Alternative Tuesday


"The High Road"-- Broken Bells

The Shins make great music. Danger Mouse makes great music. You can imagine my excitement last year when The Shins' front man James Mercer and the mastermind behind projects like Gnarls Barkley and The Grey Album announced the formation of their band , Broken Bells. The product of their collaboration did not disappoint. They put up a live stream of the album on NPR's website the week before the album was officially released. My browser never left NPR's page until I had my own copy of the album. Enjoy the fruits of their labor, and consider picking up one of the very best albums from last year.
