Preview The Flaming Lips' Embryonic


Available this weekend on Stephen Colbert's Web site, you can stream Embryonic, the upcoming album from The Flaming Lips, which isn't due for release until October 13. I'm listening to it right now--first track "Convinced of the Hex" is an interesting blend of the band's usual space-age effects and a lot of lo-fi distortion. As is the second track "The Sparrow Looks Up at the Machine," although it's more laid back. "Evil" is a haunting and lovely ballad with a sparse arrangement of mostly keyboards. Check it out today (I think it comes down tomorrow).
