Backstory

Murdoc grew up in a poor and broken family with only his father, Sebastian Niccals, and his brother, Hannibal Niccals. His father’s influence exposed him to drinking and smoking at an early age, and at school he was already branded as a problem child. At nine years old, he suffered abuse at the hands of a cafeteria worker — something he later described as “the source of his bad mood.”

Forced by his father to perform at small singing talent shows to make money (often spent on alcohol), Murdoc grew resentful of being ordered around. Determined to live life on his own terms, he decided to form a band where no one could control him.

He created several small groups where he was the singer, but none succeeded. His life of reckless behavior escalated until one day he attempted to rob a music store. He crashed his car into the shop and stole instruments before being caught. As part of his punishment, he was ordered to care for Stuart Pot, the store clerk left in a coma after the crash.

Murdoc treated Stuart with little humanity, but one day, while showing off his driving to impress girls, he crashed again — sending Stuart through the windshield and miraculously waking him from his coma. Murdoc nicknamed him “2D” (Two Dents) in reference to his injuries.

Recognizing Stuart’s vocal talent, Murdoc recruited him as the frontman for his new project: Gorillaz. Shortly after, he coerced Russel Hobbs into joining as drummer, and Paula Cracker — 2D’s girlfriend — entered as guitarist. However, Paula soon left after her affair with Murdoc was exposed, an event that caused Russel to break Murdoc’s nose.

Later, Noodle appeared mysteriously, shipped to Kong Studios in a FedEx box, and became the band’s permanent guitarist.

Following the release of the first Gorillaz album, Murdoc was arrested in Tijuana, Mexico, for using forged checks to pay escorts, continuing his long record of reckless behavior.

He treats the band like a dysfunctional family, showing flashes of loyalty beneath his selfishness. Childish, impulsive, and irresponsible, he rarely considers consequences unless forced to. Murdoc despises ridicule and hates when his authority is challenged.
