Finally the flaming lips have released a box set [BOX SET],
This review is from: Finally The Punk Rocker Are Taking Acid 1983 - 1988 (3 Cd Set) (Audio CD)
for any hardcore flaming lips fan this really is an album you cant live without, seriously. The album takes you on a magical journey from the very begining of the flaming lips up until 1988 where you have to buy the next CD (the day we shot a hole in the jesus egg). This boxset not only contains the original album material but also outakes, demo's, remixes and comments from the flaming lips. Even if you own the original albums i still would definatly suggest buying this. for all you new flips fans, these albums are nothing like "yoshimi battles the pink robots" which is amazing, so if your expecting dance music, think again this is rock at its best !!!!!

a great compilation of their early works,
This review is from: Finally The Punk Rocker Are Taking Acid 1983 - 1988 (3 Cd Set) (Audio CD)
the flaming lips are one of the worlds greatest bands. but i am not going to pretend that their early offerings are anywhere near as good as the genius of yoshimi..., the soft bulletin, clouds..., transmissions..., or even hit to death..., but its still worth a listen. and thankfully some clever so-and-so has put it all on one 3-disc compilation. if nothing else, at least this saves money for newer fans looking to buy out the lips' back catalogue. just don't be expecting another soft bulletin...

It's the lips, so you already know it's amazing,
This review is from: Finally The Punk Rocker Are Taking Acid 1983 - 1988 (3 Cd Set) (Audio CD)
Well. What can i say about this...Its the flaming lips, so as the title of this review suggests, the very notion of it being anything but fantastic is ridiculous, but this box set truly is the best thing since sliced bread. The e.p is a wonderful introduction to the Lips, and shows the potential they had straight away. Hear it is, the first album, is quite frankly the weirdest, most hypnotic mess of cosmic rock, punk and downright euphoria that you will ever heard. Oh My Gawd is, as you will know if you have read my review of it, one of my favourite albums of all time, and i shant praise it anymore, just listen to it, and become a Coyne convert like me. Telepathic Surgery is another beautiful album, maybe less accesible than the previous 2, but tracks like UFO Story and Chrome Plated Suicide really show the variety the Lips have in they're arsenal. The bonus tracks, on the end of each disc, are amazing, both live versions of album tracks and wonderful covers, After The Gold Rush and the live version of Jesus Shooting Heroin proving especially special. All in all, its 3 discs of religious scripture, and after listening, i guarantee you will never think or act the same again.
