http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/flaming-lips-stretching-out-for-mystics-1003972098.story

Coyne discloses the new material's vibe is different from previous studio polished albums such as 2002's "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" and "At War with the Mystics."

Among the new songs currently in the mix are the Joy Division-meets-Miles Davis Group (John McLaughlin era)-sounding "Convinced of the Hex" and the John Lennon-inspired "I Don't Understand Karma," which Coyne describes as his response to "Instant Karma."

I sincerely hope that this is the one that convinces them to never release another album ever again.

My copy of A Priest Driven Ambulance is a double LP. It's a reissue of course with extras and all that. But still, what's the big deal about a double LP?

I don't know what Joy Division meets Miles Davis Group sounds like, but I'm sure it isn't anything by the Flaming Lips, even though I somewhat like them.

Hmmm...I pretty much feel the same about the Lips as I do Spiritualized. I keep buying the new releases hoping for them to be good, but I'm always disappointed with the new material. The Soft Bulletin has some good tunes but it's downhill after that. Still, I have my fingers crossed, but I don't have much hope.

I don't dislike Miles Davis but tend to get nervous when a band cite him as being an influence on their new project.

I loved the Lips. Their music hasn't excited me in years. They need to get back on drugs.

...Sorry, bad joke. 17,000 posts!

There are many bands, the Lips included, who fail to follow this logic after their first album. Luckily, there are a greater number of bands who fail to release a single thing, saving the public from the potential travesty of another band ever being as terrible as the Lips.

While there's obviously potential for this to be great, I'm honestly not going to get my hopes up. I fucking adore electric Miles, and the idea of that mixed with the Lips in, say, 1993 is glorious, but the idea of it with the Lips that we have now... well frankly it summons up mental images over-produced sub-Floydian floaty ass nu-prog hellishness.

I really hope I'm wrong, because those early Lips records are amazing, and I'm always kind of waiting in vain for a return. If they'd described it as Joy Division-meets-Miles Davis Group with stripped down raw production and messed-up loud guitars I'd be a lot more hopeful. We'll see...
