These very special shows honor the 20th anniversary of The Lips groundbreaking 1999 masterpiece, The Soft Bulletin. Two decades since its original release and the deep-seated affect and influence of this seminal work continues to resonate just as brightly.
“This is one of those albums people are going to obsess over for many years to come.” – Pitchfork
“Once you’ve labored in cult obscurity, fielded rumors that John Tesh wanted to cover one of your songs, appeared on Beverly Hills 90210, composed an orchestra for forty automobile tape decks and enjoyed a Top Forty blip, what do you do for a follow-up? The eccentric Oklahoma outfit The Flaming Lips serenely release another winning neo-psychedelic recording. Densely textured but melodic…No one else has posited a parallel universe in which the Sixties and the Nineties exist simultaneously.” – Rolling Stone
