About this album
The Soft Bulletin is the Flaming Lips’ breakthrough masterpiece, where experimental rock was turned into something expansive, melodic and emotionally direct. Released in 1999, it marked the band’s move into a more orchestral and carefully layered sound, with producer Dave Fridmann helping shape its vivid studio detail. Songs such as Race for the Prize and Waitin’ for a Superman gave the album both immediacy and lasting cultural reach, while its blend of psychedelia, noise and pop craft helped secure its reputation as one of the most important alternative albums of the era. Its critical acclaim has only grown over time.
