The Flaming Lips

In September 2010, The Flaming Lips were riding high on the innovative wave of their album 'Embryonic,' which they released in late 2009. This live recording of 'Sagittarius Silver Announcement' captures the band's bold experimental sound during a period where they really embraced their psychedelic roots, all while pushing the boundaries of modern rock. Interestingly, 'Embryonic' was a double album featuring sprawling tracks that showcased their new avant-garde approach, and this live performance reflects that spirit beautifully. The Lips were known for their elaborate stage shows, and during this performance at The Blue Note, you could likely feel the electrifying atmosphere they created with their unique blend of sound and visuals. It's worth noting that their performances around this time were not just concerts; they felt like cosmic journeys, inviting fans to explore a world of imagination and sound together.
