In 2013, the album was reissued as part of a CD series spanning They Might Be Giants' four Elektra releases. Upon its release, Flood was met with praise from critics and achieved moderate success on sales charts. The album was initially issued on CD, LP, and cassette. Many fans, including young viewers of Tiny Toon Adventures, were first exposed to They Might Be Giants's music through Flood. The album's mainstream promotion and success contributed to its status as the band's most well known album. Promotion for Flood included television appearances, promotional videos, and an international tour. The album was recorded in New York City at Skyline Studios, which was better equipped than studios the band had worked in previously. John Linnell and John Flansburgh also took advantage of new equipment and recording techniques, including unconventional, home-recorded samples, which were programmed through Casio FZ-1 synthesizers. Despite minimal stylistic and instrumental differences from previous releases, Flood is distinguished by contributions from seasoned producers Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley. The album is generally considered to be the band's definitive release, as it is their best-selling and most recognizable album. It generated three singles: " Birdhouse in Your Soul", " Istanbul (Not Constantinople)", and the domestic promotional track "Twisting". Flood was the duo's first album on the major label Elektra Records.
Flood is the third studio album by Brooklyn-based alternative rock duo They Might Be Giants, released in January 1990.
