AMAZING FUCKING AMAZING. I've had about 5 opportunities to listen since I purchased this album 2 weeks ago. Friends of mine who thought this album as pointless were amazed and found themselves wondering why no other band has done this?!? Maybe others have and I'm just not aware. This album is extremely fun to listen to. How Will We Know makes me laugh so hard when I see my friends covering their ears and screaming WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!? Every moment of this album is amazing, and whats even more amazing is that every moment will be in a different place on every listen. You can never grasp it, you can never understand it. Just appreciate it while you listen and wonder about all the other possibilities in the world.

March of the Rotten Vegetables is a hidden gem.

Not one person has actually listened to this bollocks, the band, the producer, God. Nobody, cos no cunt is foolish enough to faff about setting it all up.

This review is understandable, but off the mark; Zaireeka is a lot of things but pointless is absolutely not one. The Lips pushed the boundaries of what physical media could mean in a very meaningful and deliberate manner (not to mention as a refinement from previous experiments). They said themselves that it wasn't meant as an offering to their wider fanbase, but as a very specific outing, so shock horror it's not as digestible as Clouds Taste or The Soft Bulletin. The music here is also glorious and in many ways more evocative than much of The Soft Bulletin.

I saw this on CD at the store the other day. Should I have grabbed it?

Yes. Go back and get it. It's worth quite a lot even if you don't jam it, and you can always mix it into one track if you want to listen easily.

Picked this up on CD a few days ago and listened to it with my sister this afternoon. Shit was honestly mind-blowing. Even if all the tracks don't sync up perfectly (which they aren't intended to) it's still a total trip. "March of the Rotten Vegetables" is goddamn terrifying coming out of 8 different speakers all around your living room at full volume. "The Train Runs Over the Camel" is also a ridiculously awesome experience.

Sony surely was thankful when this album was releasd. Imagine each costumer buying 4 audio players to play this album.
