I agree, Clouds Taste Metallic is fucking brilliant; it's probably my favourite Lips album.  I love how they got past that sound though, because their later work is wonderful and interesting as well.

Azathoth:
Spiritualized.  Very layered psychedelic stuff with lots of orchestration.

Saturday:
the most-similar sounding albums to 'soft bulletin' stuff its imho the first 2 mercury rev albums, 'yerself is steam' and 'boces'. great, very psychedelic indie-rock. VERY different to deserterīs song and all that.

McTaggart:
For some reason Soft Bulletin makes me think Odelay. I haven't actually listened to Soft Bulletin in so long that I'm not sure if there really is any similarity at all, but yeah, Beck - Odelay. Listen to it now.

--- Quote from: ripvanwormer ---Neutral Milk Hotel - completely different from the Lips, but a similar kind of sad, hopeful, triumphant set of songs that the Flaming Lips specialize in. The Aeroplane Over the Sea is one of the best albums of all time.

YES.

I'd say people who enjoy FL will generally have atleast SOME appreciation for Neutral milk hotel.
What a great band, man...
I'd say the song "Two-headed Boy" might be a good one to start out with. My dad played this song for me, and automatically got me hooked.
