Impact Music #15: The Soft Bulletin

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips

Another one of those records that still gives me that first-listen buzz whenever I put it on and is - hyperbole alert! - arguably the last great album of the 20th century, with songs that make you want to cry with joy at how beautiful and sad and uplifting it all is.

I bought it based purely on the reviews it got, with many claiming this was a game changing album. Turns out they were right, this sounded like a NEW music.nIt doesn't really sound like anything that went before it, but a lot of bands have tried to sound like it since.
