[@The_medicine_frog]

I know you are never going to see this, nor would you have any reason to make a documentary on this band but it would make for an interesting video if you would explore the history of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. They might not be that big, but they are by far one of the most bizarre bands out there, and to my knowledge the only one to preform an entire concert for a banana slug. Love these music documentaries, and I look forward to future ones!

Supposedly the band uses spreadsheets to differ every performance from each other. Enjoy their music for what it means to you and pass it on to others as and when. There’s honestly no other group like them, and I hope they bring each and every one of you as much joy and excitement as me.

[@GuyWhoLikesTheSnarkies1435]

12:47 Love Changes so much, I think that record is somehow pretty underappreciated in the long run because of the more laid back and mellower vibe of the music seem to turn off others' attention to the music. But for me, giving the record the chance to grow is a very rewarding experience. The lengthy eponymous track from the album would become one of my favorites from the band's entire discography and yes, it's somehow too long and dragging for some but I don't personally think every moment is wasted there. It probably makes sense if you have prior experiences with specific genres or styles, particularly the now-obscure subgenre of prog Canterbury Scene because imo it's quite reminiscent of the genre for many reasons.

[@ahealthkit2745]

Totally agree.

[@Ali_Clarkson]

Agreed! I often find KGLW albums don't immedietely jump out at me and Changes was no different but I like to play their new albums in the background while I'm working and Changes quickly grew on me, to the point it's up there with my favourite albums and contains two of my all-time favourite tracks No Body and Exploding Suns.

That album is in my top 3 of all time. They are legitimately on TOOL's level without taking themselves seriously, resurrecting a style of metal that was mostly dead since the 70s/80s, effortlessly being +40min about pollution and Godzilla, having absurdly rich lyrics, bringing fresh new polyrhythms in 2023, and that spice it has from Yes - Fragile.

Funny how this pops up on my recommendations and starts with talking about Gumboot Soup. Only last night has this album clicked all of a sudden after the song Beginner's Luck randomly played in my head despite only hearing it a few times. I knew about the band for a few years but didn't catch onto them until back in June when I heard about PetroDragonic Apocalypse being a progressive thrash metal album. That had me checking it out. Now, I've listened to all their albums with most of them being played many times and have quickly become one of my all-time favourite bands. I'll always be welcoming any new King Gizzard releases but what I would like to see in the near future is how they would do with a full hip hop album (already a few hip hop songs so why not an album) or another take on metal to see where they go after PetroDragonic Apocalypse.

[@MatthewNorsa]

Great essay, I would add that you mention they have entered their "jam era" as you call it. Brother, they've always been a jam band, it's not their new era, it's what they've always been. I'm in your mind fuzz is a clear example of the jamming qualities that they still were using way back in 2014. Even their earliest records like 12 bar bruise have kraut underlying theme to them, which is a genre heavy in it's jam deliberations. P.S. that ad in the video was so annoying.

[@Middle8]

For sure, Head On/Pill from 2013 is a 16 minute jam! Maybe I should have said they’d returned to their jam band roots or something. Meant more that after Omnium Gatherum/Post-Pandemic, they’d be the studio together jamming heavily. It lead to the release of 3 records in one month in that style.

[@ileutur6863]

I wonder if gizz is really so goofy and laid back behind the scenes as they market themselves. Their bass player said his parts on one album were completely done by synth because he got sick for a while. Seems like their hyperproductivity does come at a cost

In my honest opinion. Nothing these guys have done can hold a candle to Petrodragonic Apocalypse. Mark my words, this album will be rediscovered in a few decades and deemed one of the best of all time. They're legitimately on TOOL's level without taking themselves seriously. The album is effortlessly +40 min about pollution and Godzilla, has absurdly rich lyrics, resurrects a style of metal that was dead since the 70s, brings fresh new polyrhythms to the table in 2023, and that spice it has from Yes - Fragile. It's so good. The way the whole album ties back-to-back is absolutely remarkable. I could call it their magnum opus if it wasn't in a tie with K.G. and L.W. combined.

I went on a 6 hour train ride from Munich to Budapest in December 2016 and listened to Nonagon Infinity on repeat. It got better each time.

I think it would be really interesting if King Gizzard explored a more country/bluegrass sound. Fishing for Fishies is one of my favorite albums by them and kinda dips a toe in that direction. Plus, Paper Mache Dream Balloon shows they can pull off an all acoustic album. P.S.-I really enjoyed both your videos on King Gizzard. I'm pretty sure your first one was my intro to them that inspired me to check out their music.

These guys are the best band out right now, just saw them live and they sound great. They put on a great show. Solid album review and well made video.
