It's a $50 bootleg shirt of the psychedelic rock band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, who recently released their 4th album in less than 9 months, a progressive thrash metal EP named "PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation"

I'm not being sarcastic, should definitely check them out.

You forgot to add ‘and it’s fucking fantastic’.

Yes, but is it an ALTERED WOO, a hungry wolf of fate woooOOOooooo, or a more lightheaded Iron Lung woo?

Evil death roll now

Ah, obviously it would be something metal. Metal bands are just so damn funny

[–] spicysoup@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

they aren't just metal though, emphasis on the 'progressive.' they are incredibly prolific and bend genres

[–] HowShouldIKnow@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

They're barely metal. 1/12 of their albums are metal. Australia must have one hell of a psych scene though

[–] kemmyLilmister@feddit.dk 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

just the Petrodragonic Apocalypse and Infest the Rats' Nest albums are metal, but their catalogue includes microtonal music, garage rock, prog rock, synth pop, boogie, electronic music, rap, jazz, and more. If you are interested, the album called Omnium Gatherum dives into various genres.

Don't forget folk ballad (eyes like the sky) (not sure that's the official genre but it's the best i can think of)

Spoken word spaghetti western

Love me some Gizz, my all time favourite band. I hope we get a KGatLW fedi community at some point

[–] HowShouldIKnow@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've subbed to 2 of them, .ml and .world

[–] Kizaing@lemmy.kizaing.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Oh nice! I'll see if I can find them
