Review by Jason Ankeny
The Flaming Lips' first-ever major label release is the three-track EP release Wastin' Pigs, which leads off with the single "Talkin' 'Bout the Smiling Deathporn Immortality Blues (Everyone Wants to Live Forever)," a taste of the upcoming Hit to Death in the Future Head album. It also includes a medley of Echo and the Bunnymen's "All That Jazz" and "Happy Death Men;" the highlight, however, is "Jets (Cupid's Kiss vs. the Psyche of Death)," a rough demo which may rank as Wayne Coyne's most beautiful and emotionally stark moment to date.
