The Flaming Lips- Clouds Taste Metallic is a fucking kickass album

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 11.19.2007, 12:29 AM

Anyone else think of Kim Gordon wielding a watermelon gun when they listen to this album?

Cantankerous · 11.19.2007, 12:31 AM

no but that is possibly the most amusing image that's popped into my mind all day.

pbradley · 11.19.2007, 02:18 AM

I still prefer In A Priest Driven Ambulence.

dressedindreams · 11.19.2007, 02:38 AM

Awesome album, only topped by "transmissions".
The "kim" in that song is meant to be kim deal.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 11.19.2007, 04:30 AM

Hmmm, didn't know that. I wasn't far off the mark. I had no reason to believe it was a famous Kim.

screamingskull · 11.19.2007, 05:22 AM

it's their best in my opinion, i love the last two songs the best.

ZEROpumpkins · 11.19.2007, 06:55 AM

An ok album. I only really like the first song and Placebo headwound. I just can't stand Wayne.

Derek · 11.19.2007, 08:51 AM

Clouds Taste Metallic is probably my favourite Flaming Lips album.

PAULYBEE2656 · 11.19.2007, 09:16 AM

clouds taste metallic is the last decent album the flps put out ever.......

in a priest driven ambulance and hit to death are my favourites tho.

atsonicpark · 11.19.2007, 10:08 AM

i bought this many years ago at a pawn shop for $1.

it's great.

Youre not the least bit impressed a band like flaming lips who when started were just a barely could play faux-noise band, and evolved all the way to make a record as masterful like the soft bulletin?

PAULYBEE2656 · 11.19.2007, 11:38 AM

nope. the soft bulletin is weak and yoshimi is even worse, at war with themystics is awful.....

....just an opinion. i prefered them when they didnt try to emulate their friends (mercury rev) leap into mainstream conciousness.......

...god that sounds real concieted, i dont mean to be. i just prefer their rockier stuff.

fugazifan · 11.19.2007, 05:31 PM

it os a great album... really great. every song. simply great...
and they put n one of the better live shows that i have been to

StevOK · 11.19.2007, 09:31 PM

Soft Bulletin > Zaireeka > CTM > Transmissions > IAPDA > newer stuff > older stuff

ZEROpumpkins · 11.20.2007, 04:36 AM

While we are doing maths:
Soft Bulletin = Most overrated album ever.

glad to know i am not alone. although it is a gem compared to yoshimi and mystics.

Everyneurotic · 11.20.2007, 01:49 PM

i fucking love at war with the mystics and the soft bulletin, but i also love priest driven ambulance and all them old albums.

basically, there's not much i don't like by them.

atsonicpark · 11.20.2007, 09:25 PM

yeah, i don't ever really have the urge to listen to them, but everything they've done is good.

never heard zaireeka in its, uh, "proper" way, though i doubt it really makes that big of a difference. just one of those "oh whoooooooooa coollllllll" things. brilliant, but.. not something i feel like getting 4 stereos together for..
