The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I had heard about their plan a while back and expected it to be interesting, but this is just...
Honestly, I can't believe any band would have the gall to try and sell this garbage, and do it with a straight face. Here are two examples of the auditory atrocity they committed. As a result, my lone Rollins and Peaches CDs are in the garbage. Can anyone out there reasonably justify this trash? |

It was an experiment. Not all experiments are successful.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
i love it.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I thought it was kind of cool. I would prefer a band to cover songs in a different way, instead of making a straight playthrough.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
:lol: at the OP
Cannot wait to see them play this live in it's entirety on New Year's Eve. |
Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
Listening to the first minute or so of Money, I don't think the drummer has ever attempted to play an odd-time tempo in his life...and he sure didn't practice before they hit record.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
Didn't like "Money", but "Breathe" had me hooked the whole way through.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
Didn't care for these. The Easy Dub Allstars did a reggae version call Dub Side of the Moon a few years back that was good.

wow, I do not think my ears will ever recover!

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
The Breathe one i loved right off the bat but the Money one took a few listens before i liked it.I love both bands so this is really cool to me.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
Money is the worst song on Dark Side, so the cover isn't all that bad.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
The best thing about the Flaming Lips is how EASY it is to ignore them. :up:

And just like that, all subsequent musical opinions of yours are immediately discounted 90%.
As for reimagining Floyd, I'll take the Bad Plus's jazzy rendition of Comfortably Numb: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ar30KyQFnIc&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ar30KyQFnIc&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> |
Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I'm also in the "Money is the least song on DSOTM" camp.
|
Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I liked both of the clips you posted. :shrug:
Not a huge fan of DSOTM so this seems kinda cool to me. |
Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I don't see how you guys can think "Money" is so slight when the phenomenally boring "Us And Them" is on the same album.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
I hate 95% of all covers so I am not surprised I don't care for Lips' versions.

Re: The Flaming Lips musically defecate on "Dark Side of the Moon"
Sure, "Money" has been played to death on the radio, but that doesn't make "Us And Them" any less sleep inducing. It's the only track on the album I skip regularly.

Suprmallet skips over "Us and Them" and I skip over "Money" whenever I listen to the album. "Money" doesn't even really seem to fit within the album. It feels like it should be on something else. |
