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.
