The Flaming Lips and Miley Cyrus are continuing their weird sonic friendship with an upcoming collaborative LP. The seven-track album was co-written by the psychedelic rock band and pop star during the past year and is currently being mixed by Lips members Wayne Coyne and Steven Drozd, Billboard reports . Coyne said of the set, “She does the pop thing so great, so it still feels pop, but a slightly wiser, sadder, more true version, Some of it reminds me of Pink Floyd and Portishead.” The unlikely partnership began in early 2014, when Cyrus – a huge Lips fan – tweeted a birthday greeting to Coyne. In response, the frontman sent his phone number and the two realized they shared a surreal approach to art and life.
