The Soft Bulletin provides an exquisite soundtrack to have blasting in the car at night.
-
A vertiginous rainbow swirl that crams so many ideas into so many tight spaces that each track is like a perfectly rendered Joseph Cornell box.
-
Perhaps the most important album of the decade.
-
The Flaming Lips could've been forgiven for feeling usurped when their sister ship Mercury Rev steamed away with the garlands for Deserter's Songs last December, but in truth, both collectives are in competition with no-one but themselves and the gods.
-
The Soft Bulletin is sparse and enchanted, like the band has awoken from a long dream spent spinning in outer space.
-
Upon starting Soft Bulletin--you’re instantly whisked off into the universe the Flaming Lips have created. The musical journey that ensues is nothing short of imaginary genius--simple as.
-
The Soft Bulletin echoes the oft-mimiced Smiley Smile by The Beach Boys, with its psychedelic wobbliness, songs-within-songs and airy termperament.

Sep 25, 2020Really boring album that feels like a ripoff of Pet Sounds. Does not do a whole lot for me sadly.
