The Flaming Lips have put a unique twist on one of the most famous riffs in the history of rock 'n' roll with their cover of Deep Purple's 'Smoke on the Water' that will be featured on the forthcoming tribute album 'Re-Machined.' The Lips are one of 10 bands contributing to the collection, which celebrates the 40th anniversary of the multi-platinum disc, 'Machine Head,' Deep Purple's best selling

The Flaming Lips have made a habit of combining music with inspired acts of lunacy, and they're getting closer to pulling off what might be the most inspired one yet: a musical stage adaptation of their 2002 album 'Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.'

'Waitin' for a Superman' Flaming Lips singer Wayne Coyne wrote they obviously superhero-inspired title ‘Waitin’ for a Superman’ in 1999 after his father passed away from cancer.

The Lips have assembled a roster of playmates equally rogue’s gallery and who’s who, ranging from the top of the pops to the furthest avant garde...

The Flaming Lips paid musical tribute to Radiohead and their fallen comrade, 33-year-old drum technician Scott Johnson, who was killed Saturday night when a structure above the band's stage in Toronto, Canada, collapsed just hours before they were set to perform. During the Lips' own Saturday night gig (as part of the NXNE festival also in Toronto), frontman Wayne Coyne led his band through a cove

The Flaming Lips are making more friends with their decision to make the Record Store Day release 'The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends' available to the masses.
