OG Toadies Lisa and Charles REACT to King Gizzard's Crumbling Castle (Live on KEXP)

[@RickyBarleybaler]

"That guy looks like a baby" haha ambrose IS a baby. He's everyone's baby

[@PaulDragicevich]

The River on KEXP is overlooked as far as reactions. There's just too much stuff!

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Hey Paul! It’s Charles - love that there is so much! Reaction video material for days!!😂 Thx for the suggestion!

[@boltron7674]

They no longer have 2 drummers, Cavs is the man! Go see them live! Every show is different, their set lists change nightly and they are a ton of fun.

[@YukonWilleh]

Every memeber has at least one other band as well. ( the murlocs is my fave) They run their own label. A fave from their label is tropical fuck storm)

[@SamG259]

And I don’t know if anyone else has said it, but Stu (lead singer) does all the mixing on their KEXP sessions. He’s an alien Edit: just got to the end of the video lol, Stu!

[@dignan4]

They’re in Austin and Houston 11/15 and 11/16/24! The Austin show is one of their 3-hour marathon gigs and I can’t recommend enough that you go to that one. I was lucky enough to get to see their Hollywood Bowl marathon set this past June- it was absolutely amazing. Pure magic, pure joy. Thank you for checking out the Gizz! If it pleases the hosts, I’d love to recommend you guys watch either their live video of them performing ‘Magma’ at Red Rocks 6/8/23 or their music video for ‘Dragon’. I guarantee you’ll love both!! Also, Stu mixes all their KEXP sessions (each of which are amazing). Cheers!

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Hey Dignan - it’s Charles. We should all have a gathering in Austin! It would be amazing to see them perform! Thanks for the recommendations! We are definitely becoming Gizzers too!

[@dignan4]

Hey, Charles! I’d be in for sure! I’ve got tickets to The Gorge (marathon), Troutdale, OR and Vancouver, B.C. all in September so I’d be all refreshed for acTexas trip! If you guys wanted to zip on up for The Gorge show I’ve got tickets and room at a nice spot at the Gorge campground.

[@agodlike_tazmaniandevil2305]

Iron Lung and Magma live on KEXP are some of the best examples of Gizz working at their jammy peak, if you loved this you’re sure to love those two tracks. Stu - Lead Singer/Guitarist/Flute/Misc. Instruments Joey - Secondary Singer/Lead Guitarist/Misc. Instruments Ambrose - Lead Singer/Sax/Keys/Harmonica/Percussion/Misc. Instruments Cook(ie) - Rhythm Guitar Cavs - Drums Lucas - Bass/Misc. Instruments Eric - Drums/Theremin (Eric left the band in 2020, he was the drummer wearing glasses)

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Sweet!! Thanks for the info agodlike!!

[@Furao80]

The audio mixer is the main guy singing with that odd guitar. Stu is kinda the mastermind of the whole band, I guess you'd say. I would second the suggestion for Dragon. Also, their microtonal stuff is really unique too, like the KG or LW albums. One of my personal favorites is the second album they put out, Eyes like the sky. Kinda psychedelic surf-western accompanying a narration book-on-tape type deal.

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks for info Furao80! It’s Charles. We did just review Dragon this week based on y’all’s suggestions. All I can say is “Holy shit”! Love hearing about your faves so we can delve further!

[@SamG259]

Best band in the world!! Y’all are awesome

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks so much Sam!! Appreciate the kind words and you aren’t kidding!! They are so damn amazing!!

[@koda90]

you mention the lead singer being able to do lots of different voices - he even does throat singing nowadays! great video, very entertaining to see your guys' reactions :)

[@bloodhoundsoldier7445]

idk what the fuck a toadie is but i'm also a gizzhead so it also sounds crazy lol good reaction guys, love seeing so many new people in the gizzverse

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Hey Bloodhoundsoldier! It’s Charles - 😂😂love the Toadie comment! Thanks for watching - we are definitely going to be reviewing more King Gizz! In fact we recorded Dragon this week so it should be out soon

[@Ty91681]

I beleive stu does all the mixing

[@rebak3565]

Y'all are too wholesome.

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

A quality I always strive for! 😂😂. Thanks for watching!

[@oImighty]

If you like heavier stuff, I definitely recommend Dragon. The music video is dope and hilarious, too.

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks for the suggestion! We just did a reaction video to that song yesterday based on your suggestion. It fuckin blew our mind!!! Amazing!! We will be posting it soon!

[@oImighty]

​@@JackalopeTalesChannel Sick! Looking forward to it

[@Kablistikai]

Love the reactions, gizz is so diverse but they always manage to entertain, would absolutely love seeing more gizz and can promise you gizz fans will eat this content up

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

We are now gizz fans too! You guys have turned us onto some cool stuff. Thanks!

[@dunnright00]

I have '24 tickets to see them in San Diego, and the Gorge (WA), but now I want to do a road trip and to to Austin/Houston and hopefully meet up with you all! Love the excitement you have listening to these!

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

That would be so cool! We are hoping to get to the Austin show - and it’d be great to visit and hang out with y’all!

[@HollisLopez26]

I swear this will be the best thing you've heard, listen their song "Magma" at Red Rocks 6/8/23. Jesus lord it's so good.

[@Kablistikai]

I second this, quite literally the sickest thing ever

[@ShineOnBenevolentSun]

Thirded. So funny to think how mind-blowing Crumbling Castle (and all of the rest of Polygondwanaland) was when it came out... and how it's now dwarfed by almost everything coming out since 😮

[@HollisLopez26]

@@ShineOnBenevolentSun I was thinking the same thing. Last October 2022 was incredible, then Petro… just amazing

[@radiofreejenn0]

My husband and I saw them 5 times in one week back in June including all 3 Red Rocks shows. We saw them in Asheville last year. Experiencing them live is on another level. We have tickets to 3 shows next year…so far 😅

[@jorgeclarkson8286]

Do The River please it's such a vibe

[@Ty91681]

The whole song slowly crumbles as the song goes on

[@charliervr]

2:03 loved the sync!

[@mattkronert47]

Ya'll should make a trip to see them during their annual Red Rocks show next fall. They are fucking unreal live

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

That would be amazing!! A huge caravan to see the event!!

[@mattkronert47]

@@JackalopeTalesChannel September 8th and 9th. They do 3 shows in 2 days. All different sets each time

[@johnhennessey5]

Haha it actually wasn’t his kid but his girlfriend at the time who put the stickers on the blue yamaha, now his wife!

[@josk6455]

if you guys are a big fan of the story telling aspect of their music and some of the heavier psychedelic stuff i highly recommend checking out their album murder of the universe, some of my all time favorite story writing and some weird heavy sounds

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks for the suggestion! It’s Charles - we will check that out! I’m so damned overwhelmed by all their stuff, I love y’all’s guidance!! Thanks again!

[@kyleduncan7282]

Y’all should come to the OKC show @ the criterion in NOV ‘24. I saw Gizz there in 2022 on Halloween and it was Awesome. Huge Fan of King Gizz and the Todies!

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks so much Kyle! It’s Charles - I would definitely be up for a road trip to Oklahoma!

[@leghornfoghat6673]

Why do you have 2 drummers? Allman Brothers band drummer Jaimoe ask Duane Allman why do we have 2 drummers? Duane said because James Brown and Otis Redding have 2 drummers!

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

I loved when the Melvin’s had two drummers! Playing live with two drummers is a percussion destruction! Love that sound!

[@jerhew8]

If you like King Gizzard...check out these bands: Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, Bighorn Sheep, Idiots of Idealism, King Buffalo, Dead Soft Not saying any of them are quite like the Gizz, but you'll like them

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Thanks for the suggestions! Love finding out about new bands from y’all!

[@MrNoubari]

You should check a live version it's out there of Gaia/Motor Spirit, 2 heavier song that are so good together

[@drizzd1]

You guys should react to some live footage! Maybe boogieman Sam from red rocks in 2022

[@barakbr71]

If you love unique gears i can reccommend you their Nuclear Fusion (Live KEXP)

[@di3g0nat0r]

not a cult

[@Metalman72718]

Highly reccomend static electricity by king gizzard they use microtonal tuning to create a amazing rock song with one of their greatest solos make sure to listen to the studio version and not the live! love your vids keep it up from Ireland

[@JackalopeTalesChannel]

Wow tomsheehan6215! So appreciate you watching!! It’s Charles - we will definitely check out Static! Thanks for the suggestion!
