Dark Night of the Soul is a two-pronged project: The visual element, represented here, features psych-noir master David Lynch's photographic interpretations of the music created by collaborators Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse. The artwork fills two rooms at Michael Kohn, where it's soundtracked by the album of the same name — now one of the only places you can legally hear it. As a result of a dispute with EMI, the record — featuring vocal contributions from members of the Strokes, the Cardigans, the Flaming Lips, the Pixies, and Super Furry Animals — is no longer receiving an official release. A book containing Lynch's artwork, originally slated to be packaged with the CD, will now only include a blank CD-R, of which the artists cagily advise, "Use it as you will."
