Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse present: Dark Night of the Soul
Released: 12/07/2010
EMI
A remarkable collaboration between producer Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse’s Mark Linkous and filmmaker David Lynch, who provides some special artwork and contributes two songs. Sadly, both Linkous and guest Vic Chesnutt have passed away since the album’s recording last year, adding to its already notable weightiness.

The Independent“Some nights of the soul are obviously darker than others...” Burton acknowledges the common themes here involve "pain, revenge, war [and] twisted dreams", these realisations of those themes are somehow infused with uplifting moments, joyous melodies and the sheer exuberance of creativity...
