I saw them live for the first time a couple of weeks ago. While there were definitely quite a few songs I wish they played, their live show is clearly pretty badass. Wayne Coyne holding a baby with electric xmas light tentacles coming out of it, lots of confetti, smoke machines, and 50 year old dudes in the audience eating shrooms.

that sounds brilliant. i saw them live a year or so back and yes, it was definitely incredible^-^

One thing you can never accuse the Flaming Lips of being is boring, that's for sure!

i hope it is in a similar realm as their last album. i absolutely love that. they started to lose me over the last few records and this most recent one really pulled me back in.

There's a Record Store Day in November??

Hoping to snag the CD

thought i'd avoid a new thread, this sounds interesting (to me, at least, i was huge roses fan back in the day):

cool

Will always have love for Flaming Lips.

oh!! i was going to bump this thread but couldn't find it and then forgot about it.

but! the title track Peace Sword features tobacco (from black moth super rainbow). and you can totally hear it too, once you know what to listen for:)

(and fourth track Think Like A Machine, Not A Boy features him too apparently, which seems to be from the same session as the first track?)

love this new Peace Swords track, they play it a lot on the radio a lot, its cool!

I wondered why that chord sounded so familiar, then it hit me as I was falling asleep the other night:
