Gnarls Barkley Announce More Shows

With their debut LP St. Elsewhere continuing to find crazy (sorry!) success on the Billboard charts, reaching #14 on the Top 200 and #1 on Top Electronic Albums (it's an electronic album?!), Gnarls Barkley's gotta be feeling rather saint-like these days. "My message is being embraced by the world," said Gnarls in a recent press release, "and I could not be happier." Glad to hear it, even if you're not a real person.


Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo just announced some additional summer tour dates, including stops in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and sunny Baltimore, in between appearances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, and, like, every single European festival. Are they going to continue wearing different outfits at every show? That's gonna get expensive.

In the UK, where the "Crazy" single was so popular it was deleted after nine weeks at number one, Gnarls will unleash the single for "Smiley Faces" on July 17. On June 12, Gnarls Barkley bring their jams to "The Tonight Show." And you can watch their Star Wars-inspired performance on the MTV Movie Awards on reruns all weekend. Or you can watch this here clip of them doing "Crazy" on England's "Top of the Pops" in April. It rules.

is it really weird i want to bang ceelo? :/

I like the music, but fucking hate the name. Like some kind of awful pun which never came close to working. I don't quite know why, but few names of musical acts have ever made me cringe as much as "Gnarls Barkley".

that fucking "crazy" song or whatever its called makes me want to punch the tv.

no ny?
