The Flaming Lips have announced their new album, The Teardrop Throbs, which will be released on January 22 on Jack White's Third Man Records. This marks a significant transition for the band, as it is their first album without core member Steven Drozd since 1991 and their first indie album in 37 years.
The lead single from the album, 'God Will Control The Werewolves,' is out now. The song is a psych-pop ballad that features soaring strings and fuzzed-out lead guitar. The lyrics were inspired by an adventure with frontman Wayne Coyne's young sons under the moonlight.
The album also features a song called 'Ego Tripping At The Gates Of Hell Part Two,' which is sure to excite fans of the band. The Flaming Lips will be touring in support of the album, with dates scheduled for Nashville, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and London.
The Teardrop Throbs is a highly anticipated release, and fans are eager to hear the band's new sound without Steven Drozd. As reported by Stereogum, the album is available for pre-order now.
