the lips ARE an awesome band...they've got a very quirky attitude, vibe...wayne coyne has such a twisted, funny outlook, yet endearing and very humane, at the same time..it's like the musical equivilant of a douglas adams piece of writing. drozd, ivins and friends ably keep up, and i'd rather hear them go off on a tangent than just about anyone.
'soft bulletin' IS a very good record...but the lads keep getting better with age, so "yoshimi battles the pink robots' is, imho, their best, so far: a totally awesome cd...
they've got a new one...(?please..oh..please !) supposedly coming out this spring, heard the title of it the other day, but the memory plays tricks, it does...
for moi...each album has gotten better..
and they are quite a different experience live
