“The song made me consider how individual action or inaction affects the world,” Dr. D Foothead says of the video. “What happens when our repressed pain, darkness and confusion manifest and influence our surroundings and relationships? I wanted to explore the journey of a character who has neglected their inner shadow, and how this energy […]
“It’s been less than a month since King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard dropped their latest album, K.G., but the prolific rockers have never been precious about spacing out projects. Today, the Aussie band is back with a new song called “If Not Now, Then When?”.”
“Prolific Australians King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard just released their 16th album K.G. so it should be no surprise that they’re already back with something new. After a drawn-out rock intro, “If Not Now, Then When?” turns out to be another left turn for a band full of them, a lithe track with funky […]
“If there’s one thing to be said about King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, it’s that they never gather dust. Not even three weeks after the release of their latest studio album, K.G., King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are back with a new single, “If Not Now, Then When?” released on Thursday along with […]
“Following the release of their latest album ‘K.G.’, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard aren’t slowing down, sharing brand new track ‘If Not Now, Then When?’ accompanied by an animated video.”
“Prolific psych rockers King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have released yet another new track, dubbed “If Not Now, Then When?”To accompany the jazzy, detuned composition, the band has shared an animated video that is even more mind-bending than the song itself.”
“This song was written pre-COVID, but feels even more potent now,” the band wrote. “Look out your window; the world is on fire.”
“Australia’s busiest band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard are back with another new single titled “If Not Now, Then When?”. “If Not Now, Then When?” lands hot on the heels of the group’s 16th album K.G.. The woozy new song is accompanied by an animated video directed by Dr D Foothead.”
“The song made me consider how individual action or inaction affects the world,” the New Zealand-based director explained in a statement. “What happens when our repressed pain, darkness and confusion manifest and influence our surroundings and relationships? I wanted to explore the journey of a character who has neglected their inner shadow, and how this […]
“The New Zealand-born singer-songwriter’s debut solo album, Distance, captures a lot of the uncertainty that comes with several big life changes: grappling with expectations, finding love, and following your dreams.”
“…Riot grrrl may have never returned, but Bikini Kill did, and when the feminist trailblazers announced they were reuniting to play one-off bicoastal gigs in 2019, the demand was so intense, every show they added sold out within seconds of going on sale…”
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have today announced their return with new album, K.G. To be released on KGLW via Caroline on 20 November, the ten track album is their 16th since forming in 2010 and features previously shared tracks ‘Straws In The Wind’, ‘Honey’ and ‘Some Of Us’.”
“Fuzz is a great name for a power trio, and Ty Segall (drums, vocals), Charles Moothart (guitar, vocals) and Chad Ubovich (bass, vocals) mostly make good on its promise, delivering awesomely heavy psychedelic rock with dexterity and melody…”
“Fuzz, the proto-metal power trio … have just dropped their first new album in five years, entitled III, on In The Red. The new album features a more stripped down, aggressive sound and was recorded and mixed by the legendary Steve Albini.”
After days of teasing the album in a variety of unorthodox ways – including shaving the letters ‘K.G.’ into a band member’s head – the band’s label, Flightless, confirmed the album today (October 21) on social media before the band did it themselves.
The raw video and audio files for ‘Automation’ are up on the band’s website, where the group are encouraging fans to submit their remixes and fan-made videos, with the best one being shared as the “official video” for the track.
“Australia’s King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have announced new album K.G., which is their 16th album in the group’s 10-year existence and will be out November 20 independently. It’s the second volume in their “microtonal” series that began with 2017’s Flying Microtonal Banana and contains this year’s “Honey,” “Straws in the Wind” and “Some […]
“K.G. is the 16th (!) studio album from the mind-blowingly prolific Australian outfit. It was conceived during the global pandemic, with all six members composing and recording from their own quarantine spaces in Melbourne.”
“King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard has announced their sixteenth studio album K.G. Known for their prodigious output, the band has also announced Live In S.F. ’16 (ATO Records), a live album recorded during the band’s 2016 U.S. tour stop at San Francisco venue The Independent.”
“King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard’s 2020 has so far included a lineup change, the release of five live albums, three singles, a demos collection and concert film — and the prolific Australian outfit aren’t done there. Today, the band have announced sixteenth studio album K.G. and new live collection Live In S.F. ’16 will […]
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have announced two new albums. The studio album K.G. (self-released) and Live in S.F. ’16 (via ATO) will both arrive on November 20. The prolific Melbourne collective has also shared a new track called “Automation.” King Gizzard have also made the song’s stems available at their website, so fans […]
“Earlier this week the endlessly prolific Melbourne psych rockers King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard shared the raw files for a new song called “Automation” … Now the official track and its visuals have arrived, along with news of two new albums. King Gizzard’s 16th studio album K.G. will be out next month, and on […]
“III almost feels like a live album but without the roaring crowd. The raw energy of the performances and the interplay between the musicians gives the album much of its heft and appeal.”
“a humble fusion of minimalistic production and demanding riffs that reveal the band’s draw to psychedelic and blues music.”
“They’re more than open about this being an album enthralled with guitar rock and not seeking to move the needle forward, though. They revel in the tumult of noise and the body high bruise of a triple-stack storm of good ol’ face melters. On pretty much all levels I couldn’t agree more.”
“The band’s first album since 2015 is a tour de force of gritty garage rock, with a snarling attitude and an emphasis on riffing.”
“The follow-up to 2019’s ‘Infest The Rats’ Nest’ will arrive on November 20 on KGLW via Caroline. The same day the Australian band will release ‘Live In San Francisco ’16’ through ATO, a 13-track collection captured at their show in the Californian city on May 26, 2016. It follows ‘Chunky Shrapnel’, another live LP that […]
“Nothing if not prolific, K.G. will be the Aussie psych-lords’ sixteenth album since their formation in 2010 (in 2017 alone they shared five LPs). November’s drop will be the first studio album of the year from The Gizz, though a live album will also arrive on the same day.”
“Cut with Steve Albini at Electrical Audio, it sounds like three people in a room intent on building the heaviest thing possible. “We wanted it all to be about power and performance,” Segall says, and III bears him out: it’s a collection of nuked anthems that feels perfectly suited for the apocalyptic spirt in the […]
“III is an anthemic exclamation of self-assuredness. Each song tackles sovereignty from a different angle, amplifying the message with searing guitar solos and Segall’s incendiary drumming.”
