Highly recommended. 

Their follow-up to the experimental four-disc Zaireeka, The Soft Bulletin is an emotional, lush, often symphonic pop masterpiece with distinct melodies admidst the swirl of textures and tones. Yet for all its headphone- friendly innovations, the music is still amazingly accessible, never sacrificing popcraft in the name of radical experimentation.

After lauded indie albums, The Flaming Lips debuted on Warner Bros. with 1991's Hit To Death In The Future Head. Transmissions From The Satellite Heart and Clouds Taste Metallic followed. 1999's The Soft Bulletin topped numerous year-end best-of listsand helped rank the band among the most influential inthe world. 2002's Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots ranked #4 in Spin and #11 in NME on their end-of-yearlists, and won a Grammy®. Most recently, the band's full length feature film and score album Christmas On Mars received critical acclaim at screenings across the country in 2008.
