It's possible that they've claimed the prize of being my favourite band.

I got an advanced copy of [i]At War With the Mystics[/i], and it's bleeping awesome!

The Lips rock!

They have the new album on Torrents, but i would rather wait for it tomorrow and buy it. Plus there streaming it on there site, so i don't want to get sick of it.

All i have is Yoshimi and The Soft Bulletin and they are both pretty ace. I'll probably pick up the new one.

As well, hopefully I'm not the only person who thinks Zaireeka is a completely unnecessary, impratical, and therefore crappy, album.

At War is an awesome album - in my opinion better than anything they've done before.

It's definitly different, I'm glad they decided to do more of a rock album.

Sweet! Flamings Lips are heading to Sweden :D, now I REALLY have to check out their new album.

i like the new album and all, but no way!

Come on?!

Have you heard the sonic landscaps and atmospheres of the middle group of the songs, or the heaviness of the first and last few?

IT ROCKS!!

I strongly disagree. While it is a pain in the *** to get things set up, once you do the sound is excellent. [I]Machine in India[/I] is ace and although a lot of songs are hit or miss it's still a strange and interesting listen. Plus I don't think it's really ment to be take seriously.

I have to listen to these, apparently.

Zaireeka is sublime - be bothered to set it up.

They really are an amazing band.

How much did the Soft Bulletin' companion set you back?

Right now, Flmaing Lips are playing War Pigs on tv.


It is awesome.

I saw there appearance on Austin City Limits the other night, it was pretty short but amazing.
