The flaming lips
 
I love their early records....Everything up to Transmissions from the satalite heart is their best work. Hear it is - OH MY GAWD - Telepathic Surgery - In a priest driven ambulance - Hit to the death in the future head - Transmissions. Anyon else like to agree?

I think I will... I'll say the lips have 3 best albums. Priest drvien is the best. Of their early days 'n' all, I think. Transmissions is their best WB record while they were still a rock band. And soft bulletine is the best modern lips record;

But yea, I realyl like old lips. Like, the first 3 albums can get pretty spotty, but I still prefer them to yoshimi just about any day.

I think i have to say - OH my gawd is my favorite lips album. It totally stands out above everything else...just lisen to The ceiling is bendin'

I'm just getting into them recently, they're pretty good :D. I first saw them on a beavis and butthead episode

yea oh my gawd is awesome, esp ceiling is bending... but all of them fall flat to priest... it just kinda acheives everything they had been trying on the first 3 albums into a unified piece./

hit to death was my stoner album for a long time... i don't even know how many times i listened to that secret track...

I don't know if it's just my perception, but the Lips have morphed into something unrecognizable. I actually gave away my copy of Mystics.

hey alex 04.12.2006 08:56 PM

yea, they definantely turned into something completely different... but I wouldn't say it's bad. I mean, listening to things like transmissions and then the new stuff makes sense to me... it's got the same ideas (well, most of them) just different executions. They're not a rock band anymore, now they work in pop-electronics and that's coolw ith me. Tho I would kill to see them whip out rainin babies.
