The Flaming Lips

In 2010, the Flaming Lips were riding high on the momentum of their album 'Embryonic,' released the previous year. This album marked a bold departure from their earlier work, showcasing an experimental fusion of psychedelic rock and electronic elements. By this live performance at Terminal 5 in New York, part of SPIN Magazine's 25th anniversary concert series, the band was really embracing their signature theatricality, captivating audiences with vibrant visuals and avant-garde sounds. It's fascinating to note that their shows often blur the lines between concert and art installation, involving confetti, giant balloons, and even a hamster ball! This performance highlights the band's unique ability to create an immersive experience that resonates on multiple levels.
