Inside the Liner Notes: Bright Eyes - Digital Ash in a Digital Urn
src: photos1.blogger.com

Digital Ash in a Digital Urn is one of two Bright Eyes albums (along with I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning) released on January 25, 2005 by Saddle Creek Records. It peaked at #15 in the US and #43 in the UK. In US it has sold 268,000 units. In 2007 it was awarded a gold certification from the Independent Music Companies Association which indicated sales of at least 100,000 copies throughout Europe. Contrasted to the acoustic nature of I'm Wide Awake It's Morning, this album is more electronic.

The singles "Take It Easy (Love Nothing)" from Digital Ash in a Digital Urn and "Lua" from the album I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning took the top two slots on the Billboard Hot 100 Single Sales chart.

Tour

The band achieved success in the charts when the singles "Lua" and "Take It Easy (Love Nothing)" took the top two positions in the Billboard Hot Singles Sales chart in 2004, and in 2005 the band set off on a two-part world tour to promote their new albums, I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning, and Digital Ash in a Digital Urn. The first half of the tour promoted the folk-influenced first album, and the latter half featured the more electronic second album. Both records made it into the Top 20 of the Billboard album charts. The tour was captured on Motion Sickness, released later in the year.

The more experimental of Conor Oberst's two releases in January 2005 is the electronic-flavored 'Digital Ash,' which includes some help from the Yeah Yeah Yeah's Nick Zinner and the Postal Service's Jimmy Tamborello.
