Flaming Lips Stars Form Electric Wurms

. (Prog) Wayne Coyne and Steven Drodz have unveiled a side-project called Electric Wurms. The band is made up of the Flaming Lips colleagues plus all four members of Nashville psychedelic rock band Linear Downfall: Charlee Cook, Chance Cook, Will Hicks and Dom Marcoaldi. They'll launch their debut album Musik, Die Schwer Zu Twerk on August 18 via Bella Union.

A statement explains: "It all began in the 70s when someone invented the right kind of acid that could make you fly. Overly-optimistic freaks began flying into outer space in spaceships made of futuristic super-metal - but before long they didn't even need ships.

"They became the ships, and called themselves Electric Wurms. Before they died they sent back to Earth a sonic bible of discoveries and failures. It was an unsolvable mystery of frequencies and rhythms. more on this story
