Not to be confused with Dark Was The Night, except for similar potential for mind explosion. We had more than a few conversations at SXSW about the intriguing, ubiquitous (in Emo’s anyway) poster for the otherwise unknown project from old friends Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse, with a billed guestlist including Black Francis, Julian Casablancas, the Flaming Lips, James Mercer, Iggy Pop, Gruff Rhys, Jason Lytle, Nina Persson, Suzanne Vega, even more etcs., and visuals by David Lynch(!). But now they’re turning up in bloggers’ mailboxes so IT IS ON. As in, let’s all post about it and talk it out? Hive mind time. David Lynch implies filmic supplement, the fine print on the poster promises an “album coming summer 2009.” Which is almost now. (Hive mind in effect.) Here’s what’s coming to bloggers via snail mail:

Dark was the night of the soul of the OMG. More when we know it.

Jizzed in my pants
Isn’t David Lynch from Dokken?
best thing to ever come out of a mailbox.
I’m not gonna lie… I just want Danger Mouse to do another hip hop related project. Maybe that second album with Jemini? Maybe most stereogum readers aren’t up on hip hop like I am. Diversity yall.
one.
it’s supposedly in the works.
The most slept on hip-hop album of all time.
Still I heard somebody talking about a Grizzly Wolf Weekend Hunter album. That’s how it’s done in 2009.
Word to the motherbird.
YES.
i will never be upset to hear danger mouse is doing something new with someone else, i’m never disappointed.
Meh. Hasn’t dangermouse, like, been around for over 6 months? Come on stereogum, post about some Grizzly Wolf Weekend Hunter.
Remember the grey album that came out five years ago and how dope it was? Gorillaz-Demon Dayz? Sparklehorse’s last album that was also incredible? Ever hear of gnarls barkley? JackFoolio, go do your homework, son.
oh right its a fake band used as part of a joke
they were all over sxsw…..especially emo’s….
David Lynch has done some songwriting (for Julee Cruise, the woman who did the Twin Peaks theme, and I think he’s written songs for some of his films), so maybe he’s contributing musically?
…or maybe he’s just explaining how to cook quinoa for 25 minutes (summary: you put it in boiling water. the end.). Oh, David Lynch…
