Digital Ash in a Digital Urn is one of two Bright Eyes albums released on January 25, 2005 by Saddle Creek Records (the other is I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning). It peaked at #15 in the US and #43 in the UK. Bright Eyes is headed by Conor Oberst. 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.
