BEAUTY & THE GEEKSTHEY'RE named after a "Star Wars" space sta tion, sound like some thing "a Hobbit might make on a rainy day," and look like the children from the "Village of the Damned." They're Eisley, a family quintet who are a little too pretty, a little too...

Single Minded: Flo Rida, The Hush Sound, Lyrics Born, The Matches Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more. Flo Rida, “American Superstar” [MySpace] Not nearly as good as Ken Tucky. She & Him, “Sentimental Heart” [MySpace] Zooey Deschanel teams with indie-folk singer-songwriter M. Ward for a record of cruising AM radio pop. The label was originally hoping for Ellen Page and Ryan Adams, but both backed out due to “other commitments.” Lyrics Born, “Hot 2 Deff” [Hype Machine] The latest from nimble indie rapper is titled Everywhere At Once — a veiled reference to that damned Flo Rida song. The Hush Sound, “Honey” [MySpace] Chicago quartet makes stately, ornamented pop perfect to accompany those long, long nights at South Pacific rehearsal after school. The Matches, “Wake the Sun” [Hype Machine] When their new album leaked, California rock band the Matches suggested that everyone who downloaded it donate to a charity. They humbly recommend a charity called “Keep the Matches Employed.”

Gnarls Barkley Stage a Soul Revival at First “Odd Couple” Show It’s been a while since we’ve seen Gnarls Barkley frontman Cee-Lo Green. “As you can see,” he said from stage at New York City’s Highline Ballroom last night, “I’ve grown a full head of beautiful hair!” Onmi-pop duo Gnarls Barkley played their first show in support of just-released second album The Odd Couple, and yeah, first things first: Cee-Lo rocked a huge pompadour and clutched what looked like a vintage Shure, leading his six-piece crew (including producer Danger Mouse) as the howling frontman of a puffy-shirted soul band — maybe the kind that would play a bar mitzvah or the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance in Back to the Future. Together they previewed the set they’ll presumably be bringing out to the festival circuit this summer when they hit Lollapalooza, the KCRW World Festival and probably a couple others. (Check out photos from the show here.) It was a night of working out kinks — opener Santogold smiled and joked through her technical problems and her issues with remembering stage props. But when she hit the growling synths of “Creator,” everyone freaked out anyway, whether they knew her as the next rising kitchen-sink popster or just “Santowho?” she definitely made an impression. Apologizing up front for their own tech glitches, there were ostensibly problems with Gnarls Barkley’s earpiece monitors, what appeared to be an unplugged Moog, some ill-placed stage banter and a little lag-time when the five-blue-jacketed multi-instrumentalists approximated Mr. Danger Mouse’s kitschpunk productions by hectically switching from glock to upright bass to whatever — but damned if we noticed or cared. Since the Barkley band was scrambling around the stage like busy chemists searching for an antidote, it only created a unique tension that made everything more human and fun. Opening with “Charity Case,” the band rumbled through material off The Odd Couple, including “Surprise,” “Going On” and “Whatever.” When they hit “Run,” Cee-Lo embodied the Little Richard

Photo Gallery: The Police From the Inside Our informal assessment: On top of being guitarist for the Police, a former member of the Animals and a surprisingly good writer, Andy Summers is also a pretty damned talented photographer. We caught up with Summers at New York’s Milk Gallery yesterday, where his photo exhibit “I’ll Be Watching You: Inside The Police 1980-1983″ — featuring lots of disarming black-and-white shots of the band at rest and backstage — is being displayed. When the Police reformed earlier this year for a world tour Summers brought his camera along for the ride, which may lead to a second collection. Click here to see a selection of shots from the exhibit, along with commentary from Summers himself.

Pete Wentz joins ex-Chiodos man’s new bandAfter announcing their hiatus in October, it seems the members of Fall Out Boy are wasting no time in getting started on new projects. While guitarist Joe Trohman and drummer Andy Hurley have teamed up with Every Time I Die frontman Keith Buckley and Anthrax guitarists Scott Ian and Rob Caggiano for a heavy metal side-project called The Damned Things, it seems Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz is also pimping himself out and is reportedly collaborating with ex-Chiodos frontman Craig Owens.

IRAQ WAR OFF-KILTER FOR FILTERALMOST 40 years ago, Edwin Starr asked, "War - what is it good for?" Judging from a survey of albums and songs that've been released this year, one thing's for sure: It's good for songwriting.In the last few months, we've seen albums presenting the war from the point of view of soldiers (Black 47's "Iraq" album), anti-war tracks (Sheryl Crow's "God Bless This Mess") and tributes to dead soldiers (Tim McGraw's "If You're Reading This") and the National Guard (3 Doors Down's "Citizen Soldier"). There's also the soundtrack to "Body of War," a documentary about an Iraq war vet, with "No More," a new Eddie Vedder song.The latest musician taking a look at the realities of war is Richard Patrick, the mastermind behind the industrial/alt-rock band Filter."Anthems for the Damned" - Filter's first new disc in five years, post-Patrick's taking time off to deal with his alcohol addiction - is laced with irritation over the seemingly never-ending war in Iraq and general uncertainty about the times we're living in. But it's the first single off the album, "Soldiers of Misfortune" (download it at nypost.com), that really sheds light on Patrick's mind-set during his writing process.Inspired by a longtime Filter fan, the song is about a kid who "wanted to get a college education so he joined the Reserves, thinking, 'It's 1998, nothing will happen,'" Patrick says."In his senior year of college, they yank him out, tell him to put everything in storage, put him in training and send him to Baghdad. Ten days later, he ends up dead."A play on the "soldier of fortune" mercenary image, Patrick says "this kid is a soldier of misfortune - he's not Blackwater. He wasn't out there for any other reason than to do the country's bidding and there better be a very good reason for him to be out there and there wasn't . . . it's a stupid war and now he's dead."Having just turned 40, Patrick says, "I've grown up enough to know that I have to say something - I want to say something, popular or not."Whi
