S.Backer Music Movement

Genre: Indie rock
Released: March 9, 2010

Broken Bells is the self-titled debut album from James Mercer of "The Shins" and Danger Mouse of "Gnarls Barkley". I was surprised to see very little hype about this album. One would think that when two members of well known music acts come together people would be talking about it. Really the only news i heard surrounding this album was that after James Mercer finished with this album, he would go back into the studio with "The Shins". I will start off by saying i rather liked this album but it is far from amazing or best thing since sliced bread. What it is, is a good starting point for the band to grow with. The album had many bright moments, but not a cd you will listen to from start to finish every time. Thus leading me to believe their next album (if there is one) could be something very special.
