Gorillaz headcanon #8
Russel was the only band member capable of cooking anything beyond microwavable meals during phase 1. Murdoc would cook up unholy abominations whenever he tried and 2D was banned from using stoves (they're lucky he never burnt the kitchen down). Noodle couldn't even reach the stove (which didn't stop her from trying).
It worked out, though. Russel is great at cooking. It's a hobby that was passed down to him by his mother. He'd always been a momma's boy; he knows all her recipes and keeps them top secret. You're not getting them out of him, no matter what.
#gorillaz#gorillaz headcanons#russel hobbs#gorillaz phase 1#whenever russ wasnt around to cook the band would be in shambles lol

Murdoc can play bass with his tongue. It's long enough so that it's not as bad as it sounds..........

Russel used to be really nervous about performing on stage when the band was starting out. He was perfectly fine during practice with the band and didn't think he'd have as much trouble in front of crowds, but it's always different once you get into the mix. Lucky for him, Del served as his hype man, boosting his confidence before shows with a pep talk. He was able to work through his anxiety thanks to Del. Del's pre-show encouragement sticks with him even now.

I got my hands on a copy of Rise of the Ogre and it's been a blast reading through it. I wasn't there to see the band's golden age, but having access to all the band's older projects is so. AAAGH. It makes me miss a time I never even experienced. They put so much effort into projects aside from the albums (G-bitez, numerous interviews, their website, etc). I can't help but wish they'd do more for the characters nowadays. Maybe it's a bit selfish idk but MAN I ****know**** they could be doing so many creative things, just like they used to. Tons and tons of potential that seemed to dwindle after Plastic Beach bombed. In short I would love to see Gorillaz regain their confidence and come back with expansions on their characters and lore and stuff..... hire me please Gorillaz .....
#gorillaz#rant? kind of#im just nostalgic#i know the band's pretty and maybe thats why there's not so much put into it nowadays#but i know there r a ton of people interested in preserving and continuing the band's legacy#i think rn would be a great time for a creative comeback#they could get back on their feet if they tried

Murdoc is half Mexican on his mother's side. That's why he ends up there by coincidence or choice, like something drawing him in. We all know he can't speak Spanish for shit though
#as a Mexican#this one is particularly self-indulgent#I THINK i heard something about Murdoc being written as Mexican before his character was established but was changed to not be stereotypey#if damon n jamie had someone to consult about it something coulda been worked out#Anyway took a break but im back with the hcs#gorillaz#murdoc niccals#gorillaz headcanons

2D is actually pretty good at videogames, especially retro, 8-bit ones or if they have anything to do with zombies.
we know he has a penchant for zombie movies. I like to think of zombies as a very particular interest of his.

Under better circumstances, where Noodle and Cyborg Noodle had the chance to interact, they would have developed a familial bond. Not a simple one, definitely complicated, especially during/immediately after the Plastic Beach era.
I can't even imagine being Noodle, having just evaded being killed to rescue Murdoc (from the consequences of his actions) and then, like- finding out he cloned her because he wanted to *replace* her.
And I can't imagine that Cyborg Noodle would be happy coming face to face with the person she was made to replace. She knew she was nothing more than that, a stand-in. There's no way Murdoc didn't rub that in when he was drunk or something.
Cyborg and Noodle look almost the same, but they're completely opposite people. Noodle has confidence, she's good at everything she does, and is naturally charismatic. Cyborg is cold, scary, closed off, hates socializing, isn't particularly good at things that don't involve violence or music and is completely mute as a result of not having an actual voice.
And taking all of this into account, I think Noodle would see a lot of herself in Cyborg. Someone, *something* engineered to fight. She can see how there's no light in Cyborg's eyes, she can see her anger. It wasn't Cyborg's choice to pop into existence.
Cyborg would definitely push back plenty in the beginning, but would eventually let Noodle teach her about living for herself and gaining her own interests and hopes, etc. Noodle would basically take Cyborg under her wing as an older sister figure.
#also they would probably bond over their strained relationship to Murdoc after the PB stuff blows over#i loveeeeeee cyborg i wish they used her moreeeee#they give me real sonic and metal sonic vibes lmao#gorillaz#gorillaz headcanons#noodle gorillaz#cyborg noodle#murdoc niccals

yoo, fav gorillaz song?? :3
I'm not sure how many other people agree, but my favorite song is probably Do Ya Thing. The 13 minute version.
It's weird, catchy, half-improv, has a goofy instrumental- You can tell it's a song they had a lot of fun with and to me it reflects the time it was made in. It's a shame converse kinda tied it down tho
#gorillaz#gorillaz asks#the rhymessss they r so good#overall its a really unique song and its close to my heart#i hate picking gorillaz songs BUT i had to rep for this one
