Contrary to popular belief, you're not going to change the world sitting on your couch watching the Presidential primaries. You could, however, change the world by sitting on your couch listening to The Green Owl Comp: A Benefit for the Energy Action Coalition, a two-CD/one-DVD collection of hot, rare, and otherwise worthwhile indie rock tracks and videos. As the title suggests, it benefits youth-centric environmental do-goodery network the Energy Action Coaltion.

Feist, Of Montreal, Bloc Party, Deerhoof, A Place to Bury Strangers, Muse, School of Seven Bells, Asobi Seksu, Juliana Hatfield, Earl Greyhound, and many others contribute audio from their respective vaults, while the DVD gathers a half-dozen exclusive videos and an interview with Energy Action Coalition co-founder Billy Parish.

All proceeds from the sale of the set go to the Energy Action Coalition, and it can be purchased beginning April 8 from Green Owl Records.
