But please don’tâEUR"that would be stupid. Overwhelmingly lengthy track list after the jump.

He shares the following quote with The A.V. Club: *I write with a filter of trying to avoid the completely obvious... It's all pretty organic in that I don't have to think about it too much. It just sort of happens. It's who I am. That's what I do. Like Morrissey or something. Morrissey does that. He's the way he is. He's not thinking, "I have to be like Morrissey," you know?

Are you sick of the Jay Z mash ups? DJ Danger Mouse's Grey Album opened up the floodgates of copycats which include Jay Z remixed with Metallica and Weezer. Now there's one more to add which remixes Jay Z's Black Album with Pavement's classic Slanted and Enchanted. The Slack Album available for download now. I can't imagine any repeated listening, it's a cool novelty but nothing exceptional. It's still worth downloading.
