have you managed to listen to zaireeka? i managed to find a stereo mixdown just because i don't think i will ever have the opportunity to play all 4 cds at once...and i must say it is a brilliant album.
I've only listened to the one Flaming Lips album, all though I own them all. I listened to Soft Bulletin or something while camping once with my sister but it was more of background music and I only spun it once so it didn't get a fair chance. From what I've heard At War With The Mystics is their pop album, so I think it would be fitting to put it on a list meant to introduce someone into more bands. I was hoping with many of these artists that she would like, and then go explore their other stuff and give it the light of day- maybe even love it.

Awwsugar, definitely I will get you a link. Do you want me to pick which album I give you the link to? If not just send a PM with the name of it and I should be able to get it to you lickity splickity.
