King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard Announce Electronic Album: Watch Video for Lead Single

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard announced Wednesday (July 8) that their next album is coming soon, and that it will be a hard electronic project. Called Alien Metal, the project is set for release later this summer on the band’s own p(doom) Records and will be the Australian act’s 28th studio LP. The news comes in tandem with Alien Metal‘s lead single, the spacey, acid-y, jungle-influenced “Level 5.”

Alien Metal goes to darker and more pummeling areas of the genre via techno, hardcore, ravey house and jungle. “Alien Metal goes really hard, but it also goes to really interesting places,” adds the band’s Joey Walker. “And it feels unique – it feels like us, still.”
