Throughout their career, band members have come and gone, but currently The Flaming Lips consist of original members Wayne Coyne (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Michael Ivins (bass, keyboards, backing vocals), along with members Steven Drozd (drums, guitar, keyboards, backing vocals), and Derek Brown (guitar, keyboards, backing vocals). Former members include Mark Coyne (lead vocals), Richard English (drums, keyboards, backing vocals), Nathan Roberts (drums), Jonathan Donahue (guitar, backing vocals), who went on to form Mercury Rev, Ronald Jones (guitar, backing vocals), and Kliph Scurlock (drums).
The Flaming Lips are known for their lush, multi-layered arrangements, spacey lyrics and bizarre song titles. They are also acclaimed for their elaborate live shows, which typically feature animal suits, puppets, streamers, video projections and complex stage light configurations.
In 2002, Q magazine named The Flaming Lips one of the "50 Bands to See Before You Die". In 2006, Oklahoma City named a street Flaming Lips Alley in their honor.
The group recorded several albums and EPs for Restless Records in the 1980s and early 1990s. After signing to Warner Brothers, they scored a #9 hit on the Billboard Alternative charts (and #55 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart) in 1994 with "She Don't Use Jelly". Although it would be their only hit single, the band has maintained critical respect and, to a lesser extent, commercial viability with sonically majestic albums such as 1995's Clouds Taste Metallic, 1999's The Soft Bulletin, 2002's Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots and 2006's At War with the Mystics. The Flaming Lips' 12th studio album, Embryonic, was released in October of 2009. A complete cover of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon was released in May 2010. The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends, their collaborative album which features artists like Ke$ha, Bon Iver, Nick Cave and Erykah Badu, was released on Record Store Day, April 2012.
Their next studio album, tentatively titled The Terror, will be released in January 2013.
Their song "Do You Realize??" is the official State Rock Song of Oklahoma.

Love this. The 1st time I listened to "Zaireeka" in 4 stereos this was the track that completely blew me away. Masterpiece.
@yawnandjokeoh
This track is great, you can hear Ronalds influence on Steven’s guitar playing, I’m surprised no one has made a video for this, perhaps using footage from Attack of the Killer Tomatoes?
@DreamInSongs
My favorite off the album
@meesterrain
y'know, despite the accuracy/inaccuracy of the syncing, I happen to think this is still interesting music. Which I'm sure was the aim of the Flaming Lips in the first place. (this is definitely my favorite track)
@sstaners1234
Starts out like a Doors song and goes into a killer mode.
@Leonelstudios27

@conditionone2320
@allensingley Hearing this brings back some memories. Thanks man. "Track number 7. This is CD number 1..."
@CanIUseYourJohn
(2:04) so righteous.
@Rojacasm
did you mix it so that each cd took up a different area of the stereo channel?
