aite so my first album was Microtonal Banana which by the time of writing is prob my favorite. I also listened to ITRN which is pretty good but I have my critiques. prob my third favorite. I also liked nonagon which is my second fave for sure. polygon is p good and I especially liked the last track (I assume its a lot of ppls favorite and 'quintessential')

to add to that I listened to both kg and lw, liked both, and also listened to PetroDragonic which is good too. didnt care for fishing for fishies and in your mind fuzz

planning on listening to murder of the universe, chunky shrapnel, omnium gatherum, and ice death planets. at least these are the ones in my queue for the next couple of days. I'll revisit microtonal stuff and PetroDragonic after that, as well as both poly- and nonagon. I dont think I'll stick around for their garag-y and blues stuff.

theres this 11 hour long YouTube video with their us tour recordings which im listening to at the gym, its p cool. im not sure if I wanna listen to all the lives as im getting severe Grateful Dead content farm flashbacks lmao

my overall thoughts is that it figures that universe-building bands are seeing their resurgence with this new generation. Grateful Dead are setting their all-time streaming records in the last few years. merch is ever-flowing, live shows and archival stuff are constantly coming in. so king gizz feels familiar plus theyre aussies. music is more busy, sometimes unnecessarily, sometimes as a testament to talent and whatnot

it also feels like too much music since this is my first month listening, shouldve gotten into them when I first heard ab them back in 2016? but yeah jam bands are cool until its 90 live recordings and 20 studio albums and everything becomes blurry. also I think I like oh sees better overall but even their massive catalog feels tame compared to king gizz. I def like more gizz albums than oh sees albums. I also know that oh sees kinda did it first but the comparison is overall not really there so im just blabbing

Nonagon

That was my introduction back in 2016, played it so f***ing much which is why I can't help thinking about why I just stopped checking for these guys

Ran Petro and Murder of the Universe back to back yesterday and loved them both, really got me excited to just run through everything

I haven't listened to The Grateful Dead much at all, that goes for jam bands in general, so I wasn't even viewing Gizzard through that lens but I get what you're saying

Would you mind linking that video?

Wouldn't have thought to compare them to thee oh sees either but I haven't listened to them much at all as well - I do really like what I've heard from them though

I feel like I'm always looking for psych music so I know I'll really enjoy any of their output that falls under that but I'm up for anything they do, it's really cool to me that they're so diverse and I definitely f*** with all the genres they touch (can't say I've listened to any microtonal music before but that novelty + knowing how talented they are makes me excited for that stuff too)

I think Butterfly 3000 is super underrated. It’s such a unique album in their already diverse discography. It sounds like pure ecstasy. Def my favorite album of theirs. And it’s cool af that every song got a video and they are trippy at that

Can this band be classified with the type of music that the Stooges made? I haven't peeped
