Same for most people and there are a few duds for sure but some of it is absolutely sublime. Reminds me of Pink Floyd circa '68-71 regarding it's organic sound.

What are the best Flaming Lips albums?

I've listened to Yoshomi Battles Pink Robots and I think it's half decent, what other ones would be good to go for?

Get yourself In a Priest Driven Ambulance....if you have heard Yoshimi, then getting this one will give you both sides of the band. They stared as a psychedelic alt band and slowly molded their way to the electro pop of Yoshimi. If you like what you hear then you should just go ahead and get the rest of their albums since they are all good.

The Soft Bulletin is a great listen if a bit overly quirky in places, and Transmissions From The Satelleite Heart is a classic.
