In 1997, The Flaming Lips released Zaireeka, a challenging album that could only be experienced by playing four CDs simultaneously.
- Zaireeka was conceived as an experimental album where the listener would need to play four copies of the album at the same time to hear the full effect.
- The album was recorded by the band in their home studios in Oklahoma.
- Upon release, Zaireeka was met with confusion and mixed reviews, becoming one of the band's most polarizing albums.
The Flaming Lips are a psychedelic rock band from Oklahoma City, known for their experimental sound and elaborate live shows. Zaireeka was released late in their career with Warner Records, following a string of critically acclaimed but commercially challenging albums.
