Thought it was pretty terrible, for what it's worth. Not that Gizzard is really super varied when it comes to style, but I think the ones this year have them drifting off in directions. I would say give I'm In Your Mind Fuzz one listen before you decide if you're on or off the train. It will tell you what you need to know.

I'm not a Gizzard superfan, but I do love Mind Fuzz and Quarters. Maybe give those a shot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I'll be getting around to checking one or both of those out before I personally dismiss the band, for myself. But people were ranking the 2017 albums, and I just wanted to (minimally) chime in that my exposure to them has definitely made me suspect there may be a "quantity over quality" aspect to their ambitious goals for this year. I get that it's really unfair of me to feel that way after one listen to one album, but it's just a quick two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quasi-metal for people who don't listen to metal, and tons of annoying voiceovers that are mixed WAY too loud. Agreed that the voiceovers are far too loud/dominant and would have been better off used subtly. And they really don't work in the live show since (depending on the show's sound production) it's difficult to make out what's being said and they just come off as a distraction. I LOVED their Microtonal show earlier in the year (perfect sound separation and great set of songs), but the second time earlier this month it was a more muddy experience (different venue, inferior sound) and far too repetitive. I feel like they only played tracks from Nonagon, Microtonal, and MOTU. And we know Nonagon and MOTU are repetitive as hell. I felt bad bringing my new g/f who was just getting into them.

boombapclap Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 ALMOST got a tricolor PMDB. I was fumbling around with PayPal when it sold out. Oh well... that was fun. Wanted an ORB 7" but I didn't even see it go live.. showed up sold out immediately for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was beyond psyched about Nonagon when it came out, but it hasn't aged at all well for me. Still love "Gamma Knife", but rarely want to hear the whole album from front to back. Louderized mix grates no matter how I listen, and I usually get bored/irritated before it's half over. Lots of action on the surface, but nothing much going on underneath. Mind Fuzz was my first exposure to King Gizzard, and it's still my favorite, with PM Dream Balloon a reasonably close second. Of the 2017 onslaught, I figure FM Banana and Brunswick East are the keepers - both quite good but a little shy of their best work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up snagging a Reptilian Poison FMB, pretty psyched about that. I had to set an alarm to get up a little before 2am, totally worth it.

HoneyFrosted Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 So much limited stuff... my notice also went into the junk folder. Very disappointed, but I guess this is what I get for being one of the lucky few to grab a white Brunswick when they went up again. Hope some of you folks snagged some good stuff.
