King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard talk about their new happy album

[@EarlSmithie]

- Interviewer: 3 records in almost one year... KG, LW and now Butterfly 3000. What is going on?! - Stu: Uhm, yeah I mean like, I don't know, we just, uhm... we just like to make music.

[@IIIshottyIII]

i mean its kind of a silly question if you know anything about kglw you know theyve always made tons of music and there's never been a big gap in their releases

[@michaeljenkinsmusic1049]

Stu: I dunno, sometimes you just kind of think of something and it becomes a song before you know it, you know you're just getting in there and you're thinking about something, and you know you're kind of thinking about the song and there's this music

I know! And the only interviewer that doesn't treat them as stupid stoners and ask "Who is King Gizzard? Who is the Lizard Wizard?"

If the music business was how it was 30-40 years ago, this band would be on a major label and pushed to front like U2 or Queen or Pink Floyd.

[@grim..sentinel9500]

In a way, thank god they aren't, you know? More organic this way :)

[@Trevorwilliamjohnsonthefirst]

I could watch an infinite amount of footage of stu talking about songwriting

[@AlexMuccino]

THESE ARE THE BEST! I love hearing stu dive deep into his songwriting process / his outlook on the band in general. us gizz heads itch for stuff like this

[@NayrbRellimer]

My favorite thing about this band is that they're not afraid to take bold risks and experiment with new sounds. They wouldn't have released Flying Microtonal Banana or Nonagon Infinity otherwise.

[@cosmonautjane]

my favorite records too, their experimental stuff is so good

[@sentientcardboarddumpster7900]

And then to release an album for absolutely free. More than free even, allowing fans to potentially make money off of it. Unheard of until then

[@coolwipp10]

"OK,so... Our first album was a traditional garage rock banger, how do we follow that up?" "what about a spaghetti western narrative story?"

[@gusgus420]

And it sounds fucking awesome

[@El-Burrito]

Fishing For Fishies and Butterfly 3000 are my go to summer albums.

[@ladybugmansion1327]

OKAY. I appreciate this album and this band beyond words. The sheer amount of thought and life they cook into each of their songs is mind boggling. The fact no interviewer has asked exactly what their muse is or how they manage to conjure up their lyrics absolutely blows my mind. The lyrics they bring to life are fucking astounding and I have always wondered what it is that drives this aspect of their music because it paints a whole new layer to their songs beyond the insanity of 7/4 timing and releasing 5 albums in a year. Every album of theirs I hear feels like being hit by a train in the best way. Look forward to seeing the gizzies on tour in the states in 2022. Keep fucking rocking you insane bastards ily

[@bars3543]

Yeah exactly they are great not only quantitatively but also qualitatively as well. I wouldn't personally expect every song to be a banger from a band that released 18 albums in less than a decade but hey here we are

[@marialeg2367]

You should check out the interview he did on "Songwriters on Process"

[@3voor12extra7]

Thanks so much!

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

they've matured like so much, was listening to I'm In Your Mind Fuzz the other day, and i absolutely loved that album back in like 2015, it had such the sound of what rock music truly is, there was a youthful essence and they've grown up a lot.

I'm so happy with this interview. Thank you.

[@LaceChaser]

How these blokes all came together is insane. Imagine any other band creating this much music and it being so good. I know not every album is a total hit to everyone, but none of them are bad. I don’t know any band that doesn’t have an album that’s not that good.

[@Daaaliett]

Such a sick interview

[@tten8192]

tbh, I thought their 3 most recent albums were not as strong relative to their discography, but still good work nonetheless. I think their best work comes when they are touring and are incredibly busy. 2016/2017 were their most busy years with writing and touring and probably the best music they ever created came from that time. I hope when they start touring again we will see their creativity flourish.
