Gnarls Barkley Return With Dreamy ‘Pictures’ From First Album in 18 Years, ‘Atlanta’

Danger Mouse and CeeLo Green will release their third, and final, album on March 6.

Gnarls Barkley is back after an 18-year hiatus. On Thursday morning (Feb. 26), the Grammy-winning duo comprised of singer CeeLo Green and producer Danger Mouse released their first single from what they say is their third and final album, Atlanta, the dreamy pop tune “Pictures.”

The song is a memory experiment by singer Green, who reminisces about his childhood days whiling away the hours on Atlanta’s MARTA transit line, staring out the window and watching the world go by. “Looks like motion pictures/ Staring out the window of the MARTA train/ On an adventure/ Then back home again/ Looks just like pictures,” Green croons in his signature falsetto over DM’s simple, hypnotic organ and spare drum beat backing. “Staring out the window of the MARTA train/ It’s an adventure/ Till I make it back home again.”
