You know I LOVE the Flaming Lips. They are perhaps my favorite band all over. But i was kinda dissapointed w/ their new album. I know Wayne likes to keep trying new things to prevent the bands sound from getting stale, but altogether I just wasn't into At War with the Mystics. Some of the songs are pretty good and they have good lyrics (just like always) especially in the Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Song, but I wasn't too hip on the sound of the record. It reminds me of Prince (yuck). Anyone else agree or am I just dillusional?
