There’s a certain magic to this album, and I think it’s only enhanced with the beauty of the live symphony and choir. The album was released to widespread acclaim, and was hailed by critics as a departure from their previous guitar-heavy alternative rock sound into a more layered, intricately arranged work. Records on May 17, 1999, in the United Kingdom, and on June 22, 1999, in the United States. The album was the band's breakthrough moment and featured the hit singles "Race For The Prize" and "Waitin' for a Superman". The Soft Bulletin has been one of the most influential albums in my life, and I was really looking forward to the album after hearing the singles they put out earlier. The Soft Bulletin is the ninth studio album by American rock band the Flaming Lips, released by Warner Bros. This resulting live album is being released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Soft Bulletin, originally released in 1999. This entire concert was produced by The Flaming Lips, Scott Booker and their long-time collaborator Dave Fridmann.
The Flaming Lips performed the 12-track album in it's original sequence with new arrangements for each song that use the orchestra and chorus to great effect. The performance was conducted by the internationally celebrated conductor Andre de Ridder. The Flaming Lips (Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins, Derek Brown, Jake Ingalls, Matt Kirksey and Nicholas Ley) were accompanied by a 69-piece orchestra and 56-strong Chorus. On May 26, 2016, The Flaming Lips performed their classic album The Soft Bulletin in it's entirety with the Colorado Symphony at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado.
