Gorillaz are a British virtual band created in 1998 by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett. The band consists of four animated members: 2D (lead vocals, keyboard), Murdoc Niccals (bass guitar, vocals), Noodle (guitar, keyboard, and backing vocals) and Russel Hobbs (drums and percussion). These members are completely fictional and are not personas of any "real life" musicians involved in the project.[5] Their fictional universe is explored through the band's website and music videos, as well as a number of other media, such as short cartoons. In reality, Albarn is the only permanent musical contributor, and the music is often a collaboration between various musicians. Writers and critics have described their music as alternative rock,[1] Britpop,[6] trip hop,[7][8] hip hop,[9] electronica, indie, dub, reggae and pop.[10][11]
The band's 2001 debut album Gorillaz sold over seven million copies and earned them an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records as the Most Successful Virtual Band.[12] It was nominated for the Mercury Prize in 2001, but the nomination was later withdrawn at the band's request.[13] Their second studio album, Demon Days, released in 2005, went five times platinum in the UK.[14] double platinum in the US,[15][16][17] The band has won other awards, including one Grammy Award, two MTV Video Music Awards, an NME Award, three MTV Europe Music Awards, and have been nominated for nine Brit Awards.[18][19] The combined sales of the Gorillaz and Demon Days albums had exceeded 15 million by 2007.[20] The band's third studio album, Plastic Beach, was released in March 2010. Their latest album, The Fall, was released in December 2010 as a free download for fan club members, then in April 2011 as a physical release. Gorillaz plan to release new material in 2017.[21]

Gorillaz have definitely developed quite a spaz/autistic fanbase nowadays, I guess people like that find it easier to empathise with cartoon characters than real people.
Which leads me to thinking - were I to create a 'Now That's What I Call Autism' compliation (or playlist as the kids say nowadays), what would be on it? Some initial thoughts below:
Obviously some anime / computer game soundtrack stuff - any suggestions welcome as I don't give a fuck about either.
I'm guessing people like that probably like power metal? Dragons and shit probably appeal. Dragonforce maybe?
I remember years ago seeing some bunch of cunts who pretend to be like steampunk robot mimes or some shit, and it was literally the most spastic thing ever. They played like easy listening stuff, was just so creepy and odd and target-marketed to the socially inept. Have no idea what they were called, but they would be on it.
What else?
