There's a lot of controversy about neurotoxicity but it definitely occurs with long-term, chronic use. I just read it induces delta fosb, which is basically like a switch for addiction. Also, the comedown fucking sucks.

Wayne signed my bass and drew a bunch of shit on my pick guard so I should hold onto it now I guess

>>64579521
Contrary to popular belief, Wayne is actually nice as fuck to fans in person, or at least he was with me.

He flirted with my gf right in front of me. She was letting him touch her tits. He was drunk backstage after the show but still it was really weird. My gf went along with it cause she's kinda flirty and loves him but it came off really creepy to me. He's a drugged out pathetic old man in my opinion

Damn...

>>64581130
THANK FUCKING GOD. I've NEVER understood the fucking appeal of Embryonic. Half the goddamn album just sounds like them fucking around in the studio with no direction, or perusing cool ideas that were never fully developed. It's HUGELY overrated. I have NO idea why everyone likes it so much.
>>
>>64581174
I think it's hilarious how they spent the three months following Bowie's death doing nothing but playing Bowie covers and then on the day Prince died they fell dead silent.
>>
>>64581315
Because prince sucks
>>
>>64581270
I mean I by no means loved it(Yoshimi is the magnum opus for me), but I enjoyed it. Imo that album wasn't supposed to be about a direction, but rather just playing around with interesting textures and interplay of different synths to tie together imagery. It was more of a psychedelic trip of an album than something that was conceived to be a tightly knit project. I actually liked how fun the album felt, like they didn't take it too seriously

massive flips dork here
-this "breakup" is from when some kids hacked their twitter a few years back, it's fake
-they are in the middle of recording a new album
-the 2011 eps, heady fwends and the terror were recorded in one long hellish coke binge, and wayne quit after that
-if you think the band sucks because of a beatles cover album they produced a year after making The Terror and Peace Sword, you're an idiot

this fucking band did a record with kesha and they made a tour with miley cyrus and they still have the balls to call themselves rock music... I feel happy they've broken up. It's actually a good thing for music in general
>>
>>64582592
Looks like scribbles a 4 year old could do

>>64582672
Yeah I agree. He signed it like 3 years ago when I was suuuper into them though so it still has a special place in my heart. I really hope they get back on track

both kesha and miley cyrus are more patrician than you

cry? wtf is wrong with you people? if you like this hipster style band it's fine by me, but stop calling it rock or indie music, tfl has nothing to do with that. they actually did a record with kesha and a tour with miley cyrus cause they were losing attention... and yet you people stand up for the. how patetic is that?

because they don't make good music for a long time

Soft Bulletin was their last great album

>>64582850

I'm not upset retarded or foreign my friend. It's just that for stupid people like the ones that stand up for such a patetic commercial thing called the flaming lips it's because we've got so much shitty music on these days. I have no problem with people liking them, I actually listen to a lot of crap sometimes, but stop calling it for something that it isn't.
>>
>>64582816
peace sword and the terror weren't good? those came out 3 years ago, and they're just now working on a proper followup. that is basically the amount of time between any band's albums. but the lips do yearly side projects before doing a new proper album now
>>
>>64582917
Dude you can't English well at all drop the act. Flaming Lips were pretty acclaimed, shit most of their albums are still regarded as real great everywhere but here
>>
>>64582917
the lips are the least commercial now than they have been since 1991

seriously, in 2009 they made an uncompromising, improv-heavy double album. in 2011 they made a series of dark experimental\ambient independent limited releases meant to be shared on the internet. in 2013 they made an krautrock\ambient album. you think because of a cover album they organized for animal charity from 2014 and a free album they did with cyrus, some 12 year old they're too commercial?

i guarantee that if they shit out yoshimi 2, all you handwringing fucks would be back instantly. but they don't do that, because it would be too easy, lame and boring
>>
>>64579062
>>64579243

>>64583148
what do you think of In a Priest-Driven Ambulance?
>>
>>64583184
Not him, but it's their second best album, next to the Soft Bulletin, which, sorry, is their best album.
>>
>>64583148

I've heard these two and Soft Bulletin and honestly, I'd much rather listen to Embryonic and The Terror anyday. If Embryonic is a turning point for the band then unless their earlier stuff is goddamn amazing, they're at a peak currently.

if this actually happen i would be really upset that Wayne's bullshit ruined what the rest of the band had going on embryonic and the terror

I don't understand how people can like boring indie pop like the Soft Bulletin.
>>
>>64586530
Yeah good music sure sucks amirite? I'd rather listen to the sound of my ceiling fan droning on and on. Then I can have cool hipster cred since no one listens to ceiling-fan core like me.
>>
>>64586500
it's raw and unrefined, and it's constantly throwing new ideas out to either wither and fade into other ideas or bloom into full-fledged songs. it feels like music in its embryonic form, almost underproduced, a love letter to blind invention and exploding with limitless possibility

also you're a pleb

Embryonic, 7 Skies H3, and The Terror are great. Everything else is trash tho

I only really like In a Priest-Driven Ambulance through Yoshimi plus Peace Sword if I'm honest with myself. The plebbier, the better when it comes to the Flaming Lips. They're masters at making really good pop music, but when it comes to experimental music, there are much better bands than them.

and the lips are a better band
>>
>>64593765
the idea that Animal Collective are somehow "more challenging" than The Flaming Lips is hilariously stupid. The Lips have never, ever made something as utterly bullshit as Danse Manatee or Campfire Songs, and at their "most blandest" (which I'll take to mean most pop), comparing MPP and Yoshimi reveals The Lips to be far more accomplished musicians and songwriters.
