This sounds very peculiar.

Quote:
Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse's Mark Linkous were rumoured to have been working on new music together under the tentative names of either Danger Horse or Sparklemouse, but it now appears their collaboration involves lots of other people, too.

A poster that says "Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse present Dark Night Of The Soul" is making the rounds. The project is promised for this summer, but what's much more intriguing is the list of featured artists on the poster:

Black Francis (a.k.a. Frank Black or "that guy from The Pixies"); The Strokes' Julian Casablancas; partially paralyzed singer/songwriter Vic Chesnutt; The Flaming Lips; film director, yogic flying advocate and quinoa enthusiast David Lynch (Blue Velvet, Wild At Heart); Grandaddy's Jason Lytle; The Shins' James Mercer; The Cardigans' Nina Persson; Iggy Pop; Super Furry Animals' Gruff Rhys; and Suzanne Vega.

Danger Mouse (real name Brian Joseph Burton) first came to prominence with 2004's Jay-Z/The Beatles mash-up, The Grey Album. He's since released two records as half of Gnarls Barkley, been part of The Good, The Bad & The Queen, and produced albums for Gorillaz and Beck.

Singer/multi-instrumentalist Linkous has recorded much of the material on Sparklehorse's four albums in his home studio, usually in collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Scott Minor.

Sparklehorse's last record, 2006's Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain, featured contributions from Danger Mouse. Sparklehorse and The Flaming Lips covered Daniel Johnston's "Go" for the film The Sasquatch Gang.

For some reaosn I thought they'd been working on this for years already.

also, I like that they had to mention that Vic Chestnutt is partially paralyzed.

I thought this bit was pretty funny though.

YES.

And a lot like Sophtware Slump and Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space as a whole this isn't blissed out enough or interesting enough to keep my attention.

I am still waiting for Linkous to come through with Aural Big H - not sure if he will ever quite get there.

odds of that are very, very low.

I find it more likely that they just want to nudge people into paying them for a premium account (which I ain't gonna do). I could be wrong though.

This is pretty damn good. Love to see the visuals Lynch comes up with to go with it.

"Vivadixie..." is daaaaaaaamn close to what I'm pretty sure you're driving at. I agree with you as far as what his potential is, but even if he never quite gets there I'll go away feeling good about having been a fan of his work.

[quote]Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse's collaboration with David Lynch may not see official release.

It’s been one of the most hotly anticipated albums of 2009 since it was first announced: “Dark Night of the Soul,â€
