Here at Enter The Shell, we’ve covered a couple of artists who decided to break out of the constraints of being in a group or band and venturing out on their own, like Raphael Saadiq (of Tony! Toni! Tone!) and Amanda Palmer (of the Dresden Dolls). Well, we’re about to do it again with Julian Casablancas, lead singer of the popular New York band, The Strokes.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :: "It’s Blitz!"

drmanhattan :: "drmanhattan"
drmanhattan made such an impression with their catchy tunes and wild stage-presence that they were very soon added to my collection. Hopefully, they’ll make their way into yours as well.
