To quote my and your best friend, Wikipedia, "The band (The Flaming Lips) is known for their LUSH, multi-layered, psychedelic arrangements, spacey lyrics and bizarre song and album titles." In other words, these guys are fucking too legit to quit. I got into these Lip guys one day when I was mad blazed, smookin fools in FIFA '09. Apparently, they were on my Ipod. Sweet. They are a little weird, but in a good, different way (as in, unique). They are chilled out, but, as the remix posted down below demonstrates, reeeeal noice and feel good. And if you look at bands (i.e. MGMT) that rely heavily on electro sounds in their music, but are still considered "rock bands," look no further than these dudes (been around since the 80s) for the starting point aka inspiration. They are coming out with an album that has the working title "Embryonic," which I expect, like most of their music, will be quite the trip.
Here is their album from 2002, which is the titties:
Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots (straight chillin, this album be)
The YEAH YEAH YEAH Song, Flaming Lips (Twelves Remix)
Right Click and Save As.
With all your powers, what would you do?
And here's a pretty a killa video of a bootyshakin', assgyratin' song, titled "Woman":
...Meet me in the club, it's goin dern...
