Great stuff - giving it a three for now as I didn’t get to listen to it as much as I wanted.

this one is cool

loved it.

Fun album, solid listen

Really hated the vocals on this and otherwise was only semi interested in the music

Listened before

I can easily see this going down as an all time favorite for me, it is gorgeously produced, trippy as all hell, and genuinely tearjerking. Appeals to me massively as an indie fan.

Awesome record, great atmosphere. I love Wayne’s voice. Favourites are “A Spoonful Weighs a Ton” and “The Spiderbite Song.”

Twee in places but still got a lot of instrumentation and sounds in it

Everyone knows OF the flaming lips but tbh I can't think of anyone who actually likes them. I have a vague idea of what to expect, but interested to see what a full album is like. Ok so it's hard to listen to with headphones. The panning of the drums is off, mostly in the right and then there's a synth in the same frequencies on the left... this shouldn't have been allowed lol. And wiki is GUSHING over it... it's ok? It kinda seems like alt rock aiming for the stars. Not sure about the hype - seems more everyone thinking it's wonderful for its ambition rather than the end product. Again, it's ok. Old mate still hasn't learnt to sing since that ridiculous shit in the early 90s. 2/5 cause it's draaaaging towards the end.

Great stuff from a band in their prime

5* for the great cinematic music.... minus 2 for the guy screeching over the top!
