Return.

Listen to my favourite song from them, Witchcraft (and my favorite live version of it), while reading.

As you may have guessed by now I am a MASSIVE King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard fan. You may have clicked the link to see what the fuck it is or you got amazed that I too, love them. I will make this worthwile to both kinds.


WHAT THE FUCK IS A KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD?

King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard are an australian rock band. They consist of 6 members. They've released about 26 albums as of 2011. They do MANY genres and have a really cool and complex relationship with music. But who are the 6 band members?

Okay thats cool and all but what about the music?
ITS THE GREATEST THING EVER. King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard constantly step into new musical territory by making whatever the fuck they want. You like a genre? They probably have a song on it! Metal? PetroDragonic Apocalypse or Infest The rats Nest. Turkish House? Yeah they have that, It's called Intrasport. Its not just the genres. They love odd time signatures and polyrhythms and where it shines most is in their beautiful album known as Polygondwanaland. But what about lyrical content? Its even fucking better my friend, the lyrics portray a massive story in a thing known as the GIZZVERSE, more on that later. Ignoring the GIZZVERSE the lyrics typically talk about things ranging from Cookiedog69's dog to enviromentalism but holy shit do they have their ways with words like "GAIA SET TO SELF-DESTRUCT, BLAME ALL THOSE LAZY FOOLISH FUCKS!" goes so hard.

SO WHAT IS THE GIZZVERSE?

Okay so for the upcoming part you may or may not want to delve into Infest The Rats Nest yourself by reading the lyrics on Genius or smth bc the notations are quite neat because I'll be spoiling the plotline of it but there is all other 25* albums. BUT IF YOU CARE NOT THE GIZZVERSE IS THE COOLEST THING EVER BECAUSE YOU HAVE EVENTS OF INFEST THE RATS NEST WHERE AN ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANT VIRUS STARTS PLAUGUEING EARTH AND THE RICH ESCAPE TO MARS LEAVING EVERYONE ELSE BEHIND ON EARTH SO 2 GROUPS OF PEOPLE VENUSIAN 1 AND 2 DECIDE TO MOVE TO VENUS IN ORDER TO HIDE ASWELL BUT VENUSIAN 1 FLIES INTO A SOLAR FLARE AND DIES WHILST VENUSIAN 2 ARRIVES ON VENUS BUT THE ENTIRE PLANET IS UNINHABITABLE SO THEY SET THEMSELVES ON FIRE AND DIE AND BOTH OF THE GROUPS ARRIVE TO HELL WHERE SATAN POINTS THEM TO THE RATS NEST THE RATS BEING RICH PEOPLE SO THEY LITERALLY JUST UNLEASH A COOL LITTLE WAR AGAINST THE ENTIRETY OF RICH PEOPLE MARS. YOU CANNOT TELL ME THAT ISNT THE COOLEST THING EVER.
I feel like the snippet lore of Infest The Rats Nest should entice you to check out what else they did in the gizzverse and let me tell you it gets far fucking cooler.
