WHELMED
9/10 album honestly
>>72567735
definitely underrated
Look, The Sun Is Rising is unironically my SOTD.
>>72567735
I agree. Really good follow-up to Embryonic. I don't like where they are going now though.
Last good album from them.
>>72568003
i wouldnt say it was good but it definitely was the last of their charm
>>72568036
It wasn't good, it was great.
A great sendoff album too. Should have been their last one.
>>72568242
it wasnt that great, kind of a downer if you ask me
>>72568242
This. Oczy was a mistake.
>>72568254
it's a downer in the depressive sense, but every track is thematically solid and just keeps building
made me think about Albert Camus' L'Etranger
>We want, or wanted, to believe that without love we would disappear, that love, somehow, would save us that, yeah, if we have love, give love and know love, we are truly alive and if there is no love, there would be no life. The Terror is, we know now, that even without love, life goes on... we just go on... there is no mercy killing.
Would have been a very bleak end to their career if it had been their last.
>>72567735
Will they recover from Oczy Mlody?
>>72568496
as long as this is a thing... no
>>72568474
every end is bleak, it's the end
the beginning is where the joy is exhausted
>>72568254
give it another listen... i heard it three times before it really clicked, and i had a flood of tears by the end
>>72568506
Miley fucked it all up for them
she put a wrench in the machine of their artistic integrity
They got another good album in them. Trust me my brothers
>>72568700
if Miley gets out of Wayne's hair, yes
>>72568780
That and whatever is wrong with Steve that made him write something like Oczy Mlody. And they get a real drummer
Oczy Mlody isn't even that bad. Not much worse than War at the Mystics. Both are low 7's
>>72569133
War is better than Oczy
War = 8/10
Oczy = 6.5/10
>>72569238
War is way too bloated with cheese to be an 8.
>>72569290
but I like cheese, especially extra sharp cheddar
Starting with Hit to Death in the Future Head
HTDINTFH - 8.5
TFTSH - 8.75
CTM - 9
Zaireeka - 9.5
Soft Bulletin - 9.75
Yoshimi - 8.5
War - 7.25
Embryonic - 9
Terror - 8.75
Oczy Mlody - LOW 7
>>72569351
Is Zaireeka worth listening to with 4 different laptops hooked up to speakers?
>>72569387
With 4 CDs, without a doubt. A fantastic experience for any music fan
>>72569418
I don't have the CD's and I've listened to Zaireeka in full on YT, really like it without it stretched in 4 directions, so I know I'll like it
but do they have the 4 separate CD's on YouTube?
>>72569468

found a vid of ppl listening

Terror is criminally underrated on this board. It's my second favorite Lips album behind Zaireeka.
>>72568506
JUST
>>72567997
Agreed
>>72568861
I miss Steve's drumming.
Kraut Rock hip-hop beats sounds like a cool as fuck concept, but Oczy just aint there....
>>72570968
>Kraut Rock hip-hop beats
>>72571018
I'm sure it exists. I just would love to hear the Flaming Lips pull it off.
2012 Flaming Lips had some of the coolest fucking music...
>>72571018
Didn't mean to be dismissive. This sounds like a cool project, I'm listening to it now btw.
