It Overtakes Me

The Flaming Lips

A four-track burst of neon-lit psychedelia. Driving rhythms collide with existential questions and shimmering, glitchy synth-pop textures.

It's like a neon-colored panic attack that you can actually dance to.

A high-energy collision of psychedelic joy and sudden, sharp existential anxiety.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the driving beat of the title track into the ethereal, questioning atmosphere of track two.
The Bird and the Bee's remix stripping back the chaos of Free Radicals into a sleek, electronic pulse.
The way the synthesizers oscillate into pure white noise during the peak of Time Travel?? Yes!!
