Brainwasher featuring members of Flaming Lips announce debut album, 39 Lightyears from Heaven

Along with the announcement of their debut full-length, Brainwasher share the album's lead single, "At Least It Beats an Actor". The accompanying music video was directed by longtime Flaming Lips collaborators Wayne Coyne and Blake Studdard.

"It’s freakier than a Diddy party," say the directors. "It's louder and wetter than a thunderstorm, more suspenseful than the Golden Gate Bridge, scarier than an El Salvadorian prison, more influential than religion. Who needs Habeas Corpus when you have this video? Did we understand the assignment or fail so spectacularly the assignment changed?"

For the better part of 15 years, Matthew Duckworh Kirksey and Tommy McKenzie have been touring the world, sharing the stage with the likes of Tame Impala, Devo, Dinosaur Jr., Modest Mouse, and Echo & the Bunnymen, all the while taking part in prestigious events such as Glastonbury, Osheaga, and Bonnaroo. They also appear on countless records, including Miley Cyrus’ Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz, The Flaming Lips’ American Head, Oczy Mlody, and Live At Red Rocks, as well as Stardeath and White Dwarfs’ Wastoid and The Birth, just to name a few.
