Alright, for anyone that wants a copy of the King Crimson cover album, Guestroom Records in OKC has them and is doing mailorder. The cost is $30 shipped.

Just send an email with your address and info to guestroomrecords@gmail.com and they'll send you a Paypal link to pay for it.

I just wanted to confirm this is the case. I sent them an email a couple days ago and yesterday they gave me the paypal info, I paid, and they shipped it.

Now I realize I'm kinda just talking out of my rear end here, but it's what I've been putting together based on Wayne's behavior combined with the Lips' recent musical output.

As for this whole Michelle/groupie thing, I have no loving idea but I really hope Wayne gets through whatever's going on with him because I'm getting worried about him.

I don't really know anything, besides what I see on Twitter/etc, but your post sums up my feelings too. It's kind of a bummer, given all that he/they went through with Steven's addiction (and his brother's), as detailed in Fearless Freaks. I'm hoping things get back to (weirdly) normal and they make some good music again (haven't been too turned on by most of the collaborations over the last year or two).

It's pretty obscene, and it's not even 180 gram. Typical Warner Bros. poo poo.

drat, what a rip. Embryonic is on their site for 25 for 2lp transparent vinyl with a bonus cd. It better have lots of wacky free poo poo and be edible or something for $38 :(

Soundstage Direct has it for 34.99. Plus all orders over 29.99 qualify for free shipping.

http://www.soundstagedirect.com/flaming-lips-the-terror-vinyl-records.shtml

So that's slightly less money.

Bullmoose.com has it for $31.48 (free shipping), which makes it slightly less of a ripoff:

I went for the UK lp for The Terror. It's 22 UKP shipped to the US (with discount code PRESALE at http://www.rise-music.co.uk/browse/search/flaming+lips/item/245938/Flaming-Lips-The-Terror.html). Figured it's a winner for the bonus 7", although I do hope it has zany-colored vinyl. $32.85 at current exchange rates.

Here's a random new split single of an OKC band called Horse Thief covering 'Try To Explain' and the Lips covering a Horse Thief Song:

I did get my Rise UK vinyl order of The Terror the other day. It is a nice heavy-duty package and the shiny cover is pretty sweet. It took me several minutes to find and dig out the CD version that was advertised as being included. I had hopes that the Side D megamix (whatever it's called) would be better, but oh well - the rest of the album is holding up well.

I'm curious about that, but I'm more excited about the Flaming Lips/Tame Impala crossover record (each doing three of the other band's songs, if I recall details correctly). I was a little bummed they didn't have them for sale at the Boston show. Apparently they'll be for-sale through the website too? Here's a Waynestagram.

The first song from the new Peace Sword EP is streaming. Sounds very encouraging to me. The list price for the record is apparently $18.98.

And the cover/tracklist for the Flaming Lips/Tame Impala record are up:

Is this everything they're releasing this Friday? I'm wondering what the prices will be like.

Looks like there's a delay on some of this stuff.

The Future Heart says:

quote:

The 30th anniversary releases originally announced to be issued on Back Friday have been postponed according to recordstoreday.com. The re-issue of the Lips’ debut 12″ and the 7″ with four unreleased 1983 songs are now scheduled to be released Christmas Eve. No release date is set for their first cassette demo on 7″.

Peace and Paranoia, Peace Sword, and The Time Has Come To Shoot You Down…What A Sound are still due Black Friday, as previously announced.

Not too into the cover art for 7 Skies H3, but I see it's listed at $24.98 MSRP:

quote:

On vinyl for the first time ever. A 50 minute distillation across 10 tracks of the remarkable 24-hour song recorded at Tarbox Road Studios in 2011. Includes digital download card.

They're also on a split-7" for record store day with Devo:

quote:

Part of WMG's Side By Side series. Includes Devo's "Gates Of Steel" from the original DEV-O Live EP and a previously unreleased cover by The Flaming Lips all on gorgeous silver vinyl! "Gates of Steel" was the 4th single from Devo's 1980 breakthrough album, Freedom Of Choice and is a fan favorite. Prolific psych-rockers The Flaming Lips covered of Devo's "Gates of Steel" live in 2013 and released the song first as a video. Shot during the same live session as the "Turning Violent" video , the Freedom of Choice cut was adapted to fit the radiantly noisy sonic and visual esthetic that the band's been flaunting since The Terror.

I don't really deal with the Cabbage Patch Kid bullshit anyway. I just call ahead and tell the store what I want and wait until the crowd dies down to pick it up.

Aren't you in the Boston area? What is your preferred store to do that kinda thing, my good man? I've lived here for 15 years, but I still have a soft spot for Bull Moose from my olden times, so I don't have a big loyalty with one shop that I'd call on to do that for me. Bull Moose's free shipping for $25+ orders means I get quite a lot of stuff through them..

Apparently the Electric Wurms side-project album is coming out in a couple weeks. And a flexi-disc single was released today. I don't know how these things sound, but I at least have some enthusiasm for a Drozd-led prog-rock album.

This chat between Prince Paul and Wayne Coyne reminds me a little of the good ol' days of non-dickhead Wayne: http://www.talkhouse.com/wayne-coyne-flaming-lips-talks-prince-paul-talkhouse-music-podcast/

quote:

On the eve of the release of the Flaming Lips’ new record Oxzy Mlody, Wayne Coyne sat down with legendary hip-hop producer Prince Paul at the Sonos store in New York City and got deep on creativity and collaboration. Their talk takes on the Lips’ creative process, De La Soul’s copyright issues, the joy of life, scaring neighborhood kids and how Wayne gets blamed for turning Miley Cyrus into a drug addict. After their conversation, Wayne and Prince Paul answered questions from members of Battles, Bauhaus/Love and Rockets and Brookzill!

Yeah I've given up on that, the Lips are a cool live show to go to now, and I listen to Yoshimi or Bulletin now and then but that's about it.

Too much other music out there, recently been going through all of Iggy Pop's albums and that's been fun :v:

I haven't seen them live in a few years (since the tour with Tame Impala?), but this recent (I'm assuming) live video looks like it's still a fun time:
