Flaming Lips - Oczy Mlody

came here to post this as well. snippet of new single here. sounds pretty nice actually:

Sounds nice, but also sounds a hell of a lot like a lot of their stuff from this century. I know a band can't go on reinventing themselves forever, but I was a bit underwhelmed.

has any of their music been good since yoshimi?

this.

war with the mystics is definitely patchy (crap at times) but has some good moments. i 4 1 enjoyed embryonic and the terror !!

I thought Mystics was the last solid release, past two albums have been too samey brick walled psych rock.

All of them since Yoshimi have had their moments, but I've not found any of them satisfying as albums. Which is a shame because Hit to Death in the Future Head is the only one of their first ten albums I don't love.

I thought the terror was fantastic. Mystics and embryonic were bloated and mix-matched imo. like a collection of songs. the terror was cohesive and minimal in a smart way.

agree this sounds like more of the same, but it sounds good.

def agreed that the terror is best thing they've done in while.

Huge fan of Embryonics and The Terror here, much more than their previous records actually. 

thnx 4 the input frendz

Embryonic had much greatness.

The Terror has that Butterfly song which I liked quite a bit.

this album was surprisingly good on first listen. very dark and trippy.

They were really bland on Jimmy Fallon, the two new drummers, I dunno. The last guy was tough to beat.

i didn't know they lost their original drummer

there's some cool stuff on this new one

There was some drama within the band a couple of years ago about this Native American thing:
