Dark Night of The Soul Now Streaming, Release Scrapped Due To EMI Dispute

Sparklehorse (Mark Linkous) & Danger Mouse (Brian Burton)
Dark Night of the Soul the collaborative project between Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse, David Lynch with other guests has been scrapped due a dispute between Danger Mouse and EMI. The CD of the album may never be released because EMI may take legal action. An unnamed spokeperson for Danger Mouse said that the CD will not be released "due to an ongoing dispute with EMI". The book featuring photgraphs taken by David Lynch but not the album, it will carry a blank CD-R with a sticker that says "For Legal Reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will." This really sucks for all the people that collaborated on this album. Luckily you can still hear the album at NPR. You can see more details from the project here.
