FIRST TIME HEARING KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD! "IRON LUNG" REACTION

[@shraniken]

Everyone in this band brings 110%. Except Ambrose, who insists on 120%.

FROG BREATH, STEAM TENT! NECK PARALYSIS! FROG BREATH, STEAM TENT! SCARED PRECARIOUS!

[@penepleto1210]

I'd argue Cavs brings 200%

@@penepleto1210 but he does it with such a calm demeanour whereas Amby looks like hes mid panic attack half the time hes on screen 😂

[@fardass3535]

King gizzard and the lizard wizard is by far my favorite Psychadelic heavy metal jazz fusion blues band.

[@Ty91681]

Let's not forget the synth side

[@josiek5989]

I am almost 60, and have grown up with so many great bands, but KG&TLW are the very best of them all. The musicianship live, the complexity (yet it is hooky), polyrhythms, polymeters, microtonal, etc. is off the charts. The album that Iron Lung came off (Ice Death Planets Lungs Mushrooms And Lava) has a song in each of the Western modes. Iron Lung is Aeolian mode. They only went in with that concept, and wrote the songs, did the album in a fucking week! I can't get over their level of genius. Saw them for the first time live last fall, and it was so amazing we are going to Red Rocks in June where they will play over nine hours of music in 3 shows, and not repeat a single song. Lucky for us they are as prolific and hardworking as they are geniuses. Dive deep my friend, you won't be disappointed.

[@iliasmastoris529]

Aeolian? I couldn't work it out. Magma I think is Phrygian and Lava is Locrian. Mycelium my guess is Ionian. The others?

[@josiek5989]

@@iliasmastoris529 The title gives each mode in order: Ice = Ionian (Mycelium) Death =Dorian (Ice V) Planets =Phrygian (Magma) Lungs=Lydian(Lava) Mushrooms = Myxolydian(Hell's Itch) And=Aeolian (Iron Lung) Lava= Locrian(Gleise710) Cool eh?

[@TheNucaKola]

I was a Red Rocks too! Such an incredible place for a future legendary band!

[@FruitPuppyYT]

Could not agree more. W post hope you are having a good day today

[@meramsey]

Hope you had a good time at Red Rocks, those were my first shows too! Never thought I'd have a new all-time favorite band in my mid 40s lol!

[@kyles5513]

Dude. Best BAND ever.

[@pizzarellayt]

This is probably one of the best modern bands. They're genre hoppers and they're prolific, yet dont do one genre better than the others and dont sacrifice quality for quantity (granted, I'm not too far into their discography, and I'll listen to their 6th album soon). 5 albums in 1 year, twice. Once in 2017, once in 2022, with 3 of them from 2022 being released in the same month. If you want some more, I'd suggest Mars For The Rich or The River (both live on KEXP). Two wildly different songs, the former being stoner metal, while the latter being a jam session in 5/4 for most of the song.

[@TheGallantDrake]

Some of their “misc” albums like Oddments or Omnium Gatherum can be a bit hit or miss since they contain songs or ideas that didn’t quite make it onto other albums, but they’re definitely outliers in their discography as a whole, and they’re not so much bad as inconsistent. KGLW is merely interesting at their worst, but their best is incredible.

[@alcedob.5850]

my personal favourite kexp is lord of lightning

[@Ty91681]

Take modern out of that sentence and I'd agree. Let's not pigeonhole them into only competing with modern bands. These guys are as good or better than most of the classic rock bands from back in the day , Zeppelin and Floyd included. If these guys came up in the 60s or 70s people would be proclaiming them the greatest rock band of all time. Some of us are anyway. Hell, take rock out of my sentence and I'd still agree.

[@LAckasAMP]

The red shirt guy, Ambrose has his own band too, called The Murlocs. It’s a bit different, but it’s always cool to hear more Amby, because his voice is amazing in both bands.

[@hectorchainlock6953]

They have all multiple projects

[@Lounge-lizard]

Welcome along to the ride brother 🤘🏼

[@ricepice]

Love the reaction brother. Magma on this KEXP session is also an absolute brain melter. The Gizz are on another level right now.

[@magma_fire_bagwan]

MAGMA, FIRE BAGWAN-

[@tillzillz]

I've been obsessed with them since discovering them from Nonagon. love seeing the genuine joy they're bringing you. it's a deep, but extremely inviting ocean to dive into... ENJOY!

[@andreasdalevold2514]

Prob one of my favorite bands! If you allready hooked on this then your in for a wild ride.. I recomond checking out the KEXP Mururder Of the Universe consert, and if i have to pick one song from it then its Lord Of Lightning. I have seen them live twice and its the most fun conserts i ever been to. Big recomendation

[@kyles5513]

Someone put together murder of the universe from redrock into one video which is actually pretty well done. Would be cool to see someone see that for the first time..

[@dragonofice24]

if you like trippy stuff you'll love the music video for this song

[@mattkronert47]

There's so many to check out, spanning so many genres but you should check out one called "change" from they're newest album.

[@brodieorr5393]

Best band in the world! Definitely make sure you buy tickets to see them this year

[@TheNucaKola]

I’ve seen these guys live 6 times, they’re absolutely a must see live, bucket list band for anyone serious into music. An authentic face melting experience! 🫠

[@agathar_v]

you gotta see magma live too, also incredible

[@tylerrudder8994]

As a jam band fan you should definitely check out “the dripping tap” from the bonaroo 22 set, there’s great video of it and it’s a pretty next level jam.

[@kurtiskissell378]

You gotta do kexp version of crumbling castles into the fourth color by the same band. Also I love seeing people enjoy gizz for the first time

[@iangwynne77]

Greatest band of this generation. Just outstanding output and musicianship. Had the pleasure of seeing them live 3 times, each time different to the last. Stu took time to talk to me and my son who was 10 at the time at the Green man festival, Wales. He's now 16 and playing 3 instruments, has his own band and studying sound production. Huge influence on my son's young life. ❤

[@AyyyGabagool]

Please do more king gizz reacts

[@iliasmastoris529]

You are witnessing the emergence of the best jam band ever.

[@mattreynolds612]

Live streamed summer tour '24 How many here after that.... ✅ It out!!! on KZbin

[@DeskPopDaveReacts]

@@mattreynolds612 will do!!

[@Dr._Geno]

deffinetly check out change from their album changes.

[@benmeier5199]

the deadhead to gizz fan pipeline continues...

[@lsand073]

Please check out some more my friend that was awesome. My other top suggestions would be Magma Kexp or Astroturf. Two other newer songs that they absolutely murder on. Astroturf being very jazzy.

[@jezblades9913]

Part of this song sounds like Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine. Not that this is criticism!
