They have a full Sgt Pepper tribute album coming in a couple months featuring Miley Cyrus called "With a Little Help From My Fwiends"

They shouldn't have started doing drugs again... That said, I do like Embryonic and some of The Terror. But I don't think they'll ever get back to the heights of The Soft Bulletin and Yoshimi.

Anyway, sounds like a cool ring mod, though I'm not a big fan of DBA stuff.

Anybody want to trace this one? Add exp control and clean blend and I'd be in ringmod heaven.

In Production Pedal cloning is not cool. Even here.
Go somewhere Else to spread that shit.

Sorry, I'm not well acquainted with the culture. :|

To be fair, they've implied that it will be out of production in 28 days.

I mean, I thought it wasn't a problem, seeing as there are plenty of clones of pedals that are still in production for the sake of modding them.

To bring the topic back to the pedal, I can't wait to see more demos of this, especially with something like a bass.

FTFY. Soft Bull. was the corpse expiring.

What would Ronald Jones do?

Leave the band before they started to suck.

Life lesson, that.

I shouldn't by this but the flip potential is fairly strong. Sounds kinda rad actually but I still think the Ring Stinger sounds better and is more flexible, this is way different though.

I feel like I'd be really excited about this for a couple of weeks and then probably never touch it again. I'll wait for everyone to buy this one, gripe about one or two things it's missing, and then DBA to reissue it down the line with those issues addressed and without that terrible band's name on it.
Price isn't bad on it though compared to their other stuff. Seems like they finally got the message that there's a gray area where if you lower your prices you actually make more money because more people will buy it.
Seriously over the lips. Everyone where I live is NUTS about them.

Yeah I'd probably end up in the same boat. Honestly never got in to any Flaming Lips album, never was a fan and I doubt I ever will be. My roommate went to their show at First Ave a month or two a go, said it was like a shitty pop concert.
