Gummi-skull music!

Hirsty! Wayne Coyne and friends of The Flaming Lips have decided to release four new songs on a USB drive that has been encased in a life-sized brain made of “edible gummy bear stuff,” which in turn has been placed inside a life-sized Gummi-skull. $150 may seem too much for some, but these are apparently going to be quite limited. This is – until now – the most absurd release of 2011. Whatever works we guess…

The Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne said, that he wanted to release the band’s new songs in unorthodox ways this year, rather than working on a full album. I guess this presentation shouldn’t come as a shock after we have learned that Coyne was making posters with his own blood or hand-delivering unique record pressings.

Below you can stream all four of the songs that were included in the USB: ‘Drug Chart’, ‘In Our Bodies Out of Our Heads’, ‘Walk With Me’, and ‘Hillary’s Time Machine Machine’. Very Flaming Lips.
