My Ion Truss

On only their third album, Minus Story complete the same transformation that took the Flaming Lips close to two decades, from sprawling punk psychedelia into a relatively concise form of indie rock that subsumes the band's early taste for noisy experimentation into surprisingly catchy pop songs. Highlights include the warped 1970s soft-rock vibe of "Pretty in the Light" and "Beast At My Side" and the clattering, Pavement-like rock of "Aaron."
