An elder wolf soon appears and after the animal seems to snap its neck, Lynch\u2019s face appears in the beast\u2019s open mouth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Lynch proceeds to narrate a weird story about a young boy named Tommy who receives a strange phone call that also unnerves his mother when he tries to pass her the phone. Flying Lotus constructs an ominous ambient soundscape around Lynch\u2019s tale and just as the story hits its peak, the producer unleashes a sharp trap drumbeat while Lynch says, \u201cJust then a man appeared, running frantically in the street, the man yelling, \u2018Fire is coming, fire is coming, fire is coming.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em>Flamagra<\/em>, which is available to <a href=\"https:\/\/flying-lotus.ffm.to\/Flamagra\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pre-order<\/a>, marks Flying Lotus\u2019 first studio album since 2014\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-album-reviews\/youre-dead-100886\/\"><em>You\u2019re Dead!<\/em><\/a> Along with Lynch, the record features contributions from Anderson .Paak, Solange, George Clinton, Tierra Whack, Denzel Curry, Thundercat, Shabazz Palaces, Little Dragon and Toro y Moi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI\u2019d been working on stuff for the past five years, but it was always all over the place,\u201d Flying Lotus said of the new record. \u201cI\u2019d always had this thematic idea in mind \u2014 a lingering concept about fire, an eternal flame sitting on a hill. Some people love it, some people hate it.
