What's your opinion of the Flaming Lips' remake of The Dark Side of the Moon?

Honestly, I thought they completely butchered it. Only Any Colour You Like sounded good.

BQ: Do you think that bands should remake whole albums, espeically "epic" ones?

    It sucked.

    To me, so called "remakes" out of the bands own songs is bogus. Seriously, it isn't that hard to take an essay and type it up in your own words. It's harder to think up the idea.

    To me, any band that remakes any other band (epic or epic fail) is a fail that signalizes they are too lazy to make up their own creative songs.......losers......

    I love the Flaming Lips, but yeah covering that specific album

    was a mistake. What's worse is that they recently announced a

    new years show where they'll play the album in its entirety.

    BQ: People will always compare covers to the originals and

    when a band covers another band's most famous album, well

    the opinions won't ever be good...

    Never heard it but generally remakes suck.

    Plus only Pink Floyd can properly do Pink Floyd.
