Melbourne’s King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have landed next week’s feature album on triple j with their album I’m In Your Mind Fuzz.
Then there was King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, no strangers to Baby’s All Right, who came armed with three guitarists, two drummers, a flute and an insane amount of energy.

These psychedelic garage rockers have also been receiving high praise from the music community and as of this month have released seven albums in three years. The prolific seven piece band were brought together through living in a share house and their mutual love for Pavement and Thee Oh Sees.

Australian garage psych outfit King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have a new track coming to us from their upcoming fifth album, I’m in Your Mind Fuzz “Hot Water” is a bass thumping track accented by swirling flute riffs and steady drum work.
