    The way I've often described the similarities between Fishing for Fishes and Infest the Rats Nest is that Gishies is a man in a park with an acoustic guitar singing about how the planet is something we should take care of, where as rats Nest is that same man smashing his guitar, shooting Elon Musk in the face, and shouting," DID I FUCKING STUTTER."

    Saw them live in Las Vegas when they were touring for Nonagon Infinity. Venue was outside and had the stage, a large area for the crowd, and then in the back a pool. In the middle of their set Stu crowd-surfed and asked to be thrown in the pool. He swam for a bit then crowd-surfed back to the stage. The whole time the band was just shredding away. Top 10 concert experience for me.

    A few years ago I was invited to come see King Gizz, who I had never heard of, by a friend and I lazily listened to a couple songs on their most recent album a couple weeks before the gig. Turns out, what had been the most recent album when I was listening, Fishing for Fishies, was no longer the most recent album when I saw them live. After two great opening bands that I've entirely forgotten they opened the night with Mars For The Rich and I was taken entirely by surprise. Incredible night, Mars and In Your Mind and Rattlesnake are all so good live, I can't recommend them enough.

    Couple of notes from an Australian fan:
    - Opening on a shot of Sydney for a Melbourne band is very funny, well done
    - Weird that you didn't mention Ambrose is IN the Murlocs when you first brought up Gizzfest
    - Also lol'd at calling Babe Rainbow "Baby Rainbow"
    - I was at the gig you used footage from during the Nonagon passage, at the Metro Theatre in Sydney. Great gig! I've seen them 11 times all up, from tiny clubs to big festivals, and they're always a memorable show.
    - Wish you'd mentioned the band playing Lord Of Lightning on Conan when you showed that footage, if only for Conan absolutely RELISHING saying the band name.
    - As an Australian it's really funny to hear you shorten the band name to KG, because we all call them King Gizz! That might sound weird with an American accent though 😂

    @JustoBlondo 2 роки тому +6

    My favorite thing to do with King Gizzard music is when I play "People Vultures" and then start queuing up these songs from "Murder Of The Universe," "The Reticent Raconteur" to "The Floating Fire." It's a seamless transition from "Nonagon Infinity" to "MOTU"

    Their psychedelic chill sound is my personal fave. Float Along, Quarters and Sketches are fantastic albums. The heavy stuff is great for catarsis

    • @kevinwillems8720
      @kevinwillems8720 Рік тому +2

      Rats Near is the definition of catharsis.
      An album that starts with a pleading scream, there is no planet B, and ends with the knowledge that those that killed the earth would be torn to shreds by demons.

    "Am I in Heaven?" might have been the song that cemented them as my favorite band, hearing the intro to that while I was tripping was one of the most surreal experiences of my life. I have stopped doing drugs but their music is just as enjoyable sober. I also think that their music is fun to breakdown and try to play. There is a lot to love about them. Great vid!

    I absolutely ADORE that one can hear the enthousiasm with which you talk about the Gizz! It's my special interest and hearing others dig up so much on their history, talk about their work in detail and praise it for what it is makes me so damn happy, you can't imagine! Thank you so much for this video, and I'm only 7 minutes in! :D
    For songs, so much of Joey's work has stuck with me: Anoxia, Intrasport, Interior People, Ataraxia and especially Minimum Brain Size.
    For other things, the origin story of KGs dive into microtonality. On tour, Stu decided to take a detour through Turkey (even tho it wasn't NEARLY on the track for where they were supposed to head), where he ended up listening to a lot of local music and fell in love with the baglama, a turkish microtonal string instrument with moveable frets. As the thin neck and other bits of the instrument just didn't seem made for him, he pitched the idea of a microtonal guitar to Zac Eccles after he asked Stu for new ideas for instrument projects. Thus, the Flying Microtonal Banana was born. The following album was thusly named after the guitar, as she's featured quite prominently on the album cover :D (All this is from an Interview with Stu which was uploaded to UA-cam) The rest of the instruments followed suit as they picked up cheap instruments from flea markets and yard sales and modified them (such as Lucas' 'Gubson' bass)
    And the fact that Joey named one of his guitars Dickhead. Classy, Walky Jake.
    AND the fact that Cavs' giant cat is named Moon Unit. And his dog Basil, which he originally wanted to name Diet Coke but his wife said No.

    The mad lad actually did it. Shocked this video came in under 45 minutes. I got into KGATLW last year and became obsessed. Agreed that Nonagon is their best album, Fishies is a great album, and Billabong Valley is the highlight of MFB. Only point I really disagree on is IMO KG > LW. Can't wait to see them in October.
    I also just want to add that I started listening to Daft Punk because of your updated DDD on them and just felt ready to listen to Live 2007 for the first time today and yeah...that's a great live album. They'd always been around as a band I was aware of and knew a few songs but never really listened to. So thanks for giving me the motivation to give them a try.
    Now do Ween!

    Nonagon Infinity was my first real exposure to KG, and goddamn what an intro. The album just kicks ass.

    MOTU was actually the first full album I listened to from them, and it blew me away and shook me to my core. The final song sunk fear into my heart in a way I could never describe, and I was immediately hooked for life. I've been listening to them nearly every day since 2019, and the funky lads always bring joy to my life with their wild ass music.
