Ok so if your not up to speed I'll open with this. Cee Lo Green is a vocalist who has worked with people like Danger Mouse. Most people know him from Gnarls Barkley's song "Crazy". Now that we have that out of the way...
This album is amazingly fun. It has this party feel to it thats hard for me to put into words. I guess its the feeling when people listen to pop music and want to dance? This album makes me want to dance. Not that I ever would... but if anything was going to make me dance it would be this. There are a couple R&B staples that exist on the record such as the intro and some of the "skits". None of those things really take away from the album but it would have been an improvement just to have music without the riff raff. One of my favorite properties of the album is the production quality. I'm sure it was made with computers and blah blah, but I never feel like a band isn't playing one of the many well put together songs. Probably the most important thing I can praise this album for is the lack of any rap. I was really impressed I went 4 or 5 songs without hearing one rap verse and even more impressed when I got through the entire thing without it. It says something about the caliber on the vocal work that Cee Lo Green wanted on this album. It really is a good time to had by all.
I was worried about this one. Its not often that I find something that I enjoy in this genre. Cee Lo delivered more than just a great album but in my opinion the best R&B album to come out in 20 years.

This might be one of the most amazing videos I've seen. Its just a band called "Animals As Leaders", but its one of the greatest displays of talent you can find in any genre today. I challenge you to watch the entire thing. You won't do it because your a twat.
I was impressed with some of this content so I thought I would post it. Apparently this girl is the lead in a band called Made out of Babies??? Never heard of them. Shes definitely got a strange style vocally. Music is standard sludge type stuff.
If your not a dork which I'm sure your not you probably have no idea that there is a guy named Brentalfloss who writes lyrics for old video game songs. Well fear not, here is some of his material from his new album.
Ducktales, Tetris, and Dr. Mario are my favorites.
Yeah thats a terrible band name. They released a new single today which is in support of their new album "Outside" being released in like forever. I do kinda dig the song. Its bluesie? I guess? I don't know just listen.
This is some pretty brutal stuff. Think Dillinger but a bit more progressive. I'm digging it for sure. I've listened to the song "Bright Reflections" a couple times now and its a super fun hardcore song.
Never been a huge fan of this band. This songs pretty decent though. Still not a fan of the singing vocals, but its prob the most accessible song of theirs I've heard.
