Not only did this record pave the way for The Flaming Lips to achieve commercial success far beyond their homeland, but it also opened the doors for younger acts with a sense of adventure in their blood to break through on the pop charts. Just as earlier releases had influenced the likes of Grandaddy and Mercury Rev, The Soft Bulletin and its follow-up Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots have informed acts such as MGMT and Empire of the Sun. This is an album of its time, sure - but one with a reach that continues to feel its way through the modern musical landscape.ME / Sounds 6/99: "It's nice that there are still musicians with backbone whose works you can look forward to like a little child every time. Since 1983 the" Flips "have been around since 1983, and again and again they delight us with one wonderful noise-pop record after the other. The much-used and too often stereotyped term of the Term of masterpiece - here it fits once. "
