Eeep! I just impulse purchased a gig ticket based on half hearing half a set from outside Williams Green while pissed!

Just downloaded the new album. What else should I listen to, I don’t really know any of their stuff or what the ‘big’ gig tracks are.

Should be a laff 

Give Nonagon Infinity a few spins and work outwards from there. 

Hope you enjoy the gig, I'm sure you will.

Listen to 'Nonagon Infinity' and 'I'm in your Mind Fuzz' for starters

Biggest gig tracks are 'Rattlesnake'. 'cellophane' 'Gamma Knife' and 'Robot Stop'

As far as 2am impulse purchases go, this is a good one.

I wish I was as random as this suggests (I used to be). I’m currently in the future though (aka New Zealand) and it was a rather boring but sunny 3pm on Wednesday.

Nonagon Infinity is probs the best starting point these days, Gamma Knife and Robot Stop usually get the crowd going the most at their recent gigs. From there it kind of depends on what side of the band you like most as there's obviously a lot of different styles in their absurdly prolific discography.

A load of independent record stores are doing coloured vinyl of Polygondwanaland, pre orders seem to be going up today  

[Mash011]

We all done digesting the wonders of Polygondwanaland? Good, cos they've just dropped two songs off album number 5. Only currently out via recordings from Australian itunes but I expect we'll hear them properly + in better quality soon.

All is Known - https://www.facebook.com/lachystarling/videos/2038234919729746/
Beginners Luck - https://www.facebook.com/lachystarling/videos/2038249003061671/

This record's meant to be just good songs they made that didn't fit the concept of the other records, sort of like the wonderful Oddments. Both of these are very groovy.

[priest17]

 

Fuck I love this band but I'm worn out, almost hope for a year so I can properly catch up on everything we got this year.

 

 

... Alright 1 more album this year but then I'm moving on to Ty's new album.

[Mash011]

nothing will stop me eating. gimme 7 albums next year.

Gizzard's release schedule by 2020:

[Mash011]

Youtube uploads for the new stuff, enjoy. Seems like there'll be something for everyone on this record - fingers crossed for some more of that nice fun pop gizz which Beginners Luck kind of leads towards.

[priest17]

These are all amazing, this random offcuts album might prove to be my favorite of theirs this year. Christmas day release? You know you want to lads.

[priest17]

PS: I think I prefer The Murlocs' album to any of the Gizzard releases this year. Don't at me.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Loving greenhouse heat death!

[Mash011]

Someone sell me a standing ticket for Brixton please. Fucked it and now I don't have one.

Fantastic album, shame the vinyl is so expensive.

Aye. They were so good live earlier in the year as well, lacked the intensity and sheer holy-shit factor gizz bring but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great set uploaded on YouTube on flightless' YouTube a couple of months ago.

 

Do we reckon were getting a new album this year then? This week doesn't really exist so I doubt if get a real chance to listen to it, I'd love then to fulfil such an outlandish promise though.

New album 'Gumboot Soup' out tomorrow

[Wooderson]

Lol

[Mash011]

It's out already in some places, in fact. It'll be up on Spotify at midnight but here's hoping someone's king enough to upload it before then. Until then, here's the album art and track list.

1. Beginner's Luck
2. Greenhouse Heat Death
3. Barefoot Desert
4. Muddy Water
5. Superposition
6. Down the Sink
7. The Great Chain of Being
8. The Last Oasis
9. All Is Known
10. I'm Sleepin' In
11. The Wheel

[dentalplan]

That track list reads like those ‘Recently Added to Netflix’ updates you get.

[Mash011]

Aaaand here's the album. Got it downloaded for my train journey today. Enjoy lads.

 

[priest17]

Not gonna be able to listen till the new year now but looking forward to it to make going back to work a bit easier.

Gotta applaud them for actually getting 5 full length, quality, individual albums out in a year. It's fun to joke about but hats off to the lads, it's a very impressive feat, their tour schedule isn' exactly light either.

[FloorFiller]

For reasons beyond me I haven't listened to the last two albums (Sketches and Polyblahblahblah) but just had a play through of this one and it's really great. When these five albums were announced I was definitely expecting a dip in quality somewhere/towards the end but this one's as good as any of their other releases and has tons of standout tracks.
