So we've gained TV on the Radio and DFA1979, and we've lost Gorillaz, LCD Soundsystem, and White Stripes. Seems about balanced.

Yeah, I didn't hear about this either. I just googled "Gorillaz break-up" and didn't see any information. There's no mention of it on their official website, either. I don't understand how a virtual band that's just a guise for Damon Albarn could "break-up" anyway.

They say things come in three’s and here’s more evidence to support that theory. On the heels of The White Stripes and LCD Soundsystem‘s respective break-ups, People reports that the Damon Albarn-led Gorillaz have also called it quits.
According to the report, the Gorillaz 2010 world tour became “dogged with angry rows” and shortly after the band’s final performance, Albarn and his Gorillaz cohort, Jamie Hewlett, had a “massive argument” that “basically ended things.” Apparently, “things haven’t been great for a while, between Albarn and Hewlett, with Hewlett said to be frustrated at ‘how much time Albarn was giving to his many other projects’ and Albarn was ‘less than impressed with Jamie’s party lifestyle.’”
If the thing reads like a tabloid piece, it’s because it is. That said, the news does come just weeks after Albarn delivered a lengthy speech during the band’s final scheduled concert in which he told the audience that this may be the final time the collective performs together. Currently, Albarn is said to be working with his other acclaimed outfit, Blur, as well as on an opera.

LCD Soundsystem are supposedly going out with a bang with a 3 hour long concert/career retrospective at Madison Square Garden...

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd trust everything I read in People Magazine, of all things. It sounds to me more like they're going on hiatus rather than splitting up, if anything at all.
