The Flaming Lips have shared a colorful new music video for “Giant Baby“, one of the singles from the experimental rock band’s 2019 studio album, King’s Mouth: Music And Songs.
The fun video opens with comedian and accomplished musician Fred Armisen welcoming viewers back to some fictional television show and introducing the band’s as if they were the musical guest. The video then transitions to images of hooded bandmembers swaying back and forth amongst endless strings of colored lights and transparent balls like possessed monks on an LSD trip as the music begins to play.
Singer Wayne Coyne finally makes his grand appearance about 1:20 minutes into the clip, where he’s seen in an all-white suit in front of a rainbow and the sparkling lights. The video continues to move back and forth between shots of the band and Coyne.
Watch the new video for “Giant Baby” below.

King’s Mouth arrived back in mid-July and features 12 new original recordings from the veteran rock band which are all connected by narration provided by The Clash’s Mick Jones.
The band recently completed a run of summer tour dates alongside the Claypool Lennon Delirium, and now set their sights on Europe, the U.K., and Australia, where they’ll perform throughout the month of September.
