Love this for many reasons, but one is that Cavs (the drummer) is talking about mastering the double kick. Fast forward 2 years and they just released a thrash metal album where he absolutely nails it! So excited to see them live TODAY in Asheville, NC!!
Came here to write this EXACT comment, almost verbatim. Fast forward two years and we have the best thrash metal album certainly of 2019, featuring some kiiiiiiiller double bass. Amazing.
Honestly Stu showing off the books was probably the most interesting part cause I feel like you can clearly see his influences in his song writing through those book choices and it’s awesome to see when artists pull from different medias for inspiration
Looking at the breadth of their songs' subject matter and the depth of the lyrics it's clear that Stu is really well read. KG is such a fun "intellectual" band that doesn't take themselves too seriously and it's so refreshing
It's funny to see that they have quite different tastes and that each of their influences (metal, african music, flute, 60's british rock, jazz...) kinda mix up and result in their music. I feel like every member is really involved in the creation of every song and bring his own touch.
Brown Emm I don’t think that’s how he sells himself I think that’s just how he is. You can find super old interviews and clips him before he got any fame and he acts exactly the same.
6:40 Its awsome seeing Cavs talking about aspiering to master the doubble kick drum and now beeing able to deliver some absolute amazing double kick drum solos.
This is a good message for young bands...... keep an open mind , listen to everything and read .... it is all inter related and relevant.... Stu's girlfriend has the best taste.....
Love hearing cavs talk about having trouble getting the double-kick groove down, then fast-forward to now with him absolutely fucking _tearing_ away on PDA
Yeah. Right. Because we're all 20-years-old. There was a first wave of interest in that stuff in the 90s, so...I feel that statement. But I'm no hipster because I don't fucking care what the next guy listens to.
i laughed so loud the cat ran away...then i realized i am old...recall this stuff in the late 70's...stuff we put on to see who was really cool at the late part of an all night party. check out Mahmoud Ahmed. then drift into Fela Kuti. and slide into Ali Farka Touré. it pleased me greatly to see the resurgence of this music in the 90s' and perhaps even now?
We've had quite a few directors on the show over the years and many do talk about movies: ua-cam.com/play/PLjtg-TKQBIhv-v7CG7zm5LH0l-C6l16_n.html Colin Lee's recommendation is great too. The Criterion Collection closet DVD picks series is awesome: ua-cam.com/video/3ubQAunfwdo/v-deo.html
So happy to see guided by voices and yes as influences of king gizzard! Fucking love these bands, game of pricks is one of my favorites songs from guided by voices such deep and small song! Listens everyday and shows the influence of lofi in king gizzard! Love your work keep the good work
>"All the cool-kid hipsters are listening to it" >Is categorically in a group of cool-kid hipsters Solid recommendations for tunes. Guided by Voices sounds dope.
Very neat! My old man's first concert was Ultimate Spinach. He's from New England and I asked if he'd ever heard of them when I discovered them and saw that they were from New England too. He said that them and Beacon Street Union were Boston's response to the Psych scene in San Fran.
I was so hoping he'd pronounce Moog correctly. (Like vogue) That's rare. Still, it's so cool to see the 'separate ingredients' that combine to be the Gizz we know and love!
Tezeta from the new album is inspired by the song "Tezeta (Nostalgia) by that Ethiopian Jazz Guy. Sorry, im too lazy to look up his name. But its definitely influenced by his music.
about two hours ago someone suggested i give this band a listen. on it. really digging what i'm hearing. about two songs ago i thought: now i know where the children of hawkwind went... stumbled on this and really laughed that he picked motorhead. so old am i, most of my still going to shows friends know motorhead, but not hawkwind. if you don't know hawkwind, check then out.
Everybody is buying all of these super obscure records and Stu is just over here like “I got a cool shirt and some scary books."
Ay, at least he’s not a scummy colorblind kid in mun
Sp00ky books
He did talk about fragile tho which is an amazing album
a fragile shirt from yes is pretty rare
That I haven’t read lol
This video makes a lot more sense once you learn that Stu never had a record player until the pandemic lol
It's pretty cool that he brought those books though
Love this for many reasons, but one is that Cavs (the drummer) is talking about mastering the double kick. Fast forward 2 years and they just released a thrash metal album where he absolutely nails it! So excited to see them live TODAY in Asheville, NC!!
Just bought this rrcord todsy. He killed it.
im seeing them in 10 days!!!!
Aye, I was at that show!

fast forward 5 years and hes doing shit like Flamethrower wtf
Honestly Stu showing off the books was probably the most interesting part cause I feel like you can clearly see his influences in his song writing through those book choices and it’s awesome to see when artists pull from different medias for inspiration

Everyone else: "I got some obscure 60s music."
Stu: "Book about Satan. Seems like fun."
Consural silly atheisr
and that really sums up the sound of the band too lol. all of these influences, including the scifi, lovecraft, and satanic stories, contribute haha
It's funny to see that they have quite different tastes and that each of their influences (metal, african music, flute, 60's british rock, jazz...) kinda mix up and result in their music. I feel like every member is really involved in the creation of every song and bring his own touch.
nice Floating Coffin avatar my dude
you got some turds on yer nose dude.
yeah, pretty much as it is with most of bands :)
Thee Oh Fucking Sees
I feel like a lot of bands crutch on one or two members for songwriting/drive in the band and it's something special when thats not true.
2:59
"everything is all related I think"
"yeah definitely"
gizzverse confirmed
can we pronounce it "jizzverse"?
The Gizzamatic universe is the logical next step.
All jokes aside I kinda wanna see them in a stoner comedy
@@gracemilstein8839 No
they went to a shop that specializes in music and Stu decided to get books
I love that Stu didn't even get any records lol, he's so funny
KaoruKat it had to be set who the unique one was. That’s the way he sells himself to the audience, I believe.
And he fucks with Fragile! Great prog rock album.
@@TheBrowniemusic its the truth and i dislike to believe it
Brown Emm I don’t think that’s how he sells himself I think that’s just how he is. You can find super old interviews and clips him before he got any fame and he acts exactly the same.
@@podtherod9304 what you said 👍👍
Stu's picks make so much sense
i met stu at splendour in the grass this year and he was wearing that yes shirt yew
when I met him he was wearing the very same shirt he's wearing in this video
wig out
Dude same here, so tight
King gizzard needs to make a king gizzardy style metal album
Well are you in luck
Does thrash work?
Pls make a wish for a second metal record
WELL THEN
You absolute madman
Stu likes progressive metal, Yes and into HP Lovecraft and horror fiction.
I would turn for him.
Who me?
What the duck does that mean?
looks like you already have bud
welcome to bisexuality my dude
6:40 Its awsome seeing Cavs talking about aspiering to master the doubble kick drum and now beeing able to deliver some absolute amazing double kick drum solos.
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like KGLW!
thought the same now after having petrodragonic apocalypse
This is a good message for young bands...... keep an open mind , listen to everything and read .... it is all inter related and relevant.... Stu's girlfriend has the best taste.....
Michael got a crush on Cate Le Bon
The boys: *pulls out literally any album ever released*
Me: Oh of course they like this record, it's in their sound
6:39
Good news, he figured out how to work a double-kick drum everyone!
Love hearing cavs talk about having trouble getting the double-kick groove down, then fast-forward to now with him absolutely fucking _tearing_ away on PDA
Dude I came here to comment the same exact thing
"i assure you i was there before all the hipsters" - every hipster ever
GrungeRockGod that was the joke
JACK You suck, McBain!
Yeah. Right. Because we're all 20-years-old. There was a first wave of interest in that stuff in the 90s, so...I feel that statement. But I'm no hipster because I don't fucking care what the next guy listens to.
And how much did you pay for your rock and roll t-shirt
That proves you were there
That you heard of them first?

Well Cavs came through with the double kick in the end.
5 albums in one year. These guys are kings.
They’re doing it again in 2022
So Stu's appreciation of HP Lovecraft makes me think MOTU was mostly his brainchild
a lot of King Gizz is mostly Stu's brainchild.
Fave Gizz album tbh
Ummmm.... obviously
The last part of the album also has a bit of an Isaac Asimov vibe too.
Yeah that an Phillip K. Dick.
I swear that King Gizz is the best thing to come out of Australia in a long time also the girl my friend bones she cool as well
Do they still bone?
no
Courtney Barnett is pretty good too ;)
check out The Chats as well
Hiatus Kaiyote for neo soul-funk-jazzy-hipster fusion, love them!

THE BOYS
This whole Amoeba jig is just like music school for addicts!! I have learned so much about artists I have never heard of. It's great!!
Can definitely hear The Kinks in Pipe-Eye!
immediately thought the same.
Yes! Finally! My favourite band at the moment, maybe of all time.
At 1:47 tezeta is literally the genre that guy plays. Favorite song off of Brunswick
I feel like each member takes turn trying to grow that same thin little mustache. Cavs is rockin' it in this video this time
Now Thee Oh Sees!
Meh
Johan Escobar "Meh", boy you got a Floating Coffin pic
Really?
DO THEE OH SEES! GET DWYER IN THERE
lol no
Eric's moustache is warm and welcoming
shhhh
“Tryna get that double kick down”
Infest The Rats’ Nest: I guess that worked out
lmao yeah that comment from Cavs aged beautifully.
Now even more with petro
@@hovnousek1962 his work on petro is unreal
The editing in this video is great. It's definately got better.
Awesome! Thanks!
This surprised the hell out of me that they mentioned Yes and my favorite Kinks album back to back! Awesome!
I think face to face is my favorite kinks album, kinks kintroversy might be second
And 6 years later here we are. Got that double kick down!
king scissored and the jizzard blizzard
Juice _ best comment
DEAD
Ameaba, thank you very much.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
stu's picks especially just make so much sense given the band's themes and lyrics lmao, and their forays into metal
Love how Lucas is wearing Parquet Courts merch.
Dude, Ultimate Spinach. Mind Flowers is a psychedelic masterpiece.
You ain't lyin. Also ballad of the hip death goddess.
one of my all-time favourite songs
Great album but the band were such copycats.
Lmclean89 i can hear foxy lady by Jimi Hendrix on the track they previewed
Love Behold and see, it's my favorite vinyl!
9:08 is literally the Mind Fuzz cover art
Mezling yeaa! wow that cover is a straigth up similarity! still cool they had THIS as inspiration tho
mixed with chameleon world
The IIYMF cover is from an old game though
The art for that album is actually ripped straight from an old Commodore 64 game called Fortress
eric is a national treasure and should be protected at all costs
You didn’t protect him enough!
Sadly that comment didn't age well :(
F
Well I have some sad news
wow, I'm on love with this band and their taste
Idk what I expected the members of King Gizzard to look like before seeing this, but this looks about right
So interesting to know that Stu is into metal, first time I heard The Lord of Lightning I could feel some heavy metal vocal influences
I would love to see this, but with directors at a DVD/video store.
check out the criterion collection series with directors and actors choosing criterion films
Colin Lee I will totally check that out!
We've had quite a few directors on the show over the years and many do talk about movies: ua-cam.com/play/PLjtg-TKQBIhv-v7CG7zm5LH0l-C6l16_n.html
Colin Lee's recommendation is great too. The Criterion Collection closet DVD picks series is awesome: ua-cam.com/video/3ubQAunfwdo/v-deo.html
+amoeba you guys should get more director / actor / screenwriter
Heard of em only a year ago,they come through Denver pretty frequently...finally,gave them a chance a month ago.Great Group!!!🤘😎👍
Almost 2 years to the day... Cavs mastered the double-kick
dude that ultimate spinach album. also that cate le bon album has one of the most beautiful songs ever writen "are you with me now?"
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like KGLW!
Stu talking about TOOL and YES just explained so many things about their music influences.
Cavs ends up becoming a beast at the double bass drum
omgg he wore that yes tshirt on stage at primavera sound barcelona
Oh dude, when Memories of Green came in during the Philip K. Dick section at 9:23, I got INTENSE shivers. Whoever edited this video is a G.
Cavs definitely mastered that double kick at their new song "Planet B", good job!
Fragile! I love Yes so much.
Best rock band in the world right now, no exceptions
And they only got better after this
Instantly hit the like button for GBV being the first pick 💖🎶✌🏻
King Carrot and the Parrot Ferret
"I don't believe in God, so I don't fear Satan." Greatest quote ever!
Ambrose is so cute, my heart can't take it
Arthur by the Kinks is one of the more underrated albums of all time.
Gizzard & BBNG collab is a must
Love how Michael says he doesn’t nail the double kick but absolutely goes fire 6 years later on petrodragonic apocalypse
They should release an album
So happy to see guided by voices and yes as influences of king gizzard! Fucking love these bands, game of pricks is one of my favorites songs from guided by voices such deep and small song! Listens everyday and shows the influence of lofi in king gizzard! Love your work keep the good work
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like KGLW!
Infest the Rats' Nest confirms both Michael's love for Philthy drumming and mastering his Double Bass skills
Cavs finally mastered the double bass!!!
I haven't watched this yet and I know it's my fav episode so far
Great video. The Tool influence in their recent records is noticeable.
Yeah, Polygon.. Love it
All my love for this band
Ambrose makes me doubt about my sexuality man
The more fluid the sexuality, the more fluids...
its ok, everyone is a little bit gay for ambrose
he is pretty cute, not gonna lie
oh, I wondered if I was the only one
Dolan _ as a woman he makes me feel so straight
>"All the cool-kid hipsters are listening to it"
>Is categorically in a group of cool-kid hipsters
Solid recommendations for tunes. Guided by Voices sounds dope.
Musos are not hipsters, they are musos, always have been, always will be. Hipsters maybe trying to emulate aspects of musos but its contrived.
Chip yard Just a bit of banter mate, don't worry about it.
Kid hipsters? they're my generation, all in the late 20's.
I think he was just 'avin' a laff

Prove that the Gizzverse is real
GIZZVERSE CONFIRMED
that h.p. lovecraft cover at 9:08 totally remind me of Im In your mind Fuzz cover!
nice work lucas with the Parquet Courts t-shirt
Ambrose : fiSTfUL oF LoVE
Eric : *visible discomfort*
I was looking for this comment! Haha
Death grips- what's in my bag
HIGHTONEEE they wouldnt show up haha
a fuckin sword and a nuke
Yummy
some jimi hendrix, of course
the_rugged 😂😂😂
I like that Stu presents all of those books he got and my first reaction being. "Yup... that's Stu alright"
Very neat! My old man's first concert was Ultimate Spinach. He's from New England and I asked if he'd ever heard of them when I discovered them and saw that they were from New England too. He said that them and Beacon Street Union were Boston's response to the Psych scene in San Fran.
Drummer: “yeah I haven’t gotten great at double kick”
Planet B: yeah let me introduce myself
If Stu doesn’t believe in God then who was in the rythm???
The Devil
:o !!!!!
+Florian Geyer he then sped up
Stu doesn't believe in God because he knows God and how much of a pricky liar he is
It was the r a t t l e s n a k e s
So Michael was able to master the double bass finally and here we are a year later with Infest the Rat's Nest. Thrash hard, King Gizz
Crush on all of them
I was so hoping he'd pronounce Moog correctly. (Like vogue) That's rare.
Still, it's so cool to see the 'separate ingredients' that combine to be the Gizz we know and love!
I'm sure we'll be seeing more of these greats with the world catching on. Great video! Thanks Amoeba!
Saw these guys in Vancouver with my Australian friends who showed me them. One of my favourite gigs I've been too, it was a trip for sure
Always knew there was a reason Stu is my favorite member! I have all of this stuff too!
Tezeta from the new album is inspired by the song "Tezeta (Nostalgia) by that Ethiopian Jazz Guy. Sorry, im too lazy to look up his name. But its definitely influenced by his music.
Mulatu Astatke
Now we know what influenced Ambrose's vocal style in the Murlocs. 3:50
You can really tell how good an artist is from the music they choose
*Looks at grimes*
forever grateful to this video for introducing me to GBV
BadBadnotGood collab when?
This is such a gold mine.
hell yes! a beautiful bunch of human beings. they make be feel good to be alive!
I have waited so long for this, and was not disappointed
about two hours ago someone suggested i give this band a listen. on it. really digging what i'm hearing. about two songs ago i thought: now i know where the children of hawkwind went... stumbled on this and really laughed that he picked motorhead. so old am i, most of my still going to shows friends know motorhead, but not hawkwind. if you don't know hawkwind, check then out.
That last song bit by Lucas, "Wasn't Expecting Much" is good stuff with with creative bass playing.
I will be in this show in the future, and I will pick a Gizzard album
Ultimate Spinach were pretty good too.
