These days, The Flaming Lips are all about taking things to the logical extreme. 24-hour song aside, this is none more evident than that of their live show. Before their festival-closing set at Harvest on the Saturday prior, I had only read about the majesty of The Flaming Lips live set. Space bubble, confetti, confetti, confetti, giant vaginas - it all seems pretty impressive on paper, but no... Read More

Lead singer Beth Gibbons is a presence so shy she borders on the ethereal, hiding behind a curtain of blonde hair and delivering vocals that are at turns harsh and haunting. The Bristol trio record intermittently, leaving a gap of more than a decade between their last two albums, and tour only when they feel like it. They came out of... Read More
