Their style is a composition of multiple musical genres, with a large number of their influences including: dub, hip hop, alternative rock, electronic and pop music.

The music is a collaboration between various musicians, Albarn being the only permanent musical contributor. The 'virtual band' is composed of four animated members: 2D (lead vocalist, keyboard), Murdoc Niccals (bass guitar), Noodle (guitar and occasional vocals) and Russel Hobbs (drums and percussion). In the mainstream and commercial outlets it is known as a 'virtual band' because for their image and promotion, instead of displaying the musicians of the band, it has used a group of comic book characters. Gorillaz is a musical project created in 1998 by Damon Albarn of Britpop band Blur and British cartoonist Jamie Hewlett, co-creator of the comic book Tank Girl.
