Is the new Gnarls Barkley worth my time?

So I guess they pushed up the Release Date to today.....

"Yeah, so you know that Gnarls Barkley album that was supposed to drop April 8? Well, it dropped today. The label decided to push it up three weeks after it leaked early. I guess it's funny to see music industry people thinking on their feet, instead of sitting around with their thumbs up their asses for two weeks while the album spreads across the globe. Of course it's still too late. The damage has already been done. If they wanted to nip the leak in the bud, they should've dropped it the day after it hit the internet."

Is it any good?

They pushed up the internet store release to today (Amazon, ITunes, etc) but as far as I know, the retail CD comes out next Tuesday the 25th.

Don't directly compare it to St. Elsewhere because this is a bit darker. There's nothing as immediately brilliant as "Crazy" on The Odd Couple, but given some time to digest, it may end up being the better album.

Songs on repeat: "Going On," "Run," "No Time Soon," "Who's Gonna Save My Soul," "Surprise," "Open Book"

Wackness. I don't understand how people like Gnarls Barkley.-Halftime-

Because it's actually creative and different sounding than anything else that's currently popular. People who don't like music like Gnarls I wonder if they ever listen to anything but rap.

Well, I listen to rock, alternative, soul, & some jazz along with rap, and I still think Gnarls Barkely is wack.

Nice try at what? I wasn't doing anything with that last comment but to illicit more of an actual explanation. When discussing a group or album, if all I get from a non-rap related album in a rap forum is "wackness," that's the first thing that pops into my head.
