Oklahoma City-based psychedelic rockers The Flaming Lips release today their first-ever double-album “Embryonic,” which promises to make the world a little more weird – but in a good way.

Also, red dirt rocker Brandon Jenkins, who grew up in Tulsa but now lives in Austin, Texas, releases his new album, “Brothers of the Dirt,” which as the title suggests, features collaborations with fellow red dirt artists, including Cody Canada, Stoney LaRue and Mike McClure.

“Drag Me to Hell,” Sam Raimi’s (the “Spider-Man” movies) return to the horror genre, is among the new films on DVD this week.

In books, Irish author Eoin Colfer (”Artemis Fowl”) picks up where the late, great Douglas Adams left off with “And Another Thing…,” a sixth book in the legendary “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” series.
