Progressive rock, psychedelic rock, garage rock, jazz fusion, heavy metal. Ni fu ni fa.

This band gets a lot of respect from me for the amount of albums they put out in a short amount of time. And it seems people respect the quality. I've tried listening to a few albums, and this one I've tried a few times. However, the songs still seem bland and very similar to each other.

Raucous contemporary psychedelic-prog that is musically on point and never loses an ounce of energy from start to finish. But I lost interest somewhere in the middle. Fave Songs: Robot Stop, Big Fig Wasp, Gamma Knife

3/5 Not really my style of music. I can appreciate the talents and think it is a great listen for those that are into the Prog Rock stuff.

Love what they are going for, but for me this album is likely more fun to play than listen to. I do need to look into my King Gizzard though cause some songs of theirs really work with my sensibilities.

Like a Perpetuum mobile, this keeps on going and going and going - never loosing any energy or momentum. Pretty impressive!

Interesting and fairly unique, some of it gave me Stereolab vibes. A little repetitious in tone though maybe that's supposed to be more design than flaw given the idea that it is meant to be one continuous loop.

The name is off putting, as well as the fact my ex is a fan, but they weren’t as weird as I thought they’d be.

Expected better.

Pretty good

Have we gotten a Gizzard Lizard Wizard album before? I really liked the opening song, reminded me of a video game or show theme. The rest of the songs quickly started blending together, though, with that rough guitar.

In order to provide the concept of continuity front to back, they just made every song sound identical. It's an ok song.

Disappointing. I was looking forward to this, but it is just buzzy, high energy rock with a jazzy randomness and a vocalist that doesn't do much for me. It all starts to sound the same unless the repeat the title over and over and over again (I'm looking at you Mr. Beat). There's nothing that particularly catchy or engaging... maybe the last track, Road Train, has a glimmer, but by that time i have long ago checked out.

Another Australian obscurity. It gets better as the album progresses although there is a definite riff through the first two songs. Not really my thing, but certainly more melodic as it goes on and not quite as “hard” rock as it first appears.

Too much noise haha

I feel like this is definitely unique but just not enough for me to get past the strangeness of it if that makes sense. I think I just didn't really understand it and like I'm not really the correct audience?
