“Everything about King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is governed by perpetual forward motion, from their music’s relentless momentum to their frequent reinventions to their tendency to release new albums with the regularity of a Substack newsletter. But while there’s a lot of joy to be had in hitching yourself to the Melbourne psych-rockers’ careening locomotive, the group’s recent track record suggests they could benefit from erecting some guard rails, with the honky-glam hoedown of Fishing for Fishies and the doomsday thrash of Infest the Rats’ Nest veering too sharply into the silly and the sullen, respectively.”
“The always ambitious and always intricate King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have released another sonic minefield of an album. L.W is laden with staccato synth grooves, psychedelic guitar, and other signature influences the six-piece know all too well.”
“It’s only been three months since King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard dropped their last album, K.G.. Now, the band have dropped what they describe as a companion album to K.G., titled L.W.
The nine-track album includes the three singles that prefaced it, ‘Pleura’, ‘O.N.E.’ and ‘If Not Now, Then When?’, and was dropped on Bandcamp. In a statement, front-man Stu Mackenzie described how the band initially had no plans to release a companion album to K.G. Their experiences from last year, however, changed their mind. “
“Further to the release of recent single ‘Pleura’, the ebullient Australian rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have released ‘L.W.’ – the band’s seventeenth album and perhaps one of their most intriguing musical collections to date.
Recorded remotely during lockdown last year, this barnstorming album continues the journey where its predecessor K.G left off. It also finely showcases their use of microtonal tuning, which was first seen on with their 2017 album ‘Flying Microtonal Banana’.”
“The prolific Melbourne psych-rock army King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are famous for cranking out new albums at a frantic, baffling clip. Just three months ago, the band released an album called K.G. When they announced that one, the band said that the album would be “both a stand-alone work and also part of a bigger musical picture.” That bigger musical picture has other parts, too. Last week, the band announced plans to follow that one up with another new companion-piece album called L.W. That album is now out there in the world.”
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have released yet another new studio album with the arrival of L.W., the companion to the Australian rock band’s surprise 2020 K.G. album.
Out today (February 25th), L.W. includes the previously-shared singles “O.N.E.”, “If Not Now, Then When?”, and “Pleura”. The album is available to stream on digital platforms like Spotify, and the band will donate $1 from every download of L.W. on Bandcamp to Greenfleet, an eco-friendly organization that plants native biodiverse forests in the band’s native Australia and New Zealand.”
“After sharing “If Not Now, Then When?,” “O.N.E.” and “Pleura” in recent months, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have now released their third album in the band’s series of “explorations into microtonal tunings,” L.W., the follow-up to 2020’s K.G.”
“Prolific Aussie psych-rockers King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard are back with their latest album, L.W. It comes on the heels of K.G., which dropped just three months ago. Stream it via Bandcamp below.”
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard’s 17th album, L.W., is out Friday and you can stream it now because it’s already Friday in Australia and the band have flipped the switch on their Bandcamp. This is third album in their “microtonal” series (that includes 2020’s K.G. and 2017’s Flying Mictrotonal Banana) that explores “the notes between the notes.” The record ranges from psychedelic folk to doomy heaviness.”
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are back again…again. The follow-up to 2020’s K.G. is the aptly titled L.W. – and the Australian band have picked up exactly where they left off.”
“King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have made it official — thier 17th album is titled L.W. and it will be out digitally next week (Feb 26) via Flightless, with physical editions out in the spring. The band are calling it a companion piece to last year’s K.G. and an extension of the musical explorations of the “notes between the notes” first heard on 2017’s Flying Mictrotonal Banana.”
“For many bands, three months is only half of a promotional cycle. But for King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, the three months that passed since their last album K.G. means they’re due for the follow-up. Today, Melbourne’s hardest-working rock band has announced L.W., out February 26th, and they’ve also shared the new single “Pleura”.”
“Late last year, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard shared plans to release their 17th studio album L.W., the direct follow-up to K.G. and third album in the band’s series of “explorations into microtonal tunings.” The record is out on February 26, and today, they’ve shared a new cut of the album, “Pleura.””
“Aussie rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard will release their 17th studio album, L.W., next Friday, February 26. The band previewed the nine-track LP with the video for “Pleura,” which was played live and filmed earlier today in Melbourne.
L.W. serves as a companion to King Giz’s November 2020 studio album, K.G.. Additionally, the LP is the third volume in the group’s exploration of microtonal tunings following 2017’s Flying Microtonal Banana and K.G.. The band previously shared L.W. singles “O.N.E.” and “If Not Now, Then When?”
“According to the band’s album announcement on Thursday, L.W. can be considered a companion piece to the recordings heard on K.G., so fans should be able to hear a sonic connection between the two projects.
For their latest recording, King Gizzard also shared its affiliated video which was impressively performed live, filmed, recorded, edited, and uploaded to YouTube all on February 18th.”
“The endlessly prolific Australian psych-rock cowboys King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard lost a band member last year, but they haven’t let that slow them down. Late last year, the band released an album called K.G. Since then, they’ve dropped the loose tracks “If Not Now, Then When?” and “O.N.E.” As it turns out, those are the first two songs on another new Lizard Wizard album, and that album will arrive next week.”
“Melbourne-based psych-rock group King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have just announced the release of their seventeenth album, entitled L.W. The band refers to it as a companion piece to their previous studio album, K.G., and it will be out next Friday (Feb. 26) on Caroline/Flightless. In addition to this announcement, they have shared a video for a song from the album, “Pleura.” The video, which features the band performing live, was directed by frequent King Gizzard collaborator John Angus Stewart of PHC Films. Check it out below, along with the cover art and tracklist for the album. “
“King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have returned with “O.N.E.”, marking their first new outing of 2021.The kaleidoscopic “O.N.E” is teamed with a video directed and edited by Alex McClaren, and follows the band’s December 2020 single “If Not Now, Then When?”.
“The psychedelic outlaws are widely tipped to be focussing on a new album, the follow up to ‘K.G.’. No word yet on an official release date, but the band have shared a fresh single. Out now, ‘O.N.E.’ is a storming psych monster, one informed by the incredible energy of their live shows.”
