And, in 1991, brought forth Hit to Death in the Future Head. The Soft Bulletin is the most accessible album that these stalwarts of psychedelic noise-pop have ever released. Rhythmic and piano laden, exploding with intelligence and sonic texture, the Lips' 9th album continues their adventure into otherworldly pop.
