    For those unfamiliar its a collaboration of artists masterminded by Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse with a lot of input by David Lynch.

    Track listing

    "Revenge" (featuring The Flaming Lips) – 4:52
    "Just War" (featuring Gruff Rhys) – 3:44
    "Jaykub" (featuring Jason Lytle) – 3:52
    "Little Girl" (featuring Julian Casablancas) – 4:33
    "Angel's Harp" (featuring Black Francis) – 2:57
    "Pain" (featuring Iggy Pop) – 2:49
    "Star Eyes (I Can't Catch It)" (featuring David Lynch) – 3:10
    "Everytime I'm with You" (featuring Jason Lytle) – 3:09
    "Insane Lullaby" (featuring James Mercer) – 3:12
    "Daddy's Gone" (featuring Mark Linkous and Nina Persson) – 3:09
    "The Man Who Played God" (featuring Suzanne Vega) – 3:09
    "Grim Augury" (featuring Vic Chesnutt) – 2:32
    "Dark Night of the Soul" (featuring David Lynch) – 4:38

    I was skeptical listening to it the first time because it seemed to good to be true. Shame it isnt getting a proper release. Such a fantastic collection of work deserves a lot of attention.

    PS. Sorry if this has been discussed before and if it has i'll gladly die at the tip of a MODS sword.

    Yeah,really digging on it myself.

    The Frank Black song "Angel's Harp" aint the best though...

    Ye it doesnt really work. I like the sort of electronic intro and ending though.

    My favorite at the moment is the Gruff Rhys song

    Think there's another thread about it from a few weeks aback but yeah it's a great album.

    I'd go for the Julian Casablancas one myself...

    Yeah love Just War and Little Girl.
    All great maybe except for Iggy Pop's one.
    Sparklehorse are incredible anyway. Kinda dissappointed Mark isn't on more songs. His song is great as well.
