The lo-fi septet is certainly an unusual assembly - three guitarists, two drummers, a bassist, and a harmonica player - but they wouldn’t have it any other way. King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard sounds like a transmission from garage rock’s past heard over the crackling transistors of a handheld radio. It doesn't get any better.KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD IN CONCERT: Audio for both shows was recorded by Craig Lawrence, and then mixed by Gizz mastermind Stu Mackenzie at the band’s studio in Melbourne Australia and mastered specially for vinyl. While the festival was canceled due to severe weather, this recording is one of two shows Gizz played at Barracuda (RIP) in downtown Austin and we were set up to capture it in all its glory. LP2 features the bands triumphant return to LEVITATION in 2016 and they are firing on all cylinders and celebrating the release of their Nonagon Infinity LP. These 2014 live versions feature early versions and a unique look into the creative process of a band that was about to explode onto the world scene. right after this tour the band would spend the summer in Brooklyn, NY recording I'm In Your Mind Fuzz and Quarters.
This show happened to be the bands first ever performance in North America! "We've never played in America before" chimes Stu right before launching into their yet to be released 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz' suite on side A. The 2014 show, presented in full on the first LP, is particularly historic. This 4th release follows Live at Levitation release from Kikagaku Moyo, The Black Angels and Primal Scream. The Reverberation Appreciation Society are beyond stoked to announce the 4th installment in our Live at Levitation series with the one and only King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard! This landmark double LP features the band's 20 shows pressed up on beautiful wax - which is all in hand and shipping now!
