Flaming Lips - Embryonic

[smasha]

Listening again.

They've tried to emulate that dirty 60s drum sound and have failed.

Drums are too distorted and sound like they were recorded with a radioshack 5 dollar job.


Awful drum sound.

Pity,they have great ideas and songs.

Sounds better on headphones which is strange.

i'd say the majority of music is listed too through headphones these days. could be deliberate

 

[Suspense]

i reckon it sounds awesome, especially the drumming.

Yeah, same. They nail the fuzzy 70's garage band drum sound, which is obviously the sound they were going for and have used extensively in the past.

The Soft Bulletin for me.

Yoshimi for me.

And I like the Av too - what a beautiful smile.

 

[driver 8]

My order goes:

1. Yoshimi
2. Embryonic
3 The Soft Bulletin

They're all outstanding albums


Have not listened to enough of the older albums to rate them... and I don't care too much for At War with the Mystics
