Danger Mouse & James Mercer = Broken Bells

Danger Mouse, aka Brian Burton, and James Mercer of The Shins have teased that they’ve begun work on a new project- temporarily titled Broken Bells. A Sony/Columbia newsletter went out earlier today with some cryptic info, fancy animations, and binary code. Once translated, the code revealed a message- "The high road is hard to find." As reported by Rolling Stone, "Hard to Find" is the title of the duo’s first collaborative single.

If clicked on, the ad redirects to www.ebbelkslorn.com (a clever anagram of Broken Bells) where a silhouette of Mercer and Burton is shown. If refreshed a few times, the site reveals snippets from the album. Little information is given regarding the release, but expect more viral messages to come.
