This was made before their first album, but it somehow sounds much better to me despite being stylistically very similar. Very fun listening.
Track 1 is just a really creepy, short intro to track 2, which is perhaps a top-5 King Gizzard track for me. Then Track 3 loses me completely, but I do get the appeal for it.
This album is not my style, but I completely understand the hype and appeal. I can appreciate it without loving it. However, "The Bitter Boogie" stands out to me as one of the all-time great KGLW tracks, and it was one of my top 5 most-played of 2024.
I love this for study music, but that doesn't give it enough credit. "The River" is a well-deserved fan-favorite, but my personal favorite is "Lonely Steel Sheet Flyer". The other two are at least intriguing, but I do tune out a bit before the 10:10 runtimes end.
This album starts strong and really doesn't let up. I don't really love "Satan Speeds Up", but really everything else is immensely catchy and vibe-y.
