I think a lot of people get the wrong idea about the flaming lips nowadays. Originally and for a long time they were a crazy psychedelic noise pop rock band up until about Clouds Taste Metallic. Then they tried out synthesizers with Yoshimi and Soft Bulletin adn got huge exposure. I'm glad a friend turned me on to the earlier stuff.
Here's some great early songs you should hear if you dont like the stuff off their last two records:
Lightning Strikes The Postman
Pilot Can at the Queer of God
Everything's Exploding
Moutain Side
Charlie Manson Blues
Jesus Shooting Heroin
Unconsciously Screaming
God Walks Among Us Now
Frogs
