King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard actually managed to release five full (and very different) records during 2017.
The final piece of the massively ambitious puzzle landed on 30 December, and it's called Gumboot Soup. We kinda anticipated its release given the sharing of new songs "Greenhouse Heat Death", "The Last Oasis", "All Is Known", and "Beginner's Luck" over the festive period.
King G's final LP follows Polygondwanaland, Murder Of The Universe, Flying Microtonal Banana, and Sketches Of Brunswick East (a collab with Mild High Club). All were released last year.
