King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard – Flying Microtonal Banana

Description

King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard’s Flying Microtonal Banana pushed the band into new experimental territory, marking their first venture into microtonal tuning and custom-built instruments. Released in 2017, the album stands as a bold entry in their prolific discography, fusing psychedelic rock with Eastern scales and hypnotic grooves. This eco-wax pressing continues the band’s tradition of inventive packaging with a sustainable touch.

The record unfolds with a relentless drive, anchored by standout cuts like “Rattlesnake,” an endlessly looping groove that burrows into your brain, “Sleep Drifter,” a trance-like journey built on quarter-tone guitar work, and “Billabong Valley,” which leans into desert-rock storytelling with a unique twang. Each track pushes the boundaries of conventional rock while holding onto King Gizzard’s unmistakable energy.

Pressed on random color eco-wax, each copy of this LP carries its own one-of-a-kind swirl, making it as visually unpredictable as the music itself. Packaged in a standard jacket with artwork that mirrors the album’s adventurous spirit, it offers both durability and a distinctive collector appeal without relying on wasteful manufacturing.
