So I watched Fearless Freaks last night, it's a pretty great film, IMHO... but it really shows that the band peaked with this record...
...and maybe bits of the Soft Bulletin, though I think that record should be almost considered a Stephen Drozed solo album feautring Wayne on vocals... and Yoshimi... well lest said... anyhow by the time the film gets past Zaireeka (which is actually their best record, but who the hell can listen to it anymore then once a year or so???) it's lost steam and peters into wayne and his rather unconvincing blood on forehead gag that he has really murdered at this stage... actually one thing you really get from the film is how annoying Wayne Coyne must be in real life... like yeah he can be an amazing artist... but jeez can he bang on...
anyhow really interesting film, Drozd drug stuff is really startingly frank and honest, you gots to respect... their early music videos and artwork are still really really brilliant
