VINYL FORMAT.

At War With The Mystics is personal, political, psychedelic and powerful pop.

Customer Reviews




José Ãngel BalmoriEl nuevo disco de The Flaming Lips es una extraño artefacto sonoro, de sonido mucho más sintético que su placa interior y con una filiación fantástica que de un tiempo acá viene siendo su sello particular, At War With The Mystics es uno de esos discos que descoloca y sorprende simultamente, descoloca por su inclinación progresiva y sorprende por el tratamiento futurista de su producción. En este universo místico conviven Marvin Gaye, Prince, Yes y Devo e incluso T.Rex en formato torcido. Con todo un disco sobresaliente que seguirá dando vigencia a uno de los últimos grupos de rock/pop que permanecen mirando hacia el frente, en definitiva, rock & roll sci fi circus.




Nick LaRoccaI received this album as a Christmas present, and, being the huge F-Lips fan and vinyl collector that I am, I was totally delighted. This may be pricey in terms of being on vinyl, but it is colored, and well worth the price. The sound is as brilliant as the bright plastic cyan and orange, no compact disc or mp3 could ever compare to it. This is hands down the best vinyl I own (In a collection that includes Led Zeppelin IV, Dark Side of The Moon, and Black Flag's Everything Went Black, that's saying a lot!)
