Are you ready for some experimental brain teasing? Well, The Flaming Lips and Bon Iver have teamed up for some questionable, but certainly interesting music! "Ashes" in the Air" is the first single released by the collaborators, and, well...it's just very interesting. Perhaps even deserving the description of "weird as fuck." I should probably just leave it at that?
This all comes in anticipation of Record Store Day, for which The Flaming Lips will be releasing a number of collaborations.
