The Flaming Lips: New Album The Terror Out April 1

THE TERROR OUT APRIL 1

The Flaming Lips

After setting the world record for most shows in a day, releasing a 24-hour song, selling 4-track gummy skulls and much, much more, The Flaming Lips have announced plans to release a brand new studio album, the follow-up to 2009’s Embryonic. The Terror will be released April 1 via Bella Union and Warner Bros, Pitchfork reports.

The nine-track effort was produced by the band and Dave Fridmann. The band will release “Sun Blows Up Today”, a non-album track, on February 3.

“Why would we make this music that is The Terror— this bleak, disturbing record…??”, Wayne Coyne said in a press release. “I don’t really want to know the answer that I think is coming: that WE were hopeless, WE were disturbed and, I think, accepting that some things are hopeless… or letting hope in one area die so that hope can start to live in another?? Maybe this is the beginning of the answer.”
