Dark Night of the Soul

A collaboration between Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse the album in it’s entirety is available for streaming online for free at NPR. From NPR; The album features:

Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse (Mark Linkous), other artists appearing on Dark Night of the Soul include James Mercer of The Shins, The Flaming Lips, Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals, Jason Lytle of Grandaddy, Julian Casablancas of The Strokes, Frank Black of the Pixies, Iggy Pop, Nina Persson of The Cardigans, Suzanne Vega, Vic Chesnutt, David Lynch, and Scott Spillane of Neutral Milk Hotel and The Gerbils.

The album has been released by the artist as a blank printed CD-R along with a poster.  User’s are then led to their own methods of getting the music on the disc.   This was after a dispute with record label EMI.  It seems the only ones to win from this is the artists and the fans.
