unique experience and as such getting hold of Gorillaz tickets is a necessity.
Gorillaz’ first album took the form of their 2001 self titled release “Gorillaz”, which saw them dominate the charts with singles like “19-2000”. It sold millions of copies around the world and saw them entered into the Guinness Book of World Records for most successful virtual band. They then released “Demon Day” in 2005, another success story that earned them praise, a Grammy Award nomination and the honour of going five times platinum in the United Kingdom. Then, with the new decade upon us, they released “Plastic Beach” in 2010, an album that has placed them back firmly in the music scene where their domination of the charts continues. They have continued to earn critical acclaim with their latest album and as a result it is certain that their live shows will see an influx of people eager to witness the proceedings.
With festival appearances around the world under their belt, concerts on some world famous stages and appearances on popular television programmes, Gorillaz are certain to be a popular group for years to come. There are no other bands like this one and when they take to the stage you know that you are definitely in for one hell of a show. It means that getting hold of Gorillaz tickets is a must when they go on sale, for they give fans the opportunity to witness a show they are unlikely to ever forget.
