King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard: K.G. LP

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard return with new album K.G., their sixteenth since forming in 2010. In the wake of a global pandemic, it's a collection of songs composed and recorded remotely after the six members of the band retreated to their own homes scattered around Melbourne. K.G. is a pure distillation of the King Gizzard sound, one that cherry picks the best aspects of previous albums and contorts them into new shapes via defiantly non-western rock scales. K.G. is the second volume in the band's "microtonal" series that began with 2017's Flying Microtonal Banana and contains the preceding tracks "Honey," "Straws in the Wind," "Some of Us" and "Automation." "FMB was one of the purest and most enjoyable recording experiences we've had, and the ideas just kept coming," explains de facto bandleader/multi-instrumentalist Stu Mackenzie. "It's almost like an album that normal people make." LP jacket in brown paper bag wrap.
