The Odd Couple – Gnarls BarkleyView More By Gnarls Barkley Our ReviewThe odd couple here isn’t the pairing of producer Danger Mouse and his soul singing sidekick Cee-Lo; they work together in perfect concert. No, it’s the yin-yang of retro-futuristic grooves keeping things in flux and in question that’s the odd coupling maintaining Gnarls Barkley as an intriguing enterprise. The duo can never recreate the element of surprise that ignited their debut 2006’s St. Elsewhere, but they do apply an accomplished level of craft and knowing musical cues to their eclectic mixes. “Who’s Going to Save My Soul” evokes the early-‘70s Philly soul that comes with such a title. But “Going On” and “A Little Better” traverse the galaxies, tapping into space with kinetic beats that slow as they ground to earth. The album’s first single, “Run (I’m a Natural Disaster),” steps up the beats per minute to elicit an extra burst of excitement but the sedately-paced “Would-Be Killer” and “Open Book” are every bit as alluring and satisfying. Throw in the ‘60s pop undertow of “Whatever,” “Surprise” and “Blind Mary” and it’s clear Gnarls Barkley are interested in spanning history as much as writing a new chapter.. Customer ReviewsFantastic (5 stars)Reading the negative reviews of this CD makes me want to hurt myself. There is no basis for the negative argument besides the fact that the song 'Crazy' isn't on here. The reason people have such a hard time with artists like Gnarls - is that they are endlessly confused when their new music comes out because it sounds so different from their previous CD - the reason is, is because with artists like Gnarls - they are constantly reinventing th Truly An Odd Pairing (5 stars) When Gnarls Barkley came on to the scene with their smash hit Crazy, no one could get enough of their fresh, new sound. Everyone wanted to describe them by making a comparison to someone else, but they couldn't. That is because the combination of Cee-lo and Danger Mouse creates something indescribeable. It combines so many genres that no one is sure what to call it- except great music. Gnarls's debut album, despite a couple solid singles Ceelo and Danger Mouse are the Masters of Music (5 stars) The super hot duo Gnarls Barkley come out with another great album. They're songs range from dark and disturbed to sexy dance pop. The are the most excitable and versatile group in music now. Save some room on the shelf for awards boys because it is another masterpiece. If you love their first album entirely, buy the album you won't regret it. If you love their dance pop beats listen to run. You'll love. For my goths check out who's gonn BiographyFormed: 2003Genre: Alternative Years Active: '00s, '10s The Gnarls Barkley collaboration didn't bring producer Danger Mouse to the top of the British charts for the first time, but it did mark his debut as the pilot of a hit record. Mouse, born Brian Burton, first gained the ears of discriminating listeners when he concocted The Grey Album, a bootleg that mashed the vocals from The Black Album by Jay-Z with music samples courtesy of The White Album by EMI flagship the Beatles. Although the label posted a cease-and-desist order, one of their employees,...
