They might STILL pull it off. As I'm writing this, KING GIZZARD now have AA helpedTo come out with another album. Polygondwanaland, their fourth of TheThe world now, released asA free downloadOnTheband 's website. This stunt has its precedents. Once upon A TimeTo crank out new albums at ridiculous rates. The Beatles released six albums between 1963 and 1965. Creedence Clearwater Revival released FIVE in 1968 and 1969 alone. In 2009, Gucci Mane released Two studio albums and eight mixtapes. So it Can be done. But FOR Aband in 2017,KING GIZZARD 's four to date albumsSTILL amountToA herculean feat — partly becauseof The sheer volumeofMUSIC , and partly because each album has its own senseof character.FOR Flying Microtonal Banana, The album they released in February, KING GIZZARDTo microtonal intervals, which hadThe effectof giving all their songsA staring-into-infinity krautrock enormousity that meshed fascinatingly withThe Garage rock intensity that comes naturallyTo Theband . In June, they followed it with Murder Of The Universe , an album full ofof drooling, freaked-out aggression, like what might have happenedifThe late-'60s Stooges had triedTo play earlyPINK Floyd style prog rock. Sketches of Brunswick East, FromThe most laid-backofTheRecords , its jazz-damaged mutant pop shot through with English folk and Ethiopian highlife influences. And if we don't get that fifth album this year, I CanThe new Polygondwanaland is, at leastFrom where I'm sitting, easilyThe strongestofThe four and probablyThe best album I've heard From thisband yet.KING GIZZARD built Polygondwanaland out of intricate, overlapping grooves. The songs are all in unfamiliar Time signatures; they're math problems that I Can (Running errands earlier today, I just about broke my brain attempting To drum along OnThe steering wheel.) ButKING GIZZARD aren't jam band or tech metal types;The technical dexterity is neverThe period. Instead, they use all that musicianship To craft an otherworldly rhythmic swirl. It's all there in “Crumbling Castle ,” The album's towering 11-minute opener. "Crumbling Castle " is AA staggeringPsychedelic beastofA song with its eyes lockedOnThe sky. But it's not A single-minded creature. There's A lot ofROOMFOR play in “CrumblingCastle .” At various points inThe song, we hear tranced-out flutes, blazing metal riffs, raga-drone organs, and ominous vintage-synth tones that recallTANGERINE Dream and John Carpenter film scores. Sometimes, The members ofTheband attemptTo chant like Gregorian monks, which hasThe slightly hilarious effectof making their accentsSound even more Australian than usual.And if “Crumbling CastleThe roadmap, it'sA hugeOne ,One that leavesTheband plenty ofROOMTo wander. There are some genuinely gorgeous acoustic folk songs On Polygodwanaland, but even OnofTheband 's drummers get serious workouts. (Shout out To two-drummer bands. I'm sure there are shitty two-drummer bands out there, but I've never heard them. And The best two-drummer bands — BLACKThe current Bon Iver touring lineup — are just godlike.) Within their warpedTime signatures andPsychedelic repetition,KING GIZZARD are great songwriters, andThe melodiesOn Polygondwanaland Can be soothing or triumphant or, sometimes, both. Lyrically, they're into dazed galactic imagery, which doesn't do A lot FORTheMUSIC . The whole Sound is definitely retro in Aof obvious touchstones: Floyd, Sabbath,Can ,Hawkwind ,The 13th floor elevators. But like fellow Aussie SPACE cases Tame Impala ( Aband that otherwise has nothing in common withKING GIZZARD ), they're great at taking those influences and subsuming them into what they do. When I'm LISTENING ToTo older psych bands or marveling atThe fact that these guys already released three completely different albums this year. I'm just letting it wash over me.When KING GIZZARD 's grand 2017 stunt is over, when they succeed or fail at delivering that fifth album by their own arbitrary deadline, PEOPLETo wantTo build narrative outof whatTheband has accomplished this year. And here's The narrative that I'm already developing in my head: It took Theband three quick succession albumsTo build upTo what they've doneOn Polygondwanaland. All four albums are worth your Time , but KING GIZZARDTo chase their muse downA few different rabbit holes before they ended up with something truly stunning, and that something truly stunning is Polygondwanaland. if they do manage To release another album in The next six weeks, it'll just be bonus points. What they've already accomplished is enough.
