embryonic452 Flaming Lips   The Sparrow Looks Up At The Machine[wpaudio url="http://tony2nice.green.feralhosting.com/data/Embryonic%20v0/02%20-%20The%20Sparrow%20Looks%20Up%20At%20the%20Machine.mp3" text="Flaming Lips - The Sparrow Looks Up at the Machine"]

I didn’t really want to become yet-another-music-blog—lord knows there’s more and better out there—but I just keep running across really really great music.

Case in point? Oklahoma hometown heroes, The Flaming Lips, a band I’ve (shamelessly) never really gotten very excited about. Even with my being from that very part of america. What? Yeah.

But forget all that, cuz they’re back with a new double album: Embryonic. It’s noisy, dirty, fuzzed out, and about as far from expected as I could’ve hoped for. Listen for this: at about 2:33 you’ll notice some cellphone static that’s actually baked into the song.

Love that. And this album. Do press play.

Protip: subscribe to the podcast and automagically download these songs.
