Description
I'm not really a vinyl collector so i bought this one and played it once to add it to my library. So this is a mint condition but opened item.
As pictured, the shrink wrap is still on - it has a nice sticker with a tracks listed.
There were two versions produced - this is the rarer one with the Doctor Who sample on Ke$ha's 2012 (You Must be Upgraded)
On paper, The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends — a Record Store Day round-up of various collaborations conducted over the past year– doesn’t appear to be the next official chapter in the band’s ever-evolving history so much as a tribute to Coyne’s skills of diplomacy, like his hyperactive Twitter feed brought to life. The internet may have splintered the pop monoculture into myriad musical streams, but Heady Fwendsprovides as inclusive a congregation of the entire, circa-2012 under-to-overground spectrum as you can muster in a single album, with a guest list that spans top-40 stars (Ke$ha, Chris Martin) and noise-rock extremists (Lightning Bolt), anarchic avant guardians (Nick Cave, Yoko Ono) and chilled-out indie new-schoolers (Bon Iver, Neon Indian), electronic experimentalists (Prefuse 73) and hip-hop heroes-cum-children’s-television hosts (Biz Markie).
Their fresh influx of ideas onThe Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends creates new flavor profiles for the band's loopy psychedelic slurry:
Ke$ha spews shards of sass over robot rocker ''2012'' and Cold[lay's Chris Martin's dreamy falsetto melts into the meditative dirge ''I Don't Want You to Die,'' while Bon Iver's ''Ashes in the Air'' casts its own woozy spell. Frontman Wayne Coyne remains a singular ringmaster, but here's proof that even mad geniuses need Fwends.
