It's a fact that The Flaming Lips have been out there since 1983. They released their first album in 1986. And nobody knew who they were until they released “She Don’t Use Jelly” from their sixth album, 1993’s Transmissions From The Satellite Heart. The expectations were high for the follow up, 1995’s Clouds Taste Metallic. This was a band that was finally due to have an album be a real commercial success. And, of course, the album did what the previous six Flaming Lips albums did…it sold almost nothing, and the Lips remained not much more than a curiosity. And it would take another four years and two albums before the band started to become as popular as they deserved to be, starting with The Soft Bulletin in 1999. Leave it to The Flaming Lips to take the long way to stardom.
As for Clouds Taste Metallic, the album was immediately deemed a failure and a dark spot on the band’s legacy. But…over the years, as they have become better understood by fans and critics, it turns out that this was actually a pretty good record. Yes, there were three failed singles…but we’ve since learned that this is not a singles band. As it turns out, Clouds Taste Metallic is a very steady and very good album by a band that was just discovering their powers. And a band that had not yet been found by their audience. The best song here is “The Abandoned Hospital Ship”, but there are several tracks here that can win you over if you can be patient. There is nothing bad here…it’s a very consistent work that has lots of hidden rewards, and it foreshadows nicely their more adventurous future work. Well worth hearing and sadly underrated.
