LISTENING AND LOVING: BROKEN BELLS



As a long time fan of The Shins, i'm talking before Garden State (even though it's pretty much one of my top 5 movies), I was eagerly awaiting something new from them. Instead, I hear tale they have basically disbanded. BUT, all is not lost. James Mercer, the lead singer of The Shins, has paired with Danger Mouse and produced musical magic. So you get the quirky depth of The Shins mixed with the rollicking and inventive beats of Danger Mouse. It's win, win so check it out. Not to mention, I'm a little mesmerized by the cover art.

oh and Happy Friday!

  5. Totally just discovered Broken Bells. I love them. So much.

    Also, learn from me and do not go to youtube and search Broken Balls. Because you'll get totally jacked up stuff.
