Good news music lovers!

Gnarls Barkley is back in action and I, for one, am stoked!

Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse have a new release coming in April to follow-up the amazing St. Elsewhere album.

According to Rolling Stone, the album is said to be full of “retro-soul shakedowns, tricked-out psychedelic rock and trunk-rattling hip-hop.”

The track being considered for their first single is described as “a funked-up organ groove complemented by French horns, a chorus of ‘la la la’s and Cee-Lo crooning in his throaty rasp, ‘Here it comes/Say it loud!’”

Another track, reportedly the duo’s favorite, sounds like “a sinister ballad featuring intricately strummed acoustic guitar chords. Cee-Lo’s mood turns dark as he repeats over and over, ‘Who’s gonna save my soul?/I know I’m out of control.’ The song is supposedly a stylish, spooky take on Robert Johnson’s delta blues.”

Goodness grief! I cannot wait for this album!
