DANGER MOUSE + SPARKLEHORSE + DAVID LYNCH

= DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL (not to be confused with Dark was the Night although, it is kind of confusing)
ok, i know i'm a little late to post this NYTimes worthy news (although i have to give props to Rad Not Sad as i read it there first) and everyone probably already knows about it by now, but just in case you missed it....
here's the NPR link to stream entire album

as for the Lynch photographs, a few:

VOLCANO CHOIR?

Collaboration Between Collection Of Colonies Of Bees And Justin Vernon of Bon Iver
out sept 22

from Jagjaguwar website:
Unmap ultimately came together over a weekend in November 2008 in Fall Creek, Wisconsin, at Justin and brother Nate Vernon's recording studio. And while it is at its heart a record about the allure of being with people you need and making something with them, it is also a document created by musicians with rare gifts getting together to exorcise their ideas about beauty. This scaffolding of loops and off grid tempos for choral style vocals offers a state of continual surprise, call it unexpectation.

should be interesting.
