Why do we like this?

American indie rock band Broken Bells are back after a couple years on hiatus.  

A few weeks ago, the word on the street was that the band was gearing up to release their second studio album called After The Disco some time in January 2014. Today, they're officially back with their first single called "Hanging On For Life."

If this song is an indicator of what the rest of the album will be like, then we are all in for a massive treat. "Hanging On For Life" starts off with some wobbly eerie synths, but then the classic Broken Bells sound of the strumming acoustic guitar slides in and sets the tone for an amazing Broken Bell track.

You can pre-order After The Disco on November 5, 2013.  Check the bands website for more info.
