"Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space" is the third studio album by English space rock band Spiritualized, released in 1997. This critically acclaimed masterpiece is a sonic exploration of love, loss, and existential crisis, set against a backdrop of swirling orchestral arrangements, distorted guitars, and hypnotic rhythms. Jason Pierce's haunting vocals and poignant lyrics guide the listener through a journey of introspection and self-discovery, as the album's 12 tracks blend elements of psychedelia, indie rock, and electronic music to create a truly transcendent listening experience.
