Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips explains how the band's psychedelic vinyl is pressed.

"Many thanks to A+R for letting us take over their plant!!! Pressing vinyl like this slows the process down a lot. We hope you guys dig the results. Thanks to Daniel Huffman and Zac Cox for the 12 hour days!!" -The Flaming Lips

In the comments: "The presses and stampers are actually designed to be pressed with a paper center label. That amongst other things is the reason why all their records are coming out pre-warped. "
