King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have announced their 29th album, Entropy, which is will be on on December 4 through heir own (p)doom records label. Like its predecessor, Alien Metal, Entropy is rooted in the group’s fascination with Eurorack, a modular synthesiser system involving diodes and cables that looks like something out of vintage sci-fi and delivers sounds that rewire how you make music and even what music can be.
Joey Walker first introduced bandmate Stu Mackenzie to the gear some years back, lighting the touchpaper to an “exciting, exploratory” obsession that quickly ensnared the whole group, to the extent that they now tour with massive Eurorack setup they treat like a seventh member; its name is ‘Nathan’. Nathan has flexed its muscles at the ‘rave’ shows King Gizzard have played across the world, and was the backbone of Alien Metal.
Following the album announcement, the band has also shared their latest single, “Rogue Wave” and as whole, the ditty is pretty amazing by how the soul shaking instrumentation and mind dazzling vocal performance gives listeners a chance to hear King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard sound more bolder and creative that ever before. Clearly, the band has grown with their music and hopefully, the upcoming album will sound just as good.
