Remastered from the Original 1/4" Analog Tape Masters by Longtime Producer David Fridmann with the Band's Wayne Coyne and Michael Ivins

The Flaming Lips have pushed the envelope and bent boundaries for more than two decades with the band's Grammy-winning music and ground-breaking concerts. In 2018, Rhino and Warner Bros. Records will celebrate Oklahoma's most famous freaks with an ambitious reissue program, kicking off with remastered editions of the joyous weirdness the band recorded for Restless Records between 1984 and 1990 before signing with Warner Bros. in 1991 including Hear It Is (1986), Oh My Gawd!!!...The Flaming Lips (1987), Telepathic Surgery (1989) and In A Priest Driven Ambulance (With Silver Sunshine Stares) (1990).

Experimental, even by The Flaming Lips standards, the band's third album is a glorious and mind-expanding mix of heavily effected guitar solos, backwards recordings and surrealistic imagery. Once again, the classic song titles keep coming with "Chrome Plated Suicide," "Hari-Krishna Stomp Wagon (Fuck Led Zeppelin)," and "Drug Machine in Heaven." Telepathic Surgery became a big influence on a number of bands in its wake from Mercury Rev and Beck to Grandaddy and The Olivia Tremor Control.

Remastered from the original 1/4" analog tape masters by the band's longtime musical foil and producer, David Fridmann, with help from the Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne and Michael Ivins.
