The album is currently digitally available across all major platforms, but will be released in physical form on December 18.

The album includes Mark Duplass of Volcano, Kaia Fischer of Rainer Maria, Jeff Rosenstock of Antarctigo Vespucci, Katy Goodman of Vivian Girls, Keil Corcoran of Strfkr, Gus Lobban of Kero Kero Bonito, Josh Burgess of Yumi Zouma, Peter Berkman and Luke Silas of Anamanaguchi, Nick Wilkerson of White Reaper, Ellen Kempner of Palehound, Mike Kinsella of Owen, Matt Pond and Chris Hansen of Matt Pond Pa, Ella Williams of Squirrel Flower, Erin Fein of Headlights, Bob Nanna of Braid, Fred Thomas of Saturday Looks Good To Me and others.

For anyone unfamiliar with the Exquisite Corpse game, it’s a game in which each participant takes turns writing or drawing on a sheet of paper, folding it to conceal their contribution, and then passing it to the next player for a further contribution.

You can pre order the physical format of the album here. According to the press release, “$2 from every physical and digital album sale of Exquisite Corpse will be donated to MusiCares, a non-profit organization that has provided more than $60 million in health, financial, and rehabilitation resources to musicians in their time of need.”
