Did I never share this one? The Flaming Lips teamed up with Henry Rollins and a couple other bands a few years ago and remade the entire album of Dark Side of the Moon.

The other half are extremely stripped down and/or trippy as hell (On the Run, Time, Money, Us & Them, Brain Damage). They alternate back and forth between these two styles. An example of each:

Flaming Lips cover Space Oddity by Bowie.
Wayne's voice sounds pretty rough and it ends poorly/abruptly, but the performance is full of wow.
