After releasing a few EP's in their younger years, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard burst into the scene with their energetic debut 12 Bar Bruise. At the time though, no one knew how loved this seven piece band would become. After releasing a couple amazing albums like Float Along - Fill Your Lungs and Oddments, the band started to make a name for themselves in Australian. But it wasn't until after the release of I'm In Your Mind Fuzz when the band started to get international recognition. Combine that with releasing an all acoustic album title Paper Mache Dream Balloon and an album that loops infinitely called Nonagon Infinity, the band quickly became loved by many. And they never stopped either.
In 2017 the band decided to release 5 albums. They held up to their promise releasing Flying Microtonal Banana, Murder of The Universe, Sketches of Brunswick East, Polygondwanaland and Gumboot Soup. The quality of these albums showed that the band weren't just focusing on quantity but proved that the band really cared about the music that they were putting out and were never afraid to experiment with new sounds.
They took the experimentation even further after that.. Releasing the bluesy-boogie inspired Fishing for Fishies, then the thrash metal inspired Infest the Rats Nest, then the dream pop inspired Butterfly 3000. This band never stops working and it was a pleasure to experience all their music for the first time.

Thank you so much for watching this video! This was a lot of fun to make so I hope you enjoyed it. If you want me to do another video like this, then let me know what band I should dive into next! Please consider joining the discord. We've got an amazing community over there. It's great for finding new music! discord.gg/Mspd8fHFeZ
Plz do ohsees. Kinda similar to kg but american so not as cool
@@insertname8999 Oh sees are a different animal. Two different weightclasses there bud. I get the comparisons since they both are pretty intertwined, but sometimes it's just damn silly to compare those beasts.
Awesome video! You should consider trying Buckethead next. Crime Slunk Scene and Pikes 32, 54, 65, 70, 149, 156, 218, 166, 252, 256, 268 and 245 are good places to start. Too many to list.
@@insertname8999 the osees don't need to be australian they just release face-melting music and that's enough
King Gizzard is the band of all time. They create albums consisting of songs, utilizing instruments and notes!
Dude so true!
Don’t forget rhythms!!
@@rottingpotatoes2483 Can't forget chords either
All while including instruments such as drums and vocals
Can't forget the time they hit metal sheets with a hammer for Eyes Like the Sky too (though ig that counts as a percussion instrument?)
ive never heard someone say microtonal banana was their LEAST favorite microtonal album
MFB is my least favorite microtonal album
It is the weakest in my opinion. KG and LW are honestly incredible and I listen to them regularly
We exist. I think they definitely improved in their layer microtonal stuff. I still love it though
that really took me back, microtonal flying banana is one of the first albums ive listened to from them and the only song i wasnt a huge fan of i started to like more andd more
I love FMB.
Infest the Rat's Nest is a PERFECT album. I know its not for everyone, but as a Metalhead that got into Gizz, I could not have been happier with this album. Gizz has been my favorite band since like 2016 (Nonagon), so getting this 3 years later was amazing.
Definitely going to have to give Infest The Rats Nest more listens after seeing how much love it gets
Hard agree
Bro they opened last night with Self-Immolate, without a doubt one of the hardest pits I've been to in a hot minute, even harder than the Dying Fetus show I had a bit back (Granted I was busy grinding with these two lovely ladies that whole night)
i didn’t love a lot of ITRN on first listen, but now it’s easily one of my favorites.. especially after getting into the story it’s PERFECT
infest the rats is the deep purple metal reincarnation I've been waiting for.
Dude, you have to give Rats' Nest another try. I didn't like metal at all going into it and had pretty much the same reaction of "wow, probably never listening to this again" the first time, but after one or two more listens I liked it and now it's my favorite album of theirs other than Nonagon. It also was the catalyst for me getting into metal in general, which is what I listen to like half of the time nowadays
I'll definitely give it another try one day. I promise!
@@KyleReidMu do it now.
@@KyleReidMu I'm telling you, throw infests the rats nest on in the car and it'll be amazing.
Had the exact same experience lol
Same I didn’t like metal, but I listened to ITRN, and now it’s my favorite.
My favorite album of Gizzards is Murder Of The Universe, and I immediately predicted you would hate it because of the spoken word after just 3 albums; i initially did too. I truly encourage you to try MOTU and other albums you didnt like in isolation from the others and with multiple listens, as i dont think the best opinions come from a first reaction. Otherwise, good video 👍
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I'll give them another chance eventually. I especially want to check out Infest The Rats Nest again. That's really funny that you predicted that I wouldn't like it lol
MOTU is the best, agreed
Couldn't get the Lord of Lightning melody out of my head for weeks, absolute banger
@@KyleReidMu even as a metalhead whose favorite KGLW is Infest the Rats Nest, I was incredibly underwhelmed by MOTU for a long time. Eventually though something clicked and I was able to go back and enjoy all the insane riffage. I think it helps to appreciate or at least understand the kinds of goofy, low-budget sci-fi and fantasy movies from the 60's and 70's that MOTU is an homage to. It's easily the campiest Gizz album, and I think that's a turn off for a lot of fans. But like I said, once I was in the mood for it, I realized some of their most incredible guitar work is actually on that album. The whole Altered Beast suite is a rip and is the next best thing to Nonagon if you want more of that specific Gizz sound. Still not in my favorite albums, but I appreciate it a lot more than I used to.
As for Infest the Rats Nest, wait until you have to drive somewhere during another one of these "historic" heatwaves that seem to happen more and more frequently these days. I guarantee there's no song that's more of a banger for when you are inescapably aware of the climate collapse caused by the greed of the mega-rich than Self-Immolate.
MOTU is one of the best albums of all time. I love the spoken word because it tells an entire story throughout the whole album. I can’t get enough of it
Maybe the reason why nonagon infinity is everyone’s favorite king giz album, is because it’s their best album they’ve ever released. I don’t know, just a thought
Lmao ya it's pretty good, I gotta admit
@@KyleReidMu I’m not saying that the other ones are bad, they have some really good ones like fishing fishies or butterfly 3000, but nonagon is just such a great concept album.
@@lookluke4063 Yes I agree
@@lookluke4063 I definitely like Poly the most by a significant margin, but I sure feel like Nonagon is a very accessible and universally liked one. Dunno, people are all over the place with this band. Gamma Knife will never not be one of my favorite songs, and it's not even my favorite on that record. Robot Stop alone puts me in a mood, it's like some songs just are giving nice vibe assists and the other half carries it home.
@@minhuang8848 yeah I'm def for poly gang too
Bruh, Eyes Like the Sky is deadass one of my favorites. Such a unique vibe compared to the rest of their discography. It'll randomly get stuck in my head, and I'll go back and listen to it like once or twice a week.
It definitely is a unique vibe. I'll probably go back to it eventually because it was pretty cool. But maybe not for a little bit haha
@@KyleReidMu Picking one or two songs I liked from each album that I didn't like helped me appreciate them better in the long run. 'Year of our Lord' is a good one from this album
YES, I listen to it regularly too. One of the best kg albums for me
Most albums that you like (KG,LW, Butterfly 3000, Sketches) are all ones I find mid but the albums you don’t care for (I’m in your mind fuzz, omnium gatherum, murder of the universe, gumboot soup, flying microtonal banana, infest the rats nest) are my FAVOURITES.
So funny how the same band can cause such wildly differing opinions. Tho we both agree that paper mache is perfection
That's one of the coolest things about the band that I learned with this video. Everyone has wildly different opinions about each album
I might be biased, for several reasons, but I think this is the best video you've made Kyle. Thanks for letting me contribute to it!
Haha I this is my favorite video I've made as well :) Thank you for helping me out with it!
@@KyleReidMu of course, I'm glad you've been converted to our cult
@@katecurtis-hawkins6476 nonagon infinity opens the door
Nonagon infinity opens the door
Wait for answer to open door
Nonagon infinity opens the door.
Gizz sucks you in. I thought most of their albums were mid when I first listened to them.... then somehow I listened to each one like 10 times and it just clicked. They all have a place in my book
Welcome to the weirdo swarm Kyle! King Giz have already confirmed they have finished their next few albums, so there's that to look forward to.
Oh wow that's awesome to hear!
One thing I love about this band, apart from nearly all of their music, is the fandom. Like, there are thousands of varying opinions on what song/album is best, or which is horrible, and from what I've seen from youtube comments at least, 99.9% of fans will call any and all of those opinions correct. It's the perfect pick 'n mix band! Loved the video! Came for the gizz, and will probably stay and watch some more of your stuff for the funny delivery!
It's actually really cool to see a band with a fan base that has a lot of varying opinions. I'm glad you liked the video!
You are probably one of the few reviewer who said Sketches is a great album (couldn't agree more), and I really appreciate that Polygond is your fav album (me too actually, couldn't agree more)
Haha I'm glad you agree! Both of those albums are incredible
@@KyleReidMu exactly, and fantano gave sketches 5/10 (and also, the first time I listen to MOTU I didn't really like it, but it keeps growing on me more and more, and I hope the same also does for you too)
Same boat here! Really entertaining video man (the first one of yours i’ve seen). Looking forward to watching more!
My top 5
5. Fishing For Fishies
4. Polygondwanaland
3. Nonagon Infinity
2. Murder Of The Universe
1. Infest The Rat’s Nest
My favorite songs from those albums are Hell, Digital Black, People Vultures, Crumbling Castle and Fishing For Fishies
Murders of The Universe is my favorite.
@@kyles5513 nice
@@atti_odyssey your list is pretty much the same as mine except I would put 5 as Mind Fuzz and switch 1 and 2 around. Fuckin awesome band.
@@kyles5513 yeah, my 2nd favorite
No fmb is a crime
You have earned full respect from me for listening to every king gizzard album and using jet set radio music in the background. You Have amazing taste.
Amazing video,,, I love hearing other fans of gizz
great vid, subbed! looking forward to your vids :)
you lost me at not liking MOTU but got me back at having polygondwanaland as a favourite
I love to see how different opinions of Gizz can get. Great video!
Having taken the journey myself, and made a video on it, it's fun to see how you were sucked in too
I need to check out your video on them!
Banana throwing time
Great video :)
Subbed! Great video!
my favorite bands are literally king gizzard and car seat headrest, this channel is like a blessing for me
flying microtonal banana remains one of my favorite albums of all time
This was a great recap. Love the edits and the style of your vid. Fukkin gret my man.
Thank you! I'm happy that you enjoyed it :)
Polygondwanaland and I’m In Your Mind Fuzz are tied for my favorite albums of theirs, but every release they do is a treat to me.
King gizzard and the lizard wizard is such a king gizzard sounding band name. It's so perfect. I love them. They're absolutely brilliant. If you haven't already look into the bands' members' other projects. Pipe-eye, bullant, the murlocs, Cavs. They're all geniuses.
I love hearing peoples experiences with KGLW because of how different everyone enjoys their music! Its so unique and awesome how so many people have different favorite albums by them ranging wildly in sounds and styles. I love KGLW im glad you enjoy them too!
goated music channel
Thanks Benjamin 😎
Oddments is my favourite album haha. Dunno if it is coz of the impression it gave me the 1st time i listened to it but it´s just great. The intro is crazy, it has some silly tracks that lightens the album and the lofi vibe throughout it works really well. For me it´s tied top 1# with I´m in your mind fuzz for huge different reasons. Also, the "rap" songs on Omnium Gatherum are great, they´re hella fun and somehow work. Glad you enjoyed your gizz journey, you´ll probably have this much music to react to in just a few years
Oddments was definitely a fun album to listen to. The first track is sooo awesome. I can't wait to hear what this band does next
Wow this video was a really fun watch, and your takes were pretty damn good. I really liked the editing and your delivery, solid stuff. If you ever do plan to return to the trash can tier you might find more to enjoy than you’d expect, because I’ve probably never seen someone online who has as similar of an opinion on the bands music.
Once I’d heard Rats Nest a handful of times, the heaviness was easier to look past and it really started to click, especially the second half. Omnium is one of my absolute favorites, and I get a lot of the same enjoyment out of it and Gumboot that you mentioned with KG/LW and Oddments, with the variety and wider range. And personally Murder of the Universe didn’t work for me much at all until I was clued in to a lot of it being metaphors for never ending growth or even just capitalism in general, with the concepts of “being altered” representing that constant greedy drive that’s been fairly normalized. Before that, the album was a little too aggressive and sometimes a bit mean spirited for me.
Just some fun thoughts I wanted to share since you clearly spent a while listening to them and making this. Good work I’m excited to see what else you make
I definitely want to give the lower tier albums another listen at some point. Especially Rats Nest because I feel like I could get into it once I get used to it
Dude, this is a great video, very entertaining.
Thank you so much!
Excellent effort sir. I love seeing the Gizz continue to get recognised and respected outside of Australia. Every time I think I have a favourite album, I find another! I disagree with you regarding Infest, Omnium, In your mind and the 'banana' album, but I agree with your choice of 'bangers'. One of the hardest working bands on the planet. I bloody love them 👌
What a well made video! Good stuff man! Glad to hear you enjoy King Gizz, I’ve been a fan for a few years now and I can totally say that my favourite album has flipped around a whole lot, and how I view a lot of the songs (often in a more positive way after repeat listening.) liked and subbed!
Thanks! I'm happy that you enjoyed it
awesome video my man. i initially felt the same way abt omnium gatherum until i heard it live last week. gaia and the Dripping tap are extremely well translated to a live scenario. really goated band tbh
Glad you enjoyed the video! I gotta check out some live performances, I heard they're great
They’re my favourite band at the moment! My favourite album of theirs would have to be Polygondwanaland, and my least favourite is probably 12 Bar Bruise (although it’s still a good album).
I can definitely see why they'd be your favorite band!
An fyi on time land: it was a long running joke with the fans that they'd make an edm album with the same name. They eventually released it on vinyl only (afaik). It was meant to be released with their "made in time land" Festival that was going to be on nye 2021, but it got delayed due to covid. So then we had to wait a couple of months until it was released.
Ya I heard somewhere that it was like a "cursed album"
it's never too late for the GIZZ!
seeing them at Bonnaroo this weekend, I can't wait
That sounds like it'll be awesome!
Great video! I find super fascinating how different people's background in music leads them to have completely different opinions on which KGLW albums are the best. I come from an hardcore/punk/metal/experimental stuff background, and when I started listening to their music, they just released MOTU. That's how they trapped me eheh. To this day, this album is for sure in my top 3 from them. Don't get me wrong, I truly love every album they've ever released, but MOTU is just my cup of tea. The point is that they have something for EVERYONE! And also, in the end, we all agree that Poly is just something else (my absolute favourite KGLW album, by far).
It's really awesome that they truly do have something for everyone
Thank you for shouting g out 30 Past 7 my dude. It's a hidden gem for sure. Got yourself a subscriber out of me :)
I'm diving through their discog myself at the moment & am glad to see someone else liked SOBE, it's a really nice palette cleanser after hearing their heavier psychedelic garage sounds. Just a really chill and laid back collection of jazz jams
Gizz is easily my favorite band of all time and I disagree with the majority of your opinions but it's cool to see people become new fans of Gizz. With so many albums in so many different styles it makes sense that there's so many differing opinions within the fanbase so even if we disagree on a lot it doesn't really matter cause in the end it's all Gizz. Glad you like Nonagon though. That album absolutely rips and is easily one of my favorites to drive to. One thing I've found with this band is a lot of their albums/songs tend to grow on you after a while. If you're into live shows I highly recommend checking out their performances on youtube. They're easily one of the coolest live bands today
epic vid man.
my favourites: omnium gatherum, murder of the universe, FMB, nonagon infinity, i'm in your mind fuzz.
trash: 12 bar bruise, eyes like the sky, gumboot soup, maybe K.G and quarters too.
I'm glad you liked the video! Sorry I called two of your favorite albums by them bad lol
This might be the greatest RUclips video of all time. It’s about my favourite band of all time and the background music is from Jet Set Radio Future which is my favourite video game of all time
Haha I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
My favorite for a long time was Quarters and I was constantly told I wasn’t a “real gizz fan” because so many people don’t like that album. I officially declared Omnium Gatherum took up the number one mantle for me. Seen them play live twice and already booked to see them at red rocks in October. It’s interesting that my two favorite albums didn’t hit well with you. Everyone has a preference and gizz has so much music everyone can find something they like! Great video dude!!
I ended up liking quarters a lot more later on. I do agree though, it's cool to see how everyone can have a different favorite album when it comes to this band
@@KyleReidMu how could you not enjoy Dripping Tap
All of my friends are into king Giz and though it took me a year an a half longer then most of them I've recently gotten way into them so good timing on the vid lol. Also AYOO JSR MUSIC hell yeah
Definitely good timing lol JSR music is awesome!
I love Murder of the Universe and Rat's Nest and Omnium Gatherum so this made me go crazy
I can't believe i actually got into this band after listening to eyes like the sky on shuffle on accident as my first listen
Oh my god hahaha
I say give Omnium Gatherum another go. Those songs grew on me after a few listens and it is a lot of fun. Maybe play it in the background for a while to get past that length thing.
If you do check out Rats Nest again, you should definitely have the lyrics to read along. It tells a pretty interesting story of a bleak alternate future (hopefully?) dystopian ecological disaster that really fits the music and makes the songs and album overall a lot more cohesive.
Also you’re not the first RUclipsr I have seen do an album ranking that didn’t like Rats Nest initially. I think for people that don’t love metal already, it’s a grower
Another tidal user, yes mate!!!! King Gizz were also my top two months in a row this year
Tidal is such a great platform!
Ending on Polygon (or basically ending on it) is such a great... coincidence? Seems like a perfect dessert
Your final ranking is pretty identical to mine except I am a Mind Fuzz enjoyer
my favourite thing about KG is that so many fans have different opinions on what is GOAT tier and also all respect each other - it's great!
Polygondwanaland is also my favourite album, its absolutely mindblowing (though Murder of the Universe is my 2nd favourite so arrrgggh lol). Also, based Intrasport enjoyer, that song is amazing.
The randomness of the order in which you listened to the albums was amazing lol
glad you loved intrasport its my fav off that album too, maybe i just have a thing for microtonal dance music
Loving the Jet Set Radio Future appreciation.
Got into them in december and i have listened to ten albums but they are still my favorite band
3 more this year baby
I'm a massive king gizzard fan so it took me less than a second to click on the video after seeing the thumbnail, for the most part your takes pretty much align with the majority of the fanbase (even tho putting FMB and omnium gatherum/murder of the universe this low seems crazy) i think listening to 20 albums by only one artist/band in such a short time can be kind of too heavy to really appreciate every nuance and really get into every style they've been exploring (it took me some time to get the spoken word narration on murder of the universe for example/not being that much into metal myself i had a hard time with ITRN before really enjoying it) so i would advise to come back to the albums you didn't fully enjoy from time to time without necessarily listen to a whole album in one sitting ofc. Anyway great video, super entertaining editing as usual + we gotta appreciate JSRF soundtrack as background music!!
I'll definitely make sure to go back and check out the albums I didn't enjoy as much because I agree, they probably need some time to grow on me. I'm glad you liked the video! JSR music is incredible :)
great band great channel. what need i say more
Ncie Video. Insane because I love Infest The Rat's Nest xD
Welcome to the Gizzverse, kid
sketches is underrated af in the community. a little heartbroken to hear the MOTU slander but it is understandably not for everyone
bro MOTU is just beautiful. the story telling, the narration, the sound, the blending.. it’s perfect.
Both great albums.
LW is definitely my favourite of their records, I grew up listening to a heap of microtonal stuff thanks to bands like Secret Chiefs 3, and this just fit like a glove for my taste, Supreme Ascendancy is prob my fav track of theirs period, along with Crumbling Castle
Yess happy to see some LW love
This is definitely my favourite video of yours! I had only heard the most recent album and Rattlesnake from flying microtonal banana but I reckon I’ve been convinced to go a little bit further. Where would you start with their discography, in your infinite gizzard wisdom?
Yay I'm really glad you liked the video! It's my favorite as well. I'm not really sure what a good starting point would be. I feel like it depends on what type of music you enjoy. If you liked Rattlesnake then you could just dive into the rest of FMB
@@KyleReidMu microtonality dub
You should try nonagon Infinity
And now three more this year 😳😳
Murder of the universe is by far the most complex album they've done, with the wicked drums and vocoder vocals in the last 3 songs. Especially the after seeing the KEXP footage of them playing that album really made it my favourite album from the gizzard discography. Allthough its ubderstandable why you wouldn't like it. keep it up man
Head/pill is absolutely beautiful
Amazing freakin video 👍! However I'm in your mind fuzz is my favorite album haha if you liked the first 4 songs im surprised you werent a fan of Am I in heaven.
My favorite of theirs is definitely I'm In Your Mind Fuzz. Just so much unfiltered energy.
You should do a deep dive into the other bands signed on flightless, babe rainbow, orb, stone field etc
The thing that surprised me most was your take on KG/LW and Omnium Gatherum. I feel like KG/LW get shit for being a bit bland or samey, and Omnium got a big pop-off for being this microcosm of their entire run.
And your take on Butterfly 3000 was a big shock, I feel like based on what I've seen that's one of the hardest albums for people to get into. It took Justin Hawkins of the Darkness going over the Catching Smoke video before I gave the album a fair shot. I love the Ya Love video, lmao
All in all, this was a cool video!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and also glad that there were some curveballs in there for you :)
I love 🦋 3000. It’s in the top three for me, maybe #1. I haven’t met anyone else who has it so high on their Giz list. KGLW has become my favorite band and even the albums of theirs that are my least favorite, I consider to still be good and interesting.
Yeah welcome mang i started listening at in your mind era and I always wondered how difficult it would be to get into them now. You listened in a good order. Paper mache was my first album too, welcome to the gizzverse man hope you see them live sometime. Seen them 4 times they are by far my fav live experience. Motu is the best gizz album so whatever we’ll agree to disagree but its cool im a dweeb. Great vid mang
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it. After listening to all these, I'd love to see them live! I've heard that they put on a killer show
MOTU is goated, and I just heard it yesterday haha. I've always wanted to hear an album with such a bizzare concept
according to their twitter at the end of the year you're gonna have to add 3 days to this challenge
Hype!
TIDAL USER WOOOOO, This video rocks though!!! I did this but in 4 days and I find it fun how everyone has different kg&lw takes but nonagon infinity remains in everyone's tops :D
Tidal is so based! I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Polygondwanaland is the one I go back to the most for whatever reason. That and fishing for fishies
Welcome to the gizzverse
Omnium is so fun, seeing Gaia live was so cool
Bro you think you're late, I don't feel worthy getting three albums in my first month of listening. My minds blooooown
Altered beast supremacy
Hello (:
@@evil_death_roll YOOOOOO
Chucky shrapnel
When I saw KGLW like 3 years afo they did a 25 min medley of head on pill while the entire room was transformed into a rowing moshpit
That sounds incredible
Kyle my man, you're videos are getting better like aged fine wine.
Please do a vid on the album 'Turn On The Bright Lights' by Interpol. It's a masterpiece.
Thank you Ryan!! I love that album :)
@@KyleReidMu Also Kyle, you should try doing a Guided By Voices video (obviously not every album cause that would be insane) 😂
You are definitely doing thee oh sees next
Love the band, love the video. My favourite is probably murder of the universe :( did you listen to their collaboration ep with tropical fuckstorm?
Glad you enjoyed the video! Sorry for hating on your favorite album lol. I didn't check out that album! Is it worth it?
@@KyleReidMu Tropical fuck storms sound is definitely a bit of an acquired taste but i loved it as a huge fan of both bands
@@KyleReidMu it’s pretty much just one long track split into 3 parts and it’s pretty fun and weird, but I definitely recommend TFS’ own stuff, their debut A Laughing Death in Meatspace it’s hilariously nutty, super fun noisy alt rock. A couple of the guys from TFS’s older band The Drones is great too, Feelin Kinda Free is a great album.
motu and gumboot are like some of my favorites wow
I'm big into taking psychedelics and exploring music in out of orbit states of conciousness. I do it once a week. I usually take Lsd and Psilocybin combined👁👍KG&LW I only discovered about 3 weeks ago and I've never been so excited to experience a band or artist in that state. I usually discover them while I'm tripping but these guys are so badass that they are the First to ever pre-book a flight with me. I havent even heard a full album and have no idea which one to start with. I'm thinking ponawanamagonda land or whatever but I'm just going to buy a ticket and take the ride.
My favourite band reviewed by my favourite music youtuber :-)
:)))
"I'd definitely listen to those 10 albums."
KGLW: Hold my beer
No need to fight, everyone loves Intrasport, my guy. Great inclusion of the little album and track fun facts. 10/10 video, keep it up! - a Gizzhead
(BTW, Timeland isn't a 'proper' album. It's intermission tracks for their 3 hour marathon shows ;))
Yes it is. Gizz themselves consider it their 19th studio album. Calling it just “intermission music” is like saying that MOTU is just “something really gross and stupid” (to paraphrase Stu).
@@marcotewlow8533 That might just be my favorite tidbit about MOTU. Stu saying he wanted to create something so stupid and gross only he would like it. And fair opinion. I'm just going based on how it's used, that it didn't get a proper digital release as well as Ambrose answering the Timeland question in an interview with it being "intermission music that got blown out of proportion" :). Fair point tho.
Yay! I'm glad a proper gizzhead enjoys the video. Intrasport is definitely a banger. I think I also read that Timeland was a cursed album or something like that??
@@KyleReidMu Yeah, the curse of Timeland sort of became a meme, lol. It first was the big mystery on the 'overhyped' album, then the leaks of the tracks, then the first announcement of the Timeland festival which was blown off due to Covid. The curse extended with a lot of shipments of Timeland vinyls being broken or somehow fucked up and when ROTCOT (Return Of The Curse Of Timeland, the successor to the Timeland festival) happened, they announced a crew member having gotten sick with Covid shortly after.
And no problem! Always love seeing people showing interest in this amazing band!
@@evil_death_roll yikes that sounds like a LOT of trouble with one little album haha
Infest the Rats Nest is probably my favorite album of the 2010s. Of course I'm an almost exclusive metal listener, but it's almost anything I'd want in an album
I'll give it some more listens eventually, I promise
I'd loved KG and LW the funky eastern sound had me hooked. There's a lot of bands around right now in turkey Altin gun started me on all that. Was at their show in Philly in 17. Your pretty correct on your ranking onminum is pretty good after taking it in. Candles is a great track that slips into funeral
Hot take: murder of the universe is incredible when viewed as three songs that cleverly reference the themes and musical motifs from other albums while still being original. While I don’t personally care for the tale of the altered beast, lightning lord vs balrog and murder of the universe are great prog rock and doom metal cuts
IM SO HAPPY NUCLEAR FUSION GOT SOME CRED

honey wake up, kyle posted a kgatlw video
Decided to try the band out when Omnium Gatherum came out and liked a few tracks but overall was not a fan, glad to realize that I chose the wrong place to start and will be giving them another shot for sure. Can’t wait to hear their experimental influences for myself, like with micro-tonalities, polyrhythms, and flutes
They definitely have something for everyone in their discography so I recommend just jumping around and you'll find something great :)
You should listen to Teenage Gizzard, it's a rerelease of their first EP and first ever singles if you liked 12BB and WB. If you really want the whole Gizzperience, there's also Demos, Vol. 1 + Vol. 2, which, as it's name says, is a demo album. It's Got some unreleased songs and a whole bunch of early versions of songs you already know
If that teenage gizzard EP is more of the 12BB vibe then I'll definitely check it out
I love KGLW, been listening to them for a while now.
They pretty good, fun live. Waiting for their best album to drop, I believe it hasn’t yet. Fav now is Paper Mache
I've yet to check out some live performances but I've heard they're incredible. Paper Mache is a great pick
I also feel like they’re going reach another level soon. They’re better players than ever, the recent live stuff shows how tight the entire band is, and they’ve reached into every genre. If they get back on their conceptual streak after the spring cleaning vibe of Omnium Gatherum, they’re definitely on track to make a perfect album.
