About this album
Flood is the album that turned They Might Be Giants from cult favourites into alternative rock landmarks. Released in 1990, it sharpened the duo’s offbeat humour into compact, hook-heavy songs that sat neatly between pop, rock and surrealism. Produced by Bill Krauss and recorded with a fuller band sound, the album yielded some of their best-known work, including Birdhouse in Your Soul, Istanbul (Not Constantinople) and Particle Man. Its mix of wit, melody and genuine emotional bite helped make the group one of the most distinctive voices in early-1990s indie rock.
