It’s been 20 years since The Flaming Lips released the one-of-a-kind aural hallucination that is The Soft Bulletin. To celebrate the anniversary of its release, The Flaming Lips will play a special show at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Saturday 28 September.
There are few acts as distinctive and idiosyncratic as The Flaming Lips, which is less of a rock band and more a perpetual motion machine flipping the finder to our expectations. But even in a 36-year career of self-reinvention, this 1999 release stands out as a high point in musical innovation.
Led by charismatic frontman Wayne Coyne, this 20th anniversary concert will see The Soft Bulletin performed live, and given the band’s penchant for performances as unexpected as their songs, we’re ready for anything.
