Today’s catch comes from the legendary band, The Flaming Lips. Earlier this month on Record Store Day, The Flaming Lips released a brand new album called King’s Mouth: Music And Songs. However, it was only released as a 4,000 piece limited edition gold vinyl pressing. The band will release a digital copy of the LP on 7/19, which will include today’s catch “All For The Life Of The City“. From The Flaming Lips press release:

“The record will feature 12 new tracks and the music will be connected by narration provided by the Clash’s Mick Jones.

The album is also just one aspect of a much larger project from the Flaming Lips and frontman Wayne Coyne. The music on King’s Mouth parallels that in Coyne’s immersive art installation of the same name, in which viewers crawl into a large metallic head to experience a music-driven LED light show. The new album will also be accompanied by a book, King’s Mouth: Immerse Heap Trip Fantasy Experience, which Coyne wrote and illustrated.

‘The King’s Mouth immersive/child-like qualities are born from the same spark and womb as The Flaming Lips live performances,” Coyne said of the overall project. “The King’s Mouth adventure was made for humans of all sizes, ages, cultures, and religions.’”

You can listen to today’s catch “All For The Life Of The City” by The Flaming Lips in the YouTube player below. Good things!
