Perennial cult indie rockers The Flaming Lips have revealed details about their followup to 2002's much acclaimed Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. At War With the Mystics is planned to be in stores on April 4th in the US and the 3rd in the UK.

The first single "The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song" is said to be influenced by Queen's opus "Bohemian Rhapsody" and will be released in the UK on March 7th.

We were perfectly able to conquer the challenges Queen presented, so Steven [Drozd] continued doing these strange vocal arrangements of him singing into a microphone 30 times or something. We took that vocal treatment and made a song out of it. It ends up being a self-empowering thing,almost like an MC5 thing, but it's not talking about external things. It's talking about the power within you. What would you do if you had the power?

No other tracklisting has been revealed at this time.
