THE FLAMING LIPS RELEASE NEW VIDEO “GIANT BABY” FROM
KING’S MOUTH: MUSIC AND SONGS
 
Tour Of Europe, UK, Australia and US Dates Begins Sept. 1st
August 30, 2019 (Los Angeles, CA) – Today, THE FLAMING LIPS release a brand new video for the track “Giant Baby” from the universally acclaimed Warner Records album King’s Mouth: Music And Songs.  The video was filmed in Oklahoma City and Los Angeles, directed by Wayne Coyne and features a cameo by their long-time friend Fred Armisen. “Giant Baby” is perhaps the most lyrically poignant and personal song from the album but visually, the Lips still convey raw emotion in the most vivid and surreal way imaginable. Click HERE to view and share.

King’s Mouth: Music And Songs, which features narration from Mick Jones of The Clash,also serves as a soundtrack for Wayne Coyne’s immersive art installation of the same name. King’s Mouth: Immerse Heap Trip Fantasy Experience tells the story of the King’s Mouth through words and visuals by Coyne, adds yet another dimension to the project, which ranks among the band’s most ambitious thus far. About the vision, Coyne wrote, “The King’s Mouth immersive/child-like qualities are born from the same spark and womb as The Flaming Lips’ live performances. The King’s Mouth adventure was made for humans of all sizes, ages, cultures, and religions.” Click HERE to view and share the making of the KING’S MOUTH Part 1.HERE for Part 2. HERE for Part 3, and Part 4 HERE.

King’s Mouth: Music And Songs continues to dazzle the media:
 
“If there’s been one consistent in The Flaming Lips’ careening four-decade evolution, it’s that Wayne Coyne loves to tell a good story. KING’S MOUTH reminds us that Coyne can draw poignancy and pathos from the strangest sources.” – Pitchfork

“Climb inside KING’S MOUTH, the band’s kaleidoscopic new record. The Flaming Lips remain remarkably ageless and endlessly creative.”– NPR

KINGS MOUTH will blow your mind. The new album by The Flaming Lips is a head trip – literally. The ever-evolving, mind-blowing alt-rockers have somehow upped their game. This is THE LIPS, after all.” – Associated Press

Levitation Room share "Ooh Child" single and music video + new album out 10/4 on Greenway Records

LEVITATION ROOM RELEASE SOULFUL SINGLE "OOH CHILD"

NEW ALBUM 'HEADSPACE' OUT OCTOBER 4TH VIA GREENWAY RECORDS

ON TOUR WITH PSYCHEDELIC PORN CRUMPETS THIS FALL


"OOH CHILD" PREMIERING NOW ON IMPOSE MAGAZINE!


PRE-ORDER 'HEADSPACE' HERE
 
August 30, 2019 -- Today, East-LA psychedelic rock band Levitation Room release the next single from their forthcoming sophomore album 'Headspace' due out October 4th, 2019 via Greenway Records (Acid Dad, Frankie & the Witch Fingers, Las Rosas). "Ooh Child" sees the band taking a step towards retro-R&B stylings with a groovy backbeat and soulful vocals. We've partnered with IMPOSE Magazine to bring you the far-out music video. They said, "Julian Porte’s soothing vocals absolutely float over lush, vintage guitars and propulsive mid-tempo rhythms. His soft, high croon gives the track a kick of romantic wistfulness, unleashing gorgeously vivid lyrics of longing."
❋❋❋  
'Headspace' serves as the follow-up to Levitation Room's 2016 debut, 'Ethos.' and their first record on Brooklyn's Greenway Records. Earlier this month, the band unveiled the mesmerizing "Mr. Polydactyl Cat" along with an equally trippy music video that features a mischevious feline with a knack for wreaking havoc. REMEZCLA premiered the single praising the "instrumentation that breathes out its psychedelic fumes, instantly intoxicating us with its feel-good vibes."

The band's fuzzy guitar-driven rock n roll must have struck a chord with a society yearning for their freakbeat brand of psychedelia. Since their inception, the band has amassed millions of streams on Spotify and in that time the band saw their fan base increase after various shows, tours and music festivals across the US and Europe.

With their new record 'Headspace', Levitation Room displays their process of maturity in sound and songwriting, exploring new territories of influence in music and instrumentation, combining folk, jazz, raga, soul/r&b, pop and of course… psychedelia.

Now apart of the Greenway Records family, 'Headspace' will enter the world October 4th, 2019.
