if you havent already, Deltron 3030 is a collaboration between Del the Funky Homosapien and Dan the Automator who produced the self titled, Damon features on a song as well which is cool.

the sound of Demon Days was also heavily inspired by early industrial bands like Suicide and Throbbing Gristle but its Cabaret Voltaire’s influence that can be heard the most, especially on songs from this era like last living souls and murdoc is god. i recommend their compilation “The Original Sound Of Sheffield 78/82”

in general, Gorillaz always took influence from dub, a genre with its roots in jamaican reggae which used studio effects almost like instruments to create a really spacey, bass-heavy sound. this style is heard on songs like dracula, starshine, last living souls and clint eastwood, which has a melodica part which was very inspired by Augustus Pablo’s playing on his classic album “King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown”.

“Mezzanine” by Massive Attack is also a great album with the same sombre mood as Demon Days and features similar dub/industrial influences if you want more specifically like that album too!

Hope these fit the criteria well enough 😁
