They did “The High Road” for David Letterman on Tuesday, but last night’s performance on Late Night was more exciting, because you got to hear James Mercer stretch his falsetto muscles. Both “The High Road” and “The Ghost Inside” amble along at mid-tempo, but the latter has better points of interest: multiple keyboard hooks, drum machines, trumpet, etc. Last night’s guests were Michael Moore and comedian/Nerdist Chris Hardwick, who pretended to make-out (?) during Broken Bells’ intro. They must have enjoyed it though: Hardwick took a photo of the band from Fallon’s desk, and Moore strolled up for a Mercer handshake.
Broken Bells’ self-titled album is out now via Sony.

This just changed my life
This is like a super group of all the most boring people from their respective bands.
SNORE
best song on the album, and I think this version is better.
Awesome performance – really glad they decided to mix it up with this song. Just saw this contest promotion through recordstoreday.com… Broken Bells is giving the winner an expenses-paid trip to see the band. Check it out here: http://recordstoreday.com/Contest/337
that wasn’t at all interesting.
Yo there’s a cool Broken Bells promotion going on in alliance with Record Store day this year. You could win a rip to see them live, also they have a sick Bonus Deluxe Pack coming out. Check it http://recordstoreday.com/Contest/337
That’s the first time I’ve ever seen drum-synching. Yawn.
That’s some boring shit.
