Love that biblical, symbolic cover. I must say, this is fascinating. I'm actually itching to hear it -- particularly the intriguing, linking inserts. Please, dear Shunn, make it so.

Cool concept and some great collections. Aside: find it interesting that Norah's voice is grittier than Grohl's on "Virginia Moon". One more layer of unexpectedness there.
