WOOOO!!

[Salvatorin]

this is awesome. this is what people should do. viva la revolución

[KovalainenFanBoy]

nice

[Kennylogg Bubblebath]

This is pretty ballsy. I'm into it.

[Soloman Tump]

Umm yeah, pretty neat idea.

 

You could burn a bunch of CDs with alternative tracklists or spliced in with your own work / modify the artwork and remix it all.

limited watmm editions remix projects?

[KovalainenFanBoy]

the fanbase is already organizing crowdfunded vinyl pressings

[Soloman Tump]

Thing is, I love the band name, but not so much the musiks.

[hello spiral]

I've never listened to the musiks because fuck that fucking band name.

[Guest]

they’re damn good live.

 

start here:

 

dunno, gotta get past their ironic hipster hippie shtick then they’re very good

[Lada Laika]

This makes me wish I liked this band more.

[KovalainenFanBoy]

Don't think that particular track is a good starting point tbh. Would rather have someone listen to Nonagon Infinity first, or I'm In Your Mind Fuzz

[Poimandres]

King Gizzard fucking rules. They played a track off the new album on the radio earlier, and it was pretty nice. Don't take them too seriously, they certainly don't take themselves that way.

 

Seeing them live for the first time at Gizzfest on Saturday. Excited!

Yeah. Maybe I'm being unfair in not trying because I'm just so over pysch rock revival. I mean, a lot of it's good and all, I'm just snobby and into weirder and heavier stuff. Once you've seen Acid Mothers Temple 10 years ago everything else seems a little tame.

 

I like actual gizzards fried quite a lot though.

Yeah it's kind of funny, I was listening to stuff like this years ago and now I prefer metal. In 10 more years will I only listen to harsh pink noise at 110dB? 

[Rubin Farr]

it's lizard wizard not wizard lizard

fix'd

[YourLifeInAButchOfSlopes]

Just downloaded wav pack.

Going to do a pedal HNW remix of the whole thingumy.

[KovalainenFanBoy]

not feeling this album tbh, maybe itll grow on me. Hope next month's one is better

[Rubin Farr]

Love this band, can't believe the workload/quality ratio is so high

[usagi]

I've never listened to the musiks because fuck that fucking band name.

 

sad but true.

[Guest]

this has more polyrhythms than the new Tool album.

[Hail Sagan]

Searching... sounds like it could fit right in between Parabol and Parabola on Lateralus. And not in a bad way either. I never really gave this band a shot based on a) the ridiculous name and b) the one song of theirs I listened to partially was rattlesnake which seemed repetitive and on first listen just came across as some really derivative revivalist tripe. Listened to the full album in full at work and enjoyed it quite a bit. Definitely plan on keeping it in rotation and  will dig into their discog later.

[Solo Strike]

Their catalogue is a delight, it's all over the place! The album Rattlesnake is from is killer, it's all based on microtonally altered instruments
