I've only heard this very recently, but am completely obsessed with this song atm. The group is called called Broken Bells, and they just released this, their first single, late last month. A collaboration between super-producer Danger Mouse and former vocalist/guitarist of the Shins, James Mercer. To me this song sounds like the sum of its parts, with catchy indie rock and a great chorus mixed well with a lot of production tricks and effects. The verse might have something to do with my obsession as well, as the way he sings it sounds very familiar, just something I can't quite put my finger on.
The full length album will be released on March 10th.
