The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends

The Flaming Lips

A chaotic, noise-drenched collaborative fever dream. Unpredictable textures and distorted pop cameos collide in a dark, psychedelic sprawl.

It's like a psychedelic car crash where Ke$ha and Nick Cave both survived and started a noise band.

A restless and abrasive exploration of the dark side of the psychedelic moon.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition into industrial noise during the Ke$ha collaboration on track one.
The ten-minute slow-burn deconstruction of a classic ballad with Erykah Badu.
The sudden, violent drum fills that erupt out of the murky atmosphere in track ten.
