Customer Reviews
"Embryonic" can hardly still the best album by The Flaming Lips --- a wonderful wild crazy musical journey through 70 minutes of action and acid-rock landscapes. Then again, with song titles like "Aquarius Sabotage", "syringes Gemini", "Worm Mountain" and "Self-Esteem Virgo Broadcast" what we usually expect of this band unique and innovative? This group of Oklahoma Wayne Coyne brought me again and again with its affectionate Off-Kilter wonder brand of rock music, and"Embryo", if not for the faint of heart, is a wonderful result. Crank It Up, and bon voyage!
