message: GUYS! OK, THIS IS REALLY FREAKY
THE GENRE OF THIS ALBUM IS LISTED AS INDIE, BUT THE LABEL IS LISTED AS WARNER BROS! A MAJOR LABEL!
The disturbing paradox: How can a band be on a major label but still be indie?
Response to above statement:
Being an indie band doesn't mean they're necessarily on an indie label. DUH! People that think that are stupid. Indie is actually a genre of music and there are certain styles of music that are considered indie. Indie music just tends to be more underground and not mainstream at all. What label they're on has nothing to do with it.
Response to the response:
But the use of 'indie' is absurdly misleading as a GENRE of music. The music being 'underground' does not correlate closely with its genre, and it's arguable whether this album is 'underground' at all, whatever that means. The album needs to be re-classified as 'psychedelic rock' and 'space rock'. 86.135.94.80 23:54, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

message: No one has mentioned that some of the songs seem to display a loose concept for the album.  I don't feel qualified to discuss this, so perhaps someone that has scrutinized the lyrics more can point out the connections?  --MM 00:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Could you please site them for the article? The fact that you yourself found them doesn't help the article at all. chainy 04:28, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

message: I found no evidence in the cited article that the album cover is a photo of Neal Cassady. I am removing the reference to Neal Cassady, as there is no mention of the real name of the subject in the original LIFE article. Anyone who can find proof that the subject of the photo is Neal Cassady is welcome to correct me.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chainy (talk • contribs) 04:18, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

message: Don't know whether it makes sense or not to define the 'definite' track order. But as there are claims that 5.1 version would be the one I would like to note that in many sources the vinyl version running order is the 'right' one. For instance in Pitchfork.tv documentary Steven Drozd states that Sleeping on the Roof should be the last song on the album. Also when performing the album live, the Lips have not been using the 5.1 version order but the vinyl release running order.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jarkesia (talk • contribs) 14:35, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
