Amazon.com essential recording
The great thing about Flaming Lips records is that each new
one renders all its predecessors obsolete. Clouds Taste
Metallic continues the fine Lips tradition of quantum
improvement. It's an elaborately orchestrated masterwork of
crashing cymbals, chiming bells, tinkling pianos, buzzing
guitars, chirping birds, humming projectors, exploding
cities, cheering crowds, and vocals stacked to the
stratosphere. Each song goes gleefully over the top, but
every ridiculous element somehow seems just right. While the
carnival atmosphere and silly song titles distract you from
band leader Wayne Coyne's serious ambition, the album's
power bubbles up from hidden depths and eventually
overwhelms you. The smoldering packages in "Lightning
Strikes the Postman" and the sleeping millions dreaming
about killing the boss in "Bad Days" are funny, but they're
also unnerving, and the band builds a whole song out of the
sad truth that "Evil Will Prevail." The sense that this
isn't all just fun and games makes happier moments such as
the cosmic orgasm of "When You Smile" sound like something
much more than a hippie's wet dream. This album isn't music
to take drugs to; it's the drug itself. --Tim Quirk

Since 1996, Rabid Neurosis has been dedicated to releasing
the highest-quality, cutting-edge MP3s in the online music
community.  With an average of nearly 6000 releases per
year, RNS is untouchable both in terms of quantity and
quality of releases.  Many of the largest releases in the
music world were released by RNS long before their official
street date.  We pride ourselves on ensuring that our
releases encompass every musical genre, from pop, to
hip-hop, to jazz, to house, to alternative, and back again.

Do you think you have what it takes to be part of Team RNS?
RNS is currently looking for:

- T3+/40GB+ siteops running a *nix-based OS
- cable/ADSL+ rippers on the east coast or in the EU
willing to do store pickups every Tuesday morning
- individuals with access to music prior to its official
retail release date
- hardware suppliers
- individuals with a skill useful to the group -- we're
always looking for new ways to better RNS

If you fall into any of these categories, please ask to
speak with a group senior in #rns on EFnet.
