Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse have written a 13-song album called 'Dark Night Of The Soul' that features vocalists including The Strokes' Julian Casablancas, Iggy Pop, Frank Black, The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne and former Grandaddy man Jason Lytle.

The album will come packaged with a book of photographs taken by Lynch (who also sings on the album) to accompany the music. It will retail at £38.99, be limited to 5,000 copies and will be released in June (a final release date is unconfirmed).
