Mr. Gnome

Mr. Gnome (stylized as mr. Gnome) is an alternative art rock married duo from Cleveland, Ohio.[1] Their eclectic oeuvre has been characterized as "an arresting mix of menace and mellifluousness," and "intriguing, theatrical."[2] Nicole Barille notes of their stand-alone song Let The City Sail Away that as with many of her lyrics, "I tend to write about situations that are moments away from impending disaster."[3] Mentioned in Rolling Stone in 2011 as a band to watch,[4] their fourth and latest album, The Heart of a Dark Star, was reviewed by NPR as being "a satisfying, conceptually ambitious work," "a raw, romantic sound [which they have] expanded and refined over several records."[5]

gollark: But if we allowed *any* language, you'd somewhat lock people out if they did not know *one* of them.
gollark: Yes it is. If we used different languages it would probably not work very well.
gollark: What isn't needed?
gollark: It has to be something and it's a lowest common denominator.
gollark: Approximate and heavily biased summary: palaiologos suddenly demanded that all (future?) events not require specifically Python after being annoyed by HelloBoi's event somehow, and ubq shut down the code guessing event and left.
