The Flaming Lips have a new album - Embryonic.
And their new video is quite a package itself. Find it here on NME.com
As per usual, Wayne Coyne gets all Prisoner ~ more on that below ~ with the bubble, recruits the masses to get naked on bikes and births them from a birthing fur-bubble in the woods of Portland, OR. Obviously.
But what wasn't was the song... I have to say that I like the sound of this Watching The Planets number. I've noticed The Lips from quite a distance since their 2002 Yoshimi smash. It's just that Wayne always has too much noise going on. Not that this track doesn't... Awe, hell. It's probably just the boobies and penises distracting me from noticing. Hooray!
So this is the intro to The Prisoner.
It's an all-time favorite of mine and my lady's. It's a BBC sci-fi thriller TV series from the 60's staring Patrick McGoohan ~ armed with his most distinctly classic speech pattern ~ who's trying to figure out where the hell is is and who the hell's in charge. And he ain't no number.
There is also a six-episode miniseries set to air on AMC this month... starting this Sunday actually. And while my fist is shaking in their direction... Ian McKellen will star as Number 2 and that James Caviezel ~ dude who was Jesus for Mel Gibson ~ will reprise McGoohan's role as number 6.
And Christopher Nolan ~ Momento and a couple of those Batman movies ~ has been rumored for a film adaptation. Don't fuck it up dude.
