Violent Femmes return the favor, covering Gnarls' "Crazy"
Violent Femmes has done unto Gnarls Barkley what Gnarls Barkley did unto them in covering tune “Gone Daddy Gone” on St. Elsewhere. In case you haven’t heard yet (in blog years, this story is 42), the Femmes recently officially released their take on the smash hit “Crazy,” a fitting number for a band that suffered a member-to-member lawsuit last year over a Wendy’s advertisement.... read more

Found in: Music, FeaturesGnarls Barkley releases The Odd Couple three weeks early
It appears Gnarls Barkley has gone all Raconteurs on us. Three weeks before the original release date of April 8, the duo of Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo have decided to release The Odd Couple starting, well, today. “They felt the timing was right to just go for it,” said an unnamed spokesman for the band in a press release this morning. “With the shifting seasons, furtive romantic entanglements and fierce college basketball rivalries, the latter half of March can be confusing. People need to be soothed and inspired now.” Whether this album is capable of “soothing” fans twitterpation this spring,... read more

Prepare yourself. Ten years from now, when VH1 inevitably rolls out an I Love 2006 show (scheduled between Flavor of Love 35 and Scott Baio is 56 ... and a Jaded Father of Four, natch) a geriatric Hal Sparks will wax poetic about how for a particular moment in time, music was taken hostage by the R&B-space-funk of Gnarls Barkley. Cut to a graying Michael Ian Black belting out "They think I'm crrraaaaazzzzzyyyy!!!!!" while Henry Rollins rhapsodizes on the beauty of Cee-Lo Green and Danger Mouse's collaboration. The future, friends, is truly a scary place. But don't get too down... read more

Above: Gnarls in Charge Brian Joseph Burton, aka Danger Mouse, has the new Gnarls Barkley album on his iPod. But since petty theft is generally discouraged, Billboard settled for a listen of a song-that-will-not-be-named from an album-that-will-not-be-named. Described as “an even deeper slice of soul” than anything from the group's 2006 debut St. Elsewhere, the preview song was outfitted with an acoustic melody that stepped back for Cee-Lo’s forceful vocal performance. Burton declined to name or even talk about the track. But he did spill a little about their recording process. “No song is ever done until we have all... read more
