Blonde SuperFreak Steals the Magic Brain (NSFW & WTF)

From the land of WTF comes this music (?) video, by Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips, Blonde SuperFreak Steals the Magic Brain.

It stars Moby and Miley Cyrus, and is basically about what happens when Moby asks a blonde superfreak to steal Miley Cyrus’s brain – which isn’t even hers to begin with.

Here’s what Coyne has to say about this bizarro psychedelic freakout:

The video story is something like this: Moby is an evil, power-hungry cult leader. He wants the world’s most valuable (according to our story) psychedelic supernatural possession… John F. Kennedy’s brain….the brain contains the original formula for the drug LSD!!!

Miley Cyrus has the magic brain!!! And Moby enlists a nympho Manson girl-type blonde superfreak to go steel the brain from Cyrus.

She steals the brain from Cyrus while Cyrus is still in bed in a drug-induced coma. Cyrus finally wakes up and is mega-pissed that her BRAIN has been stolen. She enlists a burned-faced Santa and a lesbian Bigfoot ( that are hovering in a nearby spaceship) to hunt down the blond superfreak that stole her brain. They have a relentless pursuit, all the while Cyrus laments the loss of her magic brain and Moby gains powerful rainbows from hell. In the end, the blond superfreak kills Santa and Bigfoot and a baby mole ends up with the brain…”

Oh yeah. And the Flaming Lips are disguised as rainbows, mushrooms and flowers watching from the sky room where a giant diamond explosion happens.

NSFW for nudity, language and, most of all, ‘mouth lashes’.

  1. hmmmmm………you know that movie “The Ring”, well…. I’m not sure if this a sequal to “The Holy Mountain” or what this is.

    1. hey! jodorowsky is good.

      this was more like a crappy pastiche of richard kern crossed what something like dragnet made out hippy parties to be.

  2. Slow day at Daft Punk studios. I only say that because this film is so obviously French.

    Oh, Billy Ray, whay yo li’l gurl at?

  3. This is the most abstract, progressive, avant-garde, surrealist, absurdist mindfuck video I’ve seen in a long, long time… And I hated it.

    “The fact that no one understands you does not make you an artist” – Someone smarter than Wayne Coyne

  4. Just more exploitation of the female form, typical of free love Sixties psychedelic hippy shit. It ain’t art, just attention seeking.

  5. I think it is really cool.
    Thanks for the link.
    I was mesmerized. I may not have blinked the entire time.
    Quite cool.

  6. As much as I love naked blondes – this was just crap.

    A few questions remain: there are a few seconds that were shot on a surprisingly authentic-looking ST:TOS bridge set. Where’d that come from? What’s that white stuff dripping out of Miley Cyrus’ mouth at the beginning? And is it responsible for her awful potty-mouth? Why is it that so many musicians, if you put a mic in front of them, every other word out of their mouth is “fuck”?

    1. The flaming lips made a movie called “Chrismas on Mars” and the set you mention looks very similar to what they built for that movie.

  7. It’s really sad that miles thought she was doing something rebellious and cool, instead she just looks stupid and misled.

  8. This sort of thing was IT in the 70’s. We would have spent days debating what it meant.

    Sadly, most of it was as meaningless as mainstream film.

    Nice to see somebody pushing against the limits, though.

  9. Contrary to what some are suggesting, there is nothing “psychedelic” about this dissonant vomit. It looks more like an ignorant interpretation of psychedelics by someone who’s never had a true psychedelic experience. Luckily, this experience cannot be exploited so easily by pop stars, since the experience itself detaches the experiencer from material ambitions and pursuits of the ego. Besides, true psychedelic explorers would never mix cocktails of prescription narcotics with sacred medicine. Oh, and JFK…why? Why the fuck would the formula to LSD be in the brain of some overhyped dead politician? Is Wayne just trying to piss off everyone now? If you need further help distinguishing authentic psychedelic artists from exploitative gimmick-whores, just look at the art and listen to the music (Alex Grey, Pink Floyd, Tool), profound, transcendent, and timeless…not just random weirdness begging for shock value.

      1. Yes, Tool.
        If you haven’t seen them live in the past decade or so, then I can understand your confusion, but their live performance is one of the most psychedelic, mind-expanding, bewildering experiences you can have without drugs. Of course, if you add a pinch of psilocybin or a drop of LSD, it becomes transcendent.

        I realize a lot of synth-philes don’t know this, but Tool uses quite a bit of synthesizers. The guitarist, Adam Jones has an Access Virus Indigo and a Virus B that he plays with a Taurus-style foot controller. The drummer, Danny Carrey has a custom modular behind his kit. Certain interludes and transitions are nothing but droning psychedelic synths with hypnotic visuals and lights.

        Not to mention, they’re in cahoots with Alex Grey, the most psychedelic visual artist of our generation.

  10. Don’t quit your day jobs folks…I actually work in film and will be keeping this bookmarked as a demonstration of how expensive camera + star talent does not automatically yield quality results.

    Next week, Bruce Willis, Scarlett Johanssen and Shia LaBoeuf form an EDM supergroup and have a showdown with Steve Aoki and Afrojack in a cake factory, which is then nuked from orbit by Lady Gaga. It’s the only way to be sure.

  11. People in 2014 can tell the difference between something mind-expanding, something not-mind-expanding-but-fun-and-wacky, and something that’s just cynical and exploitative. This one is number #3. If only there was a name for films that feature naked girls, bad acting, and everybody being fundamentally used and unhappy. Oh yeah, there is a name for that.

  12. You know it’s going to be good when the creator’s synopsis has to spell everything out exactly or else none of it makes sense.
