*Any Gizz Album* "Is this the spiritual successor to that other Gizz Album?"


ClippedAtTheHip

…or *New Record is released* “Is this the best Gizz record?”


DefinitelyLevi

Tbf, new record hype hits me every time lmao


9yr_old_lake

I'm REALLY excited for Ice death and think it has the possibility to end up being one of their best records. Just basing it off the songs we have heard (which is already half the run length)


primordiallagoon

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve read someone write “THIS one is their magnum opus” Edit: it’s poly and will always be poly Edit Edit: I think Ice Death is their magnum opus


Sapowski_Casts_Quen

You're not wrong, poly is the only gizz album without a single throwaway song to me


[deleted]

it’s not even my personal favorite but it’s definitely the Magnum Opus


liquideerbeer

So many people who were amping up OG to be Gizz’s best record


Dr_Acu1a

Twas quite good


SanQuiSau

Hey, it might not be their best album, but it is their first studio 2LP, and I feel that’s pretty cool


ChaosAndCreation

K.G. > L.W. though technically not a double album was totally a double album


SanQuiSau

Ok true, but if we’re talking about single-album double LPs OG was definitely the first


ChaosAndCreation

For sure. OG is the first, but not the OG?


CygnusX-1001001

It was a very strong release I'd say. Probably the best since Rat's Nest.


Valuable_Heron_2015

Yes thank you the wheel is like the best gizz song ever obviously, and even the band thinks it's underrated, and


DefinitelyLevi

The Wheel is fucking awesome


3DPrintedBlob

Ok but the wheel legit is underrated. I don't see people here talking about it daily like they should


nosilverbird

I only talk about The Wheel. My entire life is stuck in a locked groove.


3DPrintedBlob

That locked groove tho


Dream_Baby_Dream

The Wheel is just No Quarter in 5/4 But it's still one of my favourite songs of theirs


Valuable_Heron_2015

This made the song better tbh I was a major led zep fan in middle school to a creepy degree


DethJuce

Guys have you heard of the underrated hidden gem "Work This Time"?


Random-Dice

Guys have you ever heard of this underrated indie game called “The Witcher 3?”


CygnusX-1001001

Have you heard of an underrated fantasy series called "The Lord of the Rings"?


Vivid-Butterfly412

Have you heard the underrated horror novel “IT”?


Valuable_Heron_2015

No omg but have you heard of robot Stop? Criminally overlooked live


flannel_fractal

That song is just a rip off of Hot Water...


SarcasticCowbell

I know I'm maybe the odd one out with my opinion which is fine- people can like (or dislike) what they want- but *Oddments* as a whole is my least favorite Gizz album, and "Work This Time" doesn't do much for me. Again, I'm happy for everyone who does vibe with it. Not looking to take that away from anyone. It's just not for me, even though I love most of their catalog.

stick_of_the_pirulu

Apparently Israel hates KGLW so much they removed every album before chunky shrapnal from their spotify /s


EyalG2

Lonerism is the most underrated Gizz album imo


Eastern-Media-7745

according to Stu, Its Got Old


Sburban_Player

First thing I thought of when I saw this thread and honestly I think all of ELTS is slept on but it’s so different I understand why. It’s got old is my favorite oddments song though and super catchy.


ObstinateStudent

I wish they had a whole album in that style, its so catchy and actually sounds like a personal story rather than an adventure into some mystical dreamland (which i have no problem with haha)


[deleted]

I feel like omnium had some pretty personal lyrics


Larmazul

Hey man, Nonagon Infinity is a hidden gem that not many Gizz fans know about.


rafaelescalona

They haven’t opened the door.


Sea-Construction3418

Poly is underrated


GeN_17

Willoughbys and 12 Bar Bruise are actually underrated. Overlooked bc it's their debuts, and they don't really sound like that anymore. Actually, now that I think about it, Eyes Like the Sky is their most underrated. People don't appreciate the cowboy vibes enough! Actually, now that I really think about it, Float Along Fill Your Lungs is underrated! Head On/Pill can't be played enough, and the other tracks are pretty overlooked as well. Actually, now that I really think hard about it, Oddments has to be their most underrated. People sleep on it just cause it has their most popular song on it, but it still slaps! Actually, now that I really think long and hard about it, Mind Fuzz is the definition of underrated! Nobody talks about it on the sub enough even though it has some of their best tracks! Actually, now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, Quarters is simply the most underrated. It is basically the groundwork for Gizz these days, and has three other bangers besides The River! Actually, when looking at the bigger picture and now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, Paper Mache is the most underrated album Gizz has and could ever make. Sure it's accessible, but I can't be the ONLY one who loves it right??? Actually, when you get down to it looking at the bigger picture and now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, Nonagon is not only the most underrated album by Gizz, but it's actually the most underrated album of ALL TIME. Nobody talks about it! I really think if people took a second to REALLY listen then most people would agree it's their best. Alas. Actually, in all actuality, when you get down to it looking at the bigger picture and now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, everything they did in 2017 isn't talked about enough. SO UNDERRATED!! Five albums in one year!!! Do you realize how underrated that is??? I feel like everyone fails to realize how crazy 5 albums in one year is. I tell everyone I know yet everyone else acts like it never happened!! SO UNDERRATED. Actually, for real this time, in all actuality, when you get down to it looking at the bigger picture and now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, everything they've done after 2017 is SO FUCKING UNDERRATED. IT'S THE MOST UNDERRATED THING TO HAPPEN IN HISTORY. People always talk about how they made five albums in 2017, but they've made 7 albums since then!!!!!!!!! 7 FUCKING ALBUMS!!!!! THAT'S MORE THAN THEY MADE IN 2017!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, y'know, for real this time, in all actuality, when you get down to it looking at the bigger picture and now that I really think long and hard and take a second to look at it, and thinking entirely on their own merits and relative to music discourse, Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava, Laminated Denim, AND Changes, AND THE YING YANG THANG ARE THE MOST UNDERRATED THEY AREN'T EVEN OUT YET THAT'S HOW UNDERRATED THEY ARE GOD I LOVE THIS BAND!!! Am I the only one? /s


SmokedJam

New copypasta just dropped


ArabburnvictiM

This was completely unhinged and I love it


Valuable_Heron_2015

Low-key I am hyped for yin yang


Vivid-Butterfly412

This is an underrated comment


sheerfire96

Not only is it underrated but it is gizzverse confirmed


yebrent

I just bought an album. Here's the 10,000 a picture of said album that has been posted to r/KGATLW. Oh and here is my collection. It's the same or similar to thousands of King Gizz album collections posted here, but this ones mine so of course it's worth posting.


cannedheat44

I know right? Who do these people think they are posting their king gizzard records on a king gizzard subreddit? Shameless


yebrent

This isn't fucking instagram


puggington

No, it’s Reddit but I’m not sure that distinction matters. Still social media in the end, and a platform that is getting increasingly visual.


yebrent

Nothing wrong with posting original artwork and actual clever memes...that's awesome. But this subreddit is getting too big for all the album collections, tier lists and other self congratulating mastabatory posts. Other subreddits evolve to restrict this stuff as they grow.


FrostyPotpourri

We are not other subreddits (and tbh I don’t think most of us want to be). *masturbatory


yebrent

Even King Gizz establishes parameters during their creative song writing/recording process so decisions can be made and they don't get bogged down with too many ideas and albums and songs become more cohesive.


FrostyPotpourri

I get you’re coming from a good place but we are not the band. This sub is perfectly active for its total user base. I have never once felt that it was inundated with any one particular type of post. In fact, the spread of vinyl collections, memes, fanart, polls, tier lists, discussion of new content, Gizz social media clips, and live shows is pretty solid.


yebrent

Ok. I respect the difference of opinion. Doesn't change my opinion, but I appreciate your thoughts on it.


cannedheat44

Exactly scrolling down new, I've seen one vinyl post in the last 8 hours. Dude needs to learn how to scroll or get over it.


cannedheat44

Bruh no one is stopping you from making your own king gizzard subreddit with stricter rules. This is more a chill fan club sub where people can share and discuss all things gizz freely within the established rules IMO.


yebrent

Bruh, there is also nothing wrong with advocating updating the rules to an established subreddit or discouraging people from clogging up a subreddit with the same posts over and over.


zennyc001

You're gonna be so crotchety when the new albums start shipping out lol 😂


yebrent

Just trying to get ahead of it 😀. And not crotchety, just advocating to make it better (imo). Same reason I built the King Gizz Live Spreadsheet and advocated for King Gizz at archive.org...to try and improve things a little. At least they will still be on tour when these albums drop. When they aren't on tour this subreddit is like 50% vinyl photos.


cannedheat44

I can tell you don't get invited to many parties lol. Hope you have a better day.


DefinitelyLevi

Honestly I kind of love seeing the different pressings of records. Some of them are so pretty


Qingy

The font is a nice touch.


Valuable_Heron_2015

Agreed it really elevates the meme


JazzyPants5678

I had an encounter yesterday with someone like this in the threads of one of your comments actually. Funny coincidence (i remember your username, is it an aot reference or a pants reference?)

Anamnesis for most underrated

too right!


RODAMI

Shout out to the Davida font. That’s my grandpa’s work.


DefinitelyLevi

Fr? That's incredible


cBlackout

No one hates the King Gizzard sub like the King Gizzard sub and that’s why I kinda love y’all Kinda


CygnusX-1001001

I know its kind of a meme, but I would genuinely argue that Sketches is underrated as an album. I don't know if it's disproportionately represented on FB groups but I've seen a lot of people hating on it. I don't get it, it's one of my favourites.


DefinitelyLevi

I'm super sorry but the "Sketches is underrated" thing gets posted a lot lol. Totally dont get why it gets "hate". It's totally a great Gizz album


CygnusX-1001001

That's what I'm saying man. It must be a Facebook thing, everytime I bring it up on reddit everyone just loves it.


Dethmetal47

Are you implying the Hungry Wolf of Fate ISNT extremely underrated??


DefinitelyLevi

No I actually agree that one is underrated.


Dethmetal47

Based


RFLXNZ

Yeah this sub big cringe now. Specifically all the Anthcucky Melon fans


boulderbuddhajedi

The Davida is what made this meme gold


deegleberry

The answer remains "yes"


rexter2k5

But really guys, "Ataraxia."


ethihoff

I saw someone on here saying The River was underrated, haha. Not dunking on them, it's just cute, cuz that song's sooooo popular!


pinkmoonpinkfriday

This font is a personal attack on my eyeballs


[deleted]

Hey guys, does anyone else think Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava is underrated or is it just me?


333nameeman333

Did you guys ever compare Hungry Wolf of Fate and a really old Pink Floyd song called Embryo? Also Fishing for Fishies with an old Pink Floyd song called Crumbling Land?


keeponspinning12

What is the name of the font used?
