Adult Swim is offering Warm & Scratchy, a downloadable album of new and/or exclusive and/or rare and, best of all, FREE tracks from some of indie's biggest artists. The Rapture, TV on the Radio, Les Fav Fav, Liars, Broken Social Scene, Jesu, Fennesz, and the Good, the Bad, and the Queen all contribute.
Could this generosity be a ploy to stir up promotion for a new show teeming with geometrically-shaped characters, odd voices, and non sequiturs? If so, note to Adult Swim: the "____ & Scratchy" name is, in a meta sort of way, already taken.
