At the typical record-release rate, musicians put out an album every couple of years. It’s an impressive feat when artists manage to put out albums yearly. For Australian psych-rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, these conventions are merely suggestions — Polygondwanaland is the band’s latest album and their fourth full-length release this year.
Polygondwanaland is less cacophonous than King Gizzard’s previous works, amounting to more of a swirling psychedelic vortex. Chock full of weird time signatures, eclectic melodies and nonsensical lyrics, Polygondwanaland will either give you an out-of-body experience or an aneurism — or both.
