I NEED a ska/dub/dance hall album. They have the power to start the 5th wave.

I've seen them 6 times and 2024 is the height of their powers thus far. Absolutely incredible how good the show was.

I'd only heard a few songs of theirs before, but I went and saw them at Red Rocks last weekend and I'm a believer

Gumboot Soup was the first King Gizzard record I ever bought and I couldn't have picked a better album to start. Like you said, if you find one song on there you enjoy, there's a whole album dedicated to that soundscape.

It wasn’t their usual experimental stuff that got me into them actually. I got hooked on PetroDragonic Apocalypse starting with Gila Monster, because it was so damn fun, and branched out from there. The synths and groove and psychedelic is not really my taste in music sadly, but I’ve picked out songs here and there in almost every album that I enjoy. Stumbling upon King Gizzard as a metalhead, it was definitely a mind twister to hear most of their stuff but if you’re feeling explorational, most of it’s worth hearing no matter what your taste in music!

2020. Lockdown, stuck inside my apartment with a bunch of other students, we'd regularly take shrooms and listen to music… Thank you to the turkish girl that introduced me to king gizzard

Thoughts on the b741 album? And does nayone know if it's pronounced "Bee 7 4 1" or "flat7 41" – a band member and I are disputing over this. I think it's flat7 41.

The correct way to address the band is ‘King Gizz Lizz Wizz’, sir.

These guys are the best band out right now, just saw them live and they sound great. They put on a great show. Solid album review and well made video.

Being a metal fan and a techno fan, KGLW made my day with Petrodragonic and The Silver Cord. And yes, Butterfly 3000 and Infest The Rats Nest are also my faves (even tho it was their microtonal albums that’s got me into them)

September 28, 2024 at 2:05 am
their new album, flight b741 is probably the best they've dropped since I'm in your mind fuzz they just keep on winning

I would love them to try and dip toes into more hip hop and metal personally I think that would be very cool. They already did petradragonic for metal but I think a rap hip hop focused album would be dope

if you tried to read their minds the amount of song ideas they have would probably implode your brain
@trev_dingo
September 28, 2024 at 2:05 am
I couldn't disagree more with what you think their best albums are (you didn't even MENTION Oddments or FAFYL!) and I lol'd at Paper Mache Dream Balloon being grouped in with their "psychadelic garage rock" sound haha BUT that's King Gizz for ya! Everyone gets something different out of listening to them. Regardless, this was a fun watch and you do touch on a lot of interesting things about this band 👍

I think a second wave ska type 80’s pop reggae album would be fun
