A certain Flaming Lips album...?

Is there an album they made in which its a 4 disc set and requires all four to be played at once to get the full sound. And its different sounding everytime depending on when you start each cd.

Myabe im just makin stuff up, but i had heard about this a few times.

S'true. The album's called "Zaireeka".

It's pretty pointless, unless you're an elitist fan.

Didn't Tool do the same thing with their last album and wasn't everyone cumming all over how original it was? twats.

I say fair play to them for doing something different. Don't you ever get bored of mainsteam bands knocking out poorer versions of the same album over & over again?

No they just put it in a pretty box to try & deflect attention from how bad what was inside it was.

is there anyway you can dl (or can someone u/l) all four of the albums put together as one?

i dont have oink, and my computer is at the shop... so everything i d/l is just music onto an external HD

Guess again :laughing:

damn, you got there before me. I was gonna say, Oh, the irony... damn mods..

All four at once? While I applaud it's integrity-how are you supposed to listen to all four at once?

a different stereo in each corner of the room

I don't earn enough and that would mean four speakers and the acoustics would be fecked. Bloody egotistical artists..

Look on the bright side

At least it's not as complicated as this to set up..

Rumours first surfaced of some strange happenings in Oklahoma City during the late summer/early Autumn of 1996. Following the departure of Ronald Jones, Wayne Coyne had turned his hand to new sonic endeavours. Wayne had always wanted to experiment with multiple sound source recorded music, so he began to organise some little sound experiments. It began with a few tape recorders in the back room, and then evolved into getting 10 of his friends cars together to play yet more adventurous compositions before Wayne decided to go the whole hog and sit in that back room creating 40 tapes that would play together. The final result was eventually dubbed the 'Flaming Lips Parking Lot Experiment'. 40 cars were arranged to form a kind of wholly unusual soundsystem in a covered car parking space, and were then used to play out a strange, fluid 20 minute sound composition. Perhaps the best way to describe the actual sound that came from that kind of surreal orchestra is as being some how extra real. A sound so fluid and full that it was almost a tangible presence in the air...

Several instances of The Parking Lot Experiments followed during 1996 and 1997, as the band played several different compositions of music and found sound, using the tape decks from 30 to 40 cars carefully arranged in various parking lots around the US. Aside from a brief resurrection using car CD players at the Roskilde Festival in 1999,

Fúck yeah..give me two of those mixes. Again, if you do not seek, you will not find. releasing the stuff and asking us to pay a few sheckles for it id truly extracting the urine. BTW Yoshimi is a brilliant album srsly.

I don't like the flaming lips that much, but i've been after zaireeka for a while.
