Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space

Spiritualized

A towering monument of 90s psychedelia. Gospel choirs and orchestral swells meet fuzzed-out blues to map the wreckage of a broken heart across the cosmos.

May 7, 1997 · Fat Possum Records

A monumental collision of cosmic euphoria and crushing, earthbound heartbreak.

Moments Worth Listening For
The three-way vocal counterpoint in the title track where Elvis lyrics weave through a cosmic lullaby.
The sudden, violent transition into the garage-rock chaos of Electricity after the slow burn of Stay With Me.
The moment the London Community Gospel Choir enters on Cool Waves, turning a private grief into a communal prayer.
The seventeen-minute descent of Cop Shoot Cop into a repetitive, hypnotic blues-dirge featuring Dr. John's swampy piano.
