Gnarls Barkley




Gnarls Barkley is, what one can only hope, the new sound of hip-hop. This band is a combination of Dangermouse aka Brian Burton and Cee-Lo, a member of Goodie Mob. Both known members claim they are not actually the main act, and a lot of the collaboration is hidden in rumours. They are said to have started in Atlanta, but don't visit the actual site www.gnarlsbarkley.com
of Gnarls Barkley or you'll end up in a tailspin. All one can really tell is that the album is similar to the style of blended hip-hop and rock that the band Gorillaz puts out it almost seems effortlessly.
The single most known from this album is "Crazy", which is particularly catchy. Also the covering of the Violent Femmes on "Gone Daddy Gone" is quite tasteful and most likely an homage. If you're wanting to experience the newest explosion in the hip-hop media, definitely check out the new Gnarls Barkley CD today.
