Dark Night Of The Soul- a new project from producer Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse and film maker David Lynch- will be released as a blank CD due to a legal dispute.
The album also features vocalists Iggy Pop, Julian Casablancas from The Strokes, Susanne Vega, Gruff Rhys of Super Animals, The Flaming Lips and Frank Black of The Pixies.
But due to an apparent dispute between Gnarls Barkley and Gorillaz man Danger Mouse and EMI it will now only be available to stream on the internet. Visuals for Dark Night Of The Soul come from Lynch.
A statement given to MTV News said: “The photographs, which provide a visual narrative for the music, are compiled in a limited-edition, hand-numbered 100+ page book, which will now come with a blank, recordable CD-R.
“All copies will be clearly labeled: 'For Legal Reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will.”
Despite the lack of CD release the full album is currently available to stream on the internet.
Danger Mouse is one half of Gnarls Barkley and has produced albums for Beck, Gorillaz, MF Doom, Black Keys and The Shortwave Set.
