The Flaming Lips' Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots was released in 2002 and is the band's best-selling album, certified Gold in the US with over 700,000 albums sold. The album features one of the band's most iconic songs - "Do You Realize??" - plus the singles "Fight Test," "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell," and the title track.

The 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition 5 LP Vinyl box set includes the original album, B-sides, demos, and radio sessions, and other assorted rarities. There are 56 tracks on the vinyl box set, of which over 30 are previously unreleased, and 40 that will be available on vinyl for the first time.

It's a completists journey to be sure, but housed as it is in a sturdy slipcase plastered over with Coyne's fantastic artwork, the set feels as if that period in the band has been thoroughly encapsulated... the sound of these pressings are top notch and not one of the records came out of the shrink with any visible warping.
