Today's Sunday Funday comes from National Public Radio, which is currently streaming the new Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse album "Dark Night of the Soul." You can listen to the entire album on the NPR website. According to the story on npr.org:
The album was initially going to be packaged with a book of photos taken by David Lynch. But now there's word that the music may never be officially released at all.An unnamed spokesperson for Danger Mouse says that "due to an ongoing dispute with EMI" the book of photographs will "now come with a blank, recordable CD-R. All copies will be clearly labeled: 'For legal reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will."
In addition to Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse, 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.
