Dark Night of the Soul, the hotly anticipated new album by Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse, will be "released" as a blank recordable CD with a note encouraging fans to download it from an illegal filesharing network. Although the album can be heard through an authorised internet stream, it will not receive an official physical or digital release, the group have announced, due to an unspecified legal dispute with EMI.

Sorry if this is old, but i just got the album and I have to admit it's pretty....interesting. If you're someone familiar with DM because of the DangerDoom album, you may be disappointed because it sounds really different. It samples a ton of different sounds and has many cool acts on it like Iggy Pop and different singers from the Shin, The Flaming Lips and Julian from the strokes. Don't come here for rapping.

If you pre-order the disc, you get a blank-cdr and artwork from David Lynch. Fucking bizarre. Give it a listen, It's a nice way to spend the day, and it's literally free music.

Oh and Phoenix, i haven't forgotten the Pell grant thread.
Oh and I'm on a iphone so if the spelling is weird or the structure is shit forgive me.

Yeah, I caught wind of this album a couple days ago. It's simply amazing.

 

[Luscious LeftFoot]

Nice! I like Dangermouse and i'm always up for some new music.

I love the Strokes, and the song with Julian singing is ACE. Love it.

I downloaded it last weekend and haven't stopped listening to it. Every guest on the album gives their songs a different sound, it's really awesome.

Yep. Typing is easy and pretty fast. It's the spelling and erractic spellcheck that can bite you.

The Julian song is great. If that is the "mysterious" sound they are aiming for with their next album, then I'm stoked.
