The Flaming Lips have finally released their long-awaited film debut, Christmas On Mars: A Fantastical Film Freak-out Featuring The Flaming Lips. The film, which took over 7 years to complete, was directed by lead singer Wayne Coyne and stars members of the band as well as Adam Goldberg.

In this special, Wayne Coyne hosts a half hour of Current Music where he discusses the making of the film and soundtrack as well as giving our audience a look at clips from the movie, behind the scenes footage, and other inside thoughts on the themes of the film.

The New York Times wrote that Christmas On Mars is "destined for cult status. Forget the plot, it's about textures: black and white images with psychedelic bursts; dashes of David Lynch, the '70s midnight movie Dark Star and 2001; an echo of The Wizard of Oz; and in a riff on maternity, maybe an iota of The Matrix."
