King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard unleash new single "Dragon"
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard share the second taste of their forthcoming double LP album.
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard present “Dragon,” their new single/video from their forthcoming double LP album, PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation.
Following lead single “Gila Monster" which was released in May, “Dragon” sees King Gizzard reach for the the metal undertones of their album, Infest The Rat’s Nest, and is presented alongside a video directed by Jason Galea.
“Over the last two months I dusted off my music video computer to slay the 10 minute ‘Dragon,’” Galea says. “I wanted to explore a harsh distorted visual palette using my live visual setup mixed with PS1 cutscene inspired animation and studio footage I filmed of the band.The animation was created using Cinema 4D and processed through After Effects and a Tachyons circuit bent video unit.”
Of “Dragon,” drummer Michael Cavanagh says, “Ahh my sweet baby Dragon is here fresh out of hell’s womb, summoned by the humans at the end of their pitiful road. It’s hard, fast and here to disrupt the natural order and annihilate everything in its path, so turn it up Sammy!"
In August, King Gizzard embark on an EU/UK tour which culminates at End of the Road Festival.
PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation, arrives on 16 June via KGLW.
