The Flaming Lips are an American rock band, famous for their lush, multi-layered sounds and psychedelic rock arrangements. Lyrically, the band's songs stand out for their space rock compositions, featuring strange song and album titles. Of course, their fascination with all things space-related and psychedelic, makes for a very creative and fun live show experience. Audiences from around the world can't stop raving about the band's crazy costumes, as well as their use of balloons, puppets, video projections, complex stage light configurations, giant hands, tons of confetti, and frontman Wayne Coyne's signature man-sized plastic bubble that he uses to traverse the audience. For all of these reasons, Q magazine dubbed the band one of the "50 bands to See Before you Die" in 2002.

The Flaming Lips group recorded several albums and EPs in the 1980s and early 1990s. After signing to Warner Brothers, they scored a hit in 1993 with "She Don't Use Jelly", which was their only hit single in the U.S. However, the band has maintained their commercial appeal thanks to 1999's The Soft Bulletin (which was NME magazine's Album of the Year) and 2002's Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Interestingly, they have had more hit singles in the UK and Europe than in the U.S. and were even nominated for a 2007 BRIT Award in the "Best International Act" category. Eventually the band got the recognition they deserved back in the states, earning three Grammy Awards, including two for Best Rock Instrumental Performance.
