Definitely classic albums mentioned above.....and the Ronald Era was fucking great too....Transmissions and Clouds..... but

Lately I've gotten into Telepathic Surgery which is a really killer album, fuckin rockin with ufo(s) flying around!! Hear It Is has some fucking classics on it as well like Godzilla Flick, With You, Jesus Shootin Heroin, and She is Death (one of my favorites!) but

Even from the diehards who always go with Priest Driven Ambulance and Hit to Death in the Future Head (Jonathon Donahue era (Mercury Rev)) I never hear enough about Oh My Gawd! This album is comparable to EVOL or Bad Moon Rising as it is their weirdest album! This album is all over the place starting with the opener Everything's Exploding (awesome!!) followed by One Millionth of a Billionth of a Millisecond (Their most epic song ever!!!), the sweet lyrical acoustic Can't Exist, The Ceilin' is Bendin' (one of my alltime favorites and weirdest song ever!! Sounds like fucking aliens!! I don't know why or how that theme seems to follow the Lips, probably some experience Wayne had as a kid), and not to go on about all the songs but the closer Love Yer Brain is one of the most gorgeous songs ever!

I feel bad and still haven't seen this video but know I need to!

I love the Lips too!!
