Broken Bells - Broken Bells

Every time Dangermouse releases something I assume I am not going to enjoy it. It will be too commercial or too pandering to the wide audiences that he's managed to reach. Every time I am wrong. James Mercer's vocals are among my favorite in the realm of the indie circuit and the music is a perfect mix of languid and upbeat - lots of great electronic sounds mixed amongst the melancholy singing. I've been wanting a new Shins record for awhile but, having heard this, I don't think I need one... this is a perfectly natural progression and a welcome one.
