The main function of the national party convention is, simply, to confirm that particular party's nominee for the presidential race.

Entertainment > Album Reviews Album reviews: Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots, by The Flaming Lips
3 of 3

Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots is psychedelia in its purest form, a veritable orgy of sound and genius. It blows your mind starting with the high-energy first track, Fight Test.
