The Flaming Lips - The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends
The best moments are those which eschew any attempt to write proper 'songs' and instead simply try to convince the listener that he or she is travelling on an epic, wobbly, thrilling and frightening, mind-expanding journey through outer space.

I strongly disagree with this review
I think the album stands up on its on and is one of the best of this year so far.
LOL, skip button.
You do realize this record is from The Flaming Lips, right?
They're not expecting the average Lips fan to be able to find the skip button while listening to it, if you catch my drift.
One of my favorites of the year, too.
I beg to differ - Lips are on fire!
Nice review and amusing too, bu I totally disagree. I though this was a brilliant record, especially given how it was pieced together in ad-hoc session in a year, while they were recording their proper follow up to Embyronic. I think "Retarded" is a great song, and what about the Working at NASA on Acid, and Ashes In The Air, and David Bowie Is Dying? Personally I think they're on fire at the moment.
