Preview it here:

One review:
WTF?????
by TheBoss271
This is the best argument yet for iTunes to implement negative ratings!!!

:lol: I have a feeling that is probably by a die hard Pink Floyd fan. The Flaming Lips don't seem to be the kind of band that you hear one time and fall in love with.

I haven't heard the whole thing yet but I like the Lips overall and I like what I've heard so far.

Can you see Wayne Coyne's package?
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I'm not allowed to discuss that. I don't want to violate my probation.

I listened to the sound samples. I am confident, even with such a short listening time, this is as bad as the Mars movie he just finished.

Bad as in the original is a lullying sonic wonder. They did their own take, I will give them that, but it really doesn't sound like they did anything special. A lot of distortion, noise and ugh Henry Rollins. Henry - stick to your funny spoken word stories.

There is a great reggae version of Dark Side by the Easy All Stars - Dub Side Of The Moon. Its a great summer album.

I have always hated The Flaming Lips for some reason.
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

Yeah the Henry Rollins thing was surprise but not a good one. It definitely sounds like they just put the album into the Lips-O-Matic machine. I do like Great Gig In the Sky though.

I'm starting to dislike the Lips the more I think about it.

Goddamnit Scouser. First My Bloody Valentine and now the Flaming Lips.

What's wrong with MBV? They had one record 20 years ago and it was good.

Loveless used to be my greatest album of all time till Scouser said they were overrated and then I listened to it again and I was like maybe it is.

I'm pretty feeble minded.
