List of BPMs of Gorillaz tracks

This is a list of the tempo in BPM (beats per minute) of selected Gorillaz tracks. They have been measured manually and should be considered to have a margin of error of 2 bpm either way.

It will be seen that many Gorillaz tracks have a relatively slow tempo characteristic of hip hop, although the average BPMs have been increasing over time. Damon Albarn has said he intends to impose a lower limit of 125 bpm for the next album, though of course he may not stick to that.
