Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse - Dark Night of the Soul

I can't work out just what it is that's missing from this one - a multi-party collaboration from 2009/2010 with quite the line-up (Wayne Coyne, Frank Black, Iggy Pop, Julian Casablancas, Nina Persson and more). Most of the individual songs seem quite good, and the genre spectrum is broad in a post-millennial indie-rocky kind of way while held together particularly by Mark Linkous's musical sensibility, yet - at least for me - it's never all that exciting. Just one of those things.
