    gorillazBeing a member of a cartoon band is a gig a lot of flesh-and-blood musicians would kill for -- there are no interviews, obligations or other banal realities of stardom to worry about.

    In that spirit, Gorillaz are prepping for the release of their new album, 'Plastic Beach,' with a promotional video that's firmly set within their fictional universe. In this clip, simply titled 'Murdoc,' the animated bassist sets off on his journey to Plastic Beach with some cash and champagne. Unfortunately, an unnamed nemesis has other plans. Check out the video after the jump.

    Short & Sweet. Love it. Hope we get more little clips of Murdoc's escape to Plastic Beach in the future. Nice to see Murdoc is still his old slimy self.
