Flippin' Out, the third album from Gigolo Aunts, came out on Fire Records in the UK in October 1993 and on RCA/BMG in the US the following April, with different track listings on each side of the Atlantic. The lineup of Dave Gibbs, Steve Hurley, Phil Hurley and Paul Brouwer serves up sunny, jangling guitar rock, and "Cope" is the track that reached the countdowns. "Where I Find My Heaven" landed on the soundtrack to Dumb and Dumber in 1994 and helped push the band onto the charts, and "Lemon Peeler" turned up in the 1995 film Born to Be Wild.
The title song has a backstory: it was cut in the late '80s by the Wizards, a New York/New Jersey supergroup whose six-song EP never came out. Rob Norris, ex-Bongos, producer of the Aunts' debut Everybody Happy and a Wizard himself, reportedly mailed them the tape. That's Chloë Sevigny on the cover.
