The latest multimedia visual story continues the storyline started in “The Book of Noodle” and “The Book of Russell”.
In the lead up to their new album, Gorillaz have unveiled multimedia stories recapping the recent events of the virtual band’s central characters in The Book of Noodle and The Book of Russel. Now, they’ve done the same for Murdoc.

Following the events of Plastic Beach (Phase 3), Gorillaz's leader was captured and forced to write a new album. In The Book of Murdoc, we learn that Gorillaz’s fearless leader escaped Plastic Beach in a rusty brown submarine. His lone companion was Cyborg Noodle. After running out of booze, Murdoc was forced to surface the submarine only to quickly encounter the Battleship Ringo, owned by EMI Records.
Watch the story unfold below.
