If you come across Broken Bells' vision on internet, you won't miss it. Because the original artwork and tunes are so captivating that it makes me remember how important an album cover is to get first attention. I prefer to read about the band later! And it is Shins frontman James Mercer's new project which is quite impressive as The Shins' albums. Look at the cover! It seems that they've created a different planet which is not for masculine. As for the music, it's quite eclectic form of music, not easy to categorize, most preferred style for critics. Album opener "The High Road" becomes the first single, and if you go their home page you can stream this song.
"Broken Bells" is already placed in my albums of 2010 list. Very nice! Expect James Mercer's vocals, it's quite something else, separating itself from his previous bands and music. Welcome to the Indie Rock Cabaret! 8/10
highlights: The High Road, The Ghost Inside, Sailing to Nowhere, The Waiting Game
stream: Broken Bells - The High Road
The album in stores on March 9, 2010.
