THE FLAMING LIPS

Psychedelic rock still has a place in the music scene as this Oklahoma band has proved with acclaimed albums like The Soft Bulletin and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots while providing offbeat release methods (Zaireeka spanning four discs and played on four players simultaneously or a seven-pound gummy skull for an EP) and oddball moments on stage with giant balloons and hamster balls.
