King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have released their long-awaited new album, Flight B741. Stream it below.
The band, known for their high productivity, has set a slightly less rapid pace this year; Flight B741 will be released as the successor to 2023 The Silver Cordthe group’s third project of the same year. The 26th studio album in the band’s discography, this LP offers further genre-blending from the Australian rockers – our own Paolo Ragusa described ‘Hog Calling Contest’ as “an acid-laced, country-tinged hoedown that’s fast on its feet and a lot of damn fun.”
