Transmissions From the Satellite Heart

The Flaming Lips

Abrasive noise meets sugary hooks. A technicolor explosion of 90s alternative rock that balances surreal humor with moments of genuine, wide-eyed wonder.

June 22, 1993 · Warner Bros. Records

A chaotic but joyful celebration of the strange and the mundane.

Moments Worth Listening For
the massive, bone-rattling drum fill that kicks off Turn It On
the sudden explosion of white noise and distorted guitar at the climax of Moth in the Incubator
the acoustic simplicity of Plastic Jesus providing a brief, earnest breath of air
the way Slow Nerve Action dissolves into a long, feedback-laden hypnotic fade
