The Flaming Lips "At War With The Mystics"

First here's a note from contactmusic on how President Bush provided inspiration for the new album:

Experimental rockers THE FLAMING LIPS have hailed US president GEORGE W BUSH as the inspiration for their forthcoming album AT WAR WITH THE MYSTICS - because they detest him so much.

The Oklahoma trio are so furious with the way their country is being run, they have no qualms about releasing their most political record to date.

Frontman WAYNE COYNE reveals, "I guess we've found it hard not to get a little frustrated with America.

"There's this fundamentalist, right wing Christian president and you can only stand there so long and be tolerant. Sometimes you just want to say, 'Jeez, you people are retarded.' I don't want people to think of us as Zen masters sitting up on the mountain not understanding what's going on."

And more info including tracklisting from Aversion.com:

The Flaming Lips have laid all their plans for their upcoming album on the table.

The pop act revealed the track listing for its upcoming At War with the Mystics, which is due out April 4 from Warner Bros. The follow-up to 2002’s Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (Warner Bros.) was produced by Dave Fridmann (Sleater-Kinney), and features 12 tracks. The album’s lead single, “The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song,” will hit stores March 7, though the act’s already made “The W.A.N.D.” available through digital music retailers.
