Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Artist: Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse
Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse - Insane Lullaby (featuring James Mercer) Best song: "Dark Night of the Soul (feat. David Lynch)." I also really like the two songs featuring female singers, "Daddy's Gone (feat. Nina Persson of The Cardigans)" and "The Man Who Played God (feat. Suzanne Vega)." These three make up three of the four last songs on the record, a rather dark final act.
Rotation: Medium-heavy
Deja vu: The should-be soundtrack to a David Lynch film.
I'd rather listen to: Big Star's Third (a.k.a. Sister Lovers)
Grade: B+
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
