Lightyears ahead of its time

The production on this blew me out of the water when I listened to the demo cd at the record shop back in Chicago. I never bought the album on CD but being so young when this cake out the electronic blend with the different genres was striking like something I had never heard before. I was confused by the album cover and the names and still don’t know what the concept of the story or album is . To this day this album can still bring me back to that record shop listening to the album and feeling these fresh lush sounds with beautiful lyrics. It seemed bizarre back then but had shed like fine wine and remember the exact store and the exact floor and spot I was when I first heard it. I never heard my friends talk about the Band until years later but it was cool to have that sense of discovery back in the simpler MySpace days before social media the internet took over and finding something novel on your own has a satisfaction to it. The album cover looked like some Japanese art work combined with the name and I thought it would be something some Japanese classic rock band based on reading The Flaming Lips on the top white sticker CD cover seal. If you haven’t done so add listening to the song Do You Realize to your library. Perhaps the most transcendtsl song of the decade lyrically and sonically.
Plagiarism

The song fight test is so obviously plagiarized from Cat Stevens song father and Son it is unbearable to listen to.
Even though I like a lot of the stuff put out by flaming lips, the plagiarism of Fight Test really calls into question the bands integrity since they even knew before releasing it it sounded a lot like cat Stevens song
I think they are a lucky cat Stevens even gives them any money for the song
The mix is a little off

They mess around with the mix of the original songs in the Itunes (remastered) version and I regret buying it in this format.
My love for The Flaming Lips

I bought this album, and despite it not having that comforting blue label on this page, or on the downloaded files themselves, I have found that the album is indeed Mastered for iTunes (or equivalently mastered for digital lossy format). Anywhoo, GREAT album and my introduction to the Flaming Lips, always been a favorite.
Good
