Broken Bells

[Acebot44]

I was listening to NPR earlier today and this song came on the radio...Broken Bells is made up of The Shins' lead singer James Mercer and DJ Danger Mouse.

Obtained the album earlier today and am giving it a listen to as I type this.

[Krypton]

i had heard about the two coming together off of an indie/hip-hop blog. i found it to be quite the interesting match up. i haven't heard much of them except two songs that i happened to scrounge up, but what i had heard i thought was pretty good.

[BlueFire]

They're great. My favorite track is "The Ghost Inside"

[Typhoid]

I hope they do this for a while, and it's not just a once-off sort of thing.

[Fox 6]

I got this today, about to give it a listen

[Fox 6]

I like what im hearing, a lot.

My favourite track is "Vaporize"

[KillerGremlin]

Mercer has an enchanting voice....one of my favorites.

[Fox 6]

This album keep growing on me. Loooooooove it.

[TheSlyMoogle]

Heard the song on VH1 this morning during their AM drive or whatever it's called now.

Danger Mouse collaborated with Sparklehorse prior to this album and that effort is also worth checking out (and RIP Mark Linkous).
