Jan 25, 2017I am so hooked on this album. I was a little reticent about purchasing it when I saw the initial reviews but I liked it immediately and it keeps drawing me back in. It is an excellent blend of Yoshimi melodicism and Terror experimentalism. My first 2017 purchase and I believe this will make my top 10 at the end of year. If you like Flaming Lips you will not be disappointed.

May 14, 2017Focusing their entire attention on creating a unique enveloping sonic atmosphere within this rock setting, which this band has almost always set out to do, paid off in the end with a beautiful synthetic sound despite an overall absence of distinction. My Score: 135/180 (Solid) = 7.5/10

Jan 22, 2017The Flaming Lips provide some good ethereal, spacious psychedelic rock on this record, though they don't really sound anything like a band, more of a vehicle for singer Wayne Coyne.

Oct 18, 2017The latest from The Flaming Lips is perhaps their purest embrace of the psychetronic sound they've been honing over the last two decades, shedding most remaining conventions that might have misled listeners into thinking they're listening to a rock album. Whether that's a good or bad thing depends on how run your tastes.

Feb 22, 2017A couple of lesser tracks bloat into shapeless abstraction, but overall this is a sonically lavish and formally bold reinvention.

Feb 21, 2017It amounts to one of the more dense, layered, anxious, and fun things they have released in a long time.

The WireJan 27, 2017Oczy Mlody fluently balances three decades of untamed experimentation with the poppier sensibilities they've gained along the way. [Feb 2017, p.51]
