EP 102. Has King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Jumped the Shark?

A Love Letter to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

Is King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard the best band in the world… or are they just really good at making us buy concert tickets?

This week, Keith and Steve swap war stories from the Gizzverse: the 2025 European Residency Tour (aka “how many nights in a row can one band melt your brain?”), the Phantom Island Orchestra Tour (spoiler: it’s as trippy as it sounds), and Field of Vision (part music festival, part interdimensional portal). We also peek into the future—yes, there’s a European Rave and Orchestra Tour on the horizon, because of course there is.

Expect love letters, a few roast notes, and at least one attempt to decide whether King Gizzard has jumped the shark, ridden the shark, or turned the shark into a concept album.

Grab your flight suit and your microtonal guitar—this one’s for the Gizzheads, the skeptics, and everyone stranded somewhere in between.

Let us know what’s up.
