Dark Was the Night

I recently picked up the Red Hot two disc compilation Dark Was the Night and it's been on repeat since I got it. In the car, on the stereo, on the computer, humming to myself in the bathroom, I've been listening non-stop for two days now. What can I say, it's catchy. And with artists like Sufjan Stevens, The Decemberists, The National, Conor Oberst, Iron & Wine, Spoon, Arcade Fire, Bon Iver, and The New Pornographers, what's not to like? Oh, and did I mention the sales benefit AIDS research?

Here's a three song sampling of my favorites, enjoy!
