King Gizzard & the Wizard Lizard releasing "world's first infinitely looping" album

After dabbling Brubeck-y jazz and gentle acoustics, Australia’s King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are back in hyperactive psych mode on new album Nonagon Infinity, which will be out via ATO on April 29. The album was recorded in Brooklyn at Daptone Studio (so that’s why they were here so much). It also marks what they are calling the world’s first “infinitely looping” album, meaning that when you listen to it digitally on repeat, the final song flows seamlessly into the first track on the album. (All the songs segue together, apparently.) Maybe the vinyl will have a locked groove at the end of each side? We shall see. Until then check out the album’s first single, “Gamma Knife,” below.

The new album will be out right before the start of King Gizzard’s spring tour, which kicks off at Austin Levitation and hits NYC for a headlining show on May 14 at Bowery Ballroom with tourmates (and fellow Aussies) The Murlocs, and then opening for Mac DeMarco on May 16 at Webster Hall. Webster is sold out, but tickets for Bowery are still available.
