Just seen them at the Planet Hollywood in LAS VEGAS .. the sound was IMMACULATE and you could TELL TIME was taken into getting the PERFECT sound.. everything about it was EXQUISITE. God BLESS for this MASTFUL ART AND CULTURE
The ability to bring music all the way to the edge of chaos, where you think it's all going to fall apart, but still hold it together and keep it sounding gorgeous...that's what happened here
Dude, i love your comment, it describes this song perfectly. I felt this tought was in the tip of my tounge but i couldnt describe it. (Sorry for the broken english)
Same here!! Almost any song with Ambrose singing is one of my favorites and this is no exception for me! Combined with Amby’s screaming and the hard jam at the end make it my favorite of their new songs and maybe top 5 King Gizzard songs all time!
And on the Sleeping Monster doc he talked about how he feels like he's behind all the other band members in terms of skill. I'd strongly disagree as I don't think there's a single weak member. Lucas is a total beast on the bass, and all 4 of their drummers are killing it.
it takes a very specific kind of bassist to be able to keep up with Cav's drumming. Cavs is an absolute beast on the drums, and Lukey provides the perfect low-end to conquer that beast.
thanks to these live videos it really shows how amazing he is. Now when I listen to the studio albums I really pay attention to the bass. Great comment bro .
I've been thinking about an SNL type skit where he keeps bringing out more and more instruments to play, all while being perfectly pitched. I mean, I don't write skits, or anything else for that matter, but that type of vignette comes into my mind whenever I hear this song. Any illustrators out there want to bring this to life for me??
@@stuartweston7644 I mean, for what they've been doing Stu has been great! But I feel like they're going to go to another level with more of a twin vocal attack
I'm an old rocker from the 80's metal scene. I dug the 90's something fierce. Not since then, have I been impressed....until discovering King Gizz. My Gen Z kiddo turned me onto them. As young as they are, they have hall of fame potential, heck, they may already be there(in my opinion, they are). Gives me a lot of hope for this next generation.
I swear KEXP is some kind of magical nexus that appears midway through long tours where the genius of a song's writing and composition is paired with the hermetic air tightness of untold live shows and somehow captures something that is impossible to even think about recording in a studio or any other performance.
I like your username and you really hit the nail on the head with this description. This is exactly it. That is where/how they capture such magick. That and their audio engineers.
The value of these recordings to just cataloging the culture of the early 21st century music is ridiculous. They should be given special status by the Library of Congress or something.
Do a vinyl set with the audio from all their appearances, donate the proceeds to keeping KEXP going. That station is just as much of a cultural gem as the band is.
This is the thing that sets King Gizzard apart from even other psych bands, the studio version of this sounds like an impromptu psych jam but the bar that the guitar solo becomes a refrain, the drums recognise that and go heavy on the bell to accentuate it. It seems free flowing but it’s all heavily orchestrated. Even in a 10 minute song everyone knows their part at all times. Fucking excellent
How tf does Michael play that good for that long. Like there's slow parts and he's still going crazy on the drums the whole time. The boys never give him a break
It's so great that every time this song comes on I just have to listen to the whole thing especially because that verse that Stu sings at the end is literally my favorite part of the song. It just works so perfectly
I am a metal head through and through. Buddy recommended this band and I fell in love the moment I heard that sax. What a fantastic combination of styles and sounds. I can listen to this song over and over and just focus in on different instruments. 10/10 very epic band
My favorite all time band since Radiohead. To be able to put out this quality of music in such a short time frame is truly a special accomplishment. However pessimistic I may be about modern rock these guys give me hope. A truly singular band. No one is comparable
How do you come from a boring band like Radiohead to King Gizzard? You know there have been bands like Gizzard for years, right? Probably weren't on Spotify so you have to do a bit of effort since they're not a mainstream radio band.
Ty I’m in love with them and I’m going to see them in Los Angeles in two months. Try “All Them Witches” too. Love them too but they are no King Gizzard.
For ATW try “Blood and Sand/Milk and Endless Waters” and “Mama is a Shining Star.” Also, Joey from KGLW has a project called “Bullant” and Ambrose from KGLW is in The Murlocs.
@@garthkite All Them Witches is my favorite band in the world right now, their music just clicks me on a spiritual level! I'm seeing them all three days the play at the Troubadour in may!
These guys are amazing, and the best part of them is, that they're not envious of each-other, they know the gift they have and the bond they have created, no one thinks of themselves as better than the next guy. Its exciting to be alive to experience the The Lizard.
First time watching their videos today and yeah what I like about the vibe is it just seems like bunch of regular guys or friends got together and played music together just enjoying the moment, each contributing in their own way. No egos or trying to be showy or the star.
I always think if ween was just starting out they would have just as many albums/videos as KGLW. I can just imagine what the record company was thinking when they walked in saying our next album is country..we need the a team from Nashville.
Gizz functions perfectly as an orchestra organism. The perfection of this studio makes them truly shine. Production is impeccable. KEXP forever the best.
8:10 to 8:25 might be the first reason why I became an absolute fan of these guys, going from in your face all in to chill as fuck in 15 seconds doesn't happen by magic. One of the best KEXP seshes out there for damn sure. Also shout out the sound mixing guys as always. 9.9/10 because 10/10 is impossible.
I'm on day 2 of "discovering" these guys and man they're fuckin amazing! I haven't been blown away like this by anything "new" in a while. Looking forward to checking out their catalog which, from what I've seen in comments, is quite extensive.
Yea man. They release like 3-5 albums a year. Crazy. If you're into psychedelics, take some and listen to Polygondwanaland, it's absolutely crazy front to back while tripping.
They bring it up to a beautifully organized chaos then bring it down to serene preciousness. King Gizzy and the Lizzy Wizzy is the best band to stand on this earth. No one does it like them
this track is so intense, it builds up into a tornado of sounds, almost feeling claustrophobic...I feel on edge and anxious but just at the right moment before it becomes too much ( 8:30 ) the storm passes and you're plonked on a quiet beach and it's calm and relaxed. The anxiety is ripped away and replaced with a zen-like feeling...it's so freaking good!
This is my first foray into this band (I'd heard good things but never took the time to listen) and I was already vexed going into the video as I had to sit through 40 seconds of unskippable ads and thought to myself "this better be good!" By Christ was it fucking good!
6:24 when Lucas comes in with that bassline to back up Stu and Joey and Cookie, it really pulls it all together behind Ambrose ripping it on the vocals, seriously masterful stuff at work
I love how they start the "frog breath, steam tent" section by just playing the riff in this version instead of diving straight into the vocals. Lets the music breathe a little
Ive been listening to this song alot lately, the jam is something else and its better live, ive had a rough week and waking up to watch something while a have coffee and see this made my day
Hey, oh I'm in jail Body failed Now it's me and my iron lung (woo) Wrapped in iron, deathless purgatory Negative pressure, airless breath Wrapped in iron, breathless purgatory Positive pressure, airless death (woo) It's a different kind of cuttlefish Swing and a miss Dancing with my eyes and lips Can't move my hips Keep my mind distracted from the swish-swish Staying sane and positive Can't crumble like a biscuit Iron lung, iron lung Iron lung, iron lung Space shuttle, snail shell Merry go round, conveyor belt The army tank ventilator Mechanical bull respirator Metallic cocoon boredom Bionic boy, pump my organs Centre gravity, planet me Gimme the mushrooms, time to leave Iron lung, iron lung Iron lung, iron lung (woo) Frog breath, steam tent Neck paralysis Frog breath, steam tent Scared precarious Frog breath, steam tent Neck paralysis Congestion in my chest Pins and needles Like a voodoo evil Got my doctor baffled Every breath is an uphill battle Frog breath, steam tent Neck paralysis Congestion in my chest Frog breath, steam tent Neck paralysis Frog breath, steam tent Scared precarious Frog breath, steam tent Neck paralysis Sedated death Hey, oh The ship sailed Train derailed Now it's me and my iron lung Wrapped in iron, deathless purgatory Negative pressure, airless breath Wrapped in iron, breathless purgatory Positive pressure, airless death (woo) It's a different kind of cuttlefish Swing and a miss Dancing with my eyes and lips Can't move my hips Gotta keep my mind distracted from the swish-swish I'm staying sane and positive Can't crumble like a biscuit Iron lung, iron lung Iron lung, iron lung Cylindrical prison, newly arisen Chained to a giant paper weight Pain abates Yet darkness permeates Wallows my toes, burdens my chest My brain is pressed with an iron chest Iron lung, iron lung Iron lung, iron lung
The guitar riff from Stu at 4:12 makes this so damn good! Definitely better than the studio version. I wished they used that riff a bit more in the song.
Every Lizard's performance on KEXP sounds freakin' awesome. Cavs drums sounds groovy. Super rocking!! KG&LW's sound through the years captured on one album 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@@chost-059 Maybe it's cause they use that garage filter on several albums, that makes them sound raw or grungy, but it's completely intentional. But you're right, they sound awesome on live, mate

wake up babe new King Gizzard KEXP
Beat me to it lol
WOO!
Laugh out loud ladies 😃
Whoever runs their sound at KEXP is a wizard, crispest lives
Stu mixes the sound for KEXP performances lol
@@flan_fan1234Does this confirm that Stu is the Lizard Wizard??
Every damn time!
What a fucking beast Stu is god dayum @@flan_fan1234

Holy shit Ambrose is GOING OFF
his part at 05:30 genuinely made me cry a little bit, it's so fucking powerful, man
especially the voice crack at 5:37
I can’t believe these guys are actually real, holy shit!
The ability to bring music all the way to the edge of chaos, where you think it's all going to fall apart, but still hold it together and keep it sounding gorgeous...that's what happened here
Taoism says meaning is found on the boarder of order and chaos. As close to disaster as possible. It's exciting, it's where discoveries are made
Dude, i love your comment, it describes this song perfectly. I felt this tought was in the tip of my tounge but i couldnt describe it. (Sorry for the broken english)
Brilliantly put.
Is it still a guitar solo if there are three of them happening at once? Whatever we call it, I love it.
what a great comment! so true!!
definitely my favorite of the new songs. ambrose's screaming always gets to me.
Same here!! Almost any song with Ambrose singing is one of my favorites and this is no exception for me! Combined with Amby’s screaming and the hard jam at the end make it my favorite of their new songs and maybe top 5 King Gizzard songs all time!
Saw him live over the summer. They way he screams some of the lyrics to straws in the wind is wild
🐸😮💨♨️⛺️
truly a different kind of cuttlefish
everything in it's right place. Radiohead meets mars Volta, at both of their upper echelon stuff.
you are rewatching this and you are a legend
This comments 10 months old time to come for a rewatch
Ambrose went IN on the FROG BREATH STEAM TENT!
KGLW is the King Crimsom from our era change my mind
The way Lucas’ plays those bass lines are kinda crucial to Gizz, he really is the best.
And on the Sleeping Monster doc he talked about how he feels like he's behind all the other band members in terms of skill. I'd strongly disagree as I don't think there's a single weak member. Lucas is a total beast on the bass, and all 4 of their drummers are killing it.
it takes a very specific kind of bassist to be able to keep up with Cav's drumming. Cavs is an absolute beast on the drums, and Lukey provides the perfect low-end to conquer that beast.
Most underrated member of the band IMO
Listening to their 2019 KEXP recording too, so much of Infest the Rats' Nest relies on his bass riffs too
thanks to these live videos it really shows how amazing he is. Now when I listen to the studio albums I really pay attention to the bass.
Great comment bro .
Man, Ambrose kills it on this performance.
They ALL killed it
Every performance tbh
I've been thinking about an SNL type skit where he keeps bringing out more and more instruments to play, all while being perfectly pitched. I mean, I don't write skits, or anything else for that matter, but that type of vignette comes into my mind whenever I hear this song. Any illustrators out there want to bring this to life for me??
Amby and cookie make the band go from great to god tier
This version of this track is what made KGLW click for me. I’ve been obsessed with these weirdos ever since
when i want to introduce a friend to King Gizzard, not only i recommend Iron lung, but also this specific performance
Thats why im here right now haha
Same. Last month, he´s hooked.
You're a good friend. I keep spreading the word but no one I know gets it. Going to the Austin show in Nov. on a solo mish.
I showed my dad this song and specifically told him to watch this version.
This band is a great way to bring in the older “classic rock" crowd, instead of leaving them in the dustbins of history. Music that bridges gaps!!
Maaan Lucas is one of the best bass players but he didnt realize how fucking good he is
One of the greatest bands of our time.
all time :)
time band great 👍
One of the greatest bands to ever play.
Really not that exceptional.. My mind can be changed tho. This video just proves not that
@@mikomaxwell6313 Listen to their entire discography and then you'll see.
We're gonna need more Ambrose lead vocal parts going forward, lads.
He's an actual singer. I love Stu (as a fellow Stu) but he's not a singer.
@@stuartweston7644 I mean, for what they've been doing Stu has been great! But I feel like they're going to go to another level with more of a twin vocal attack
check out “the murlocs” if you want more ambrose singing, great band
@@slickmechanical Amby fronts his own band (with Cook) called "The Murlocs". Check it out!
Oh, Yes - Undone and Unashamed is amazing@@GuyWhoLikesTheSnarkies1435
As a man formerly known as Young Neil once said after a live performance "you should see them live, they're much better live"
The problem here is these recordings/performances are always exponentially better than the record version.
likewise with iron maiden and even with king krule and staff preferred the live versions than the discography versions
Is it a problem though? Album version is great as well! But this is just next level. 🤯
It's kinda like how cheating in a video game makes it not as fun to play. Recording techniques are kinda like "cheating."
album still is great, but the live performance is where they'll win you over
No problem here
THE ULTIMATE KEXP LIVE BAND
I'm an old rocker from the 80's metal scene. I dug the 90's something fierce. Not since then, have I been impressed....until discovering King Gizz. My Gen Z kiddo turned me onto them. As young as they are, they have hall of fame potential, heck, they may already be there(in my opinion, they are). Gives me a lot of hope for this next generation.
I hope god listen to you
This performance is a rock masterpiece and should be in the Smithsonian studied for generations. 💯🔥
Stu and Joey look like they were going as Hall and Oates for Halloween
I’ve watched this over 20 times. It quite literally cannot get old
same. i listen to my music on spotify, but whenever i wanna listen to this song, i open up youtube and listen to this version.
So many of the guitar licks here are so fucking good
What will happen when 「Its Got Old」?
I always follow Stu's guidance. When he says "Ok let's go", it's time to get gizzy wit it 💃🦎
Love that shit

moment of silence for the brilliance of Australia's very own flagship supergroup of new age psych rock
Fuck ya.
I would like to be there in the next cycle. There's some psychedelic burst happening there.
Gizz should just release a full KEXP live album. Just sayin...they sound great in that studio!!
They really should, This might be favourite version of any Gizz song ever. Even just this on Spotify and I’m happy
Do a vinyl set with the audio from all their appearances, donate the proceeds to keeping KEXP going. That station is just as much of a cultural gem as the band is.
I need their live stuff on streaming
KGATLW is just a different cuttlefish!
I watch this every couple months. One of the BEST UA-cam videos period.
Me too
This is the thing that sets King Gizzard apart from even other psych bands, the studio version of this sounds like an impromptu psych jam but the bar that the guitar solo becomes a refrain, the drums recognise that and go heavy on the bell to accentuate it. It seems free flowing but it’s all heavily orchestrated. Even in a 10 minute song everyone knows their part at all times. Fucking excellent
The riff at 5:14, and Amby just belting at 5:30, will forever give me chills. Need this released please!
for real
saur true
same riffs
FROG BREATH STEAM TENT
This is already known as "that part" of Iron Lung
6:38 holy FUCK ambrose kills this. Instant chills down my spine
THEY SHOULD RELEASE A LIVE ALBUM OF THIS JUST SAYING MY BROTHERS IN CHRIST IT IS WHAT IT IS THAT IS IT. 🤝🏻🤝🏻🤝🏻🛵💦
With most bands one would say "what an awesome set" but with King G it's a single song. This was on fire, loved it 🔥
They did 3 songs
How tf does Michael play that good for that long. Like there's slow parts and he's still going crazy on the drums the whole time. The boys never give him a break
he's got persistence.
Still waiting for a reggae album
Huh
That would be dope
RATTLESNAKERATTLESNAKERATTLESNAKERATTLESNAKE

It helps that Lucas looks sexy as all hell while playing it
which one? there were like a million bass riffs xD
Yess Yess Yess!!
Amby. What an excellent vocal
This song live is possibly the best of their KEXP saga thus far
My favorite all time band since Radiohead. To be able to put out this quality of music in such a short time frame is truly a special accomplishment. However pessimistic I may be about modern rock these guys give me hope. A truly singular band. No one is comparable

This is literally my favorite performance by any artist of all time.
"the lizard band" as my friends calls them; is back on kexp! letsgoooo
Blows the studio version out of the water. Absolutely brilliant
Just like every other Gizzard live versions do :D
Yeah is it a different arrangement??
@@ashleymenegon6319 yeah they jam a bit on the live, but this recording is their best live of the song i think
How many harmonies do we want to put into this song?
Yes.

Greatest band of the modern era.
You're in for a treat , such fantastic music from a huge amount of albums

couldn’t be better well said. Awsome band
@@raddude4826 thanks dude.
I’d argue to say that they think the other members are better than themselves. They look up to each other.
@@LaDarko good way of putting it, you can see this a lot in the tour documentary they released as well
First time watching their videos today and yeah what I like about the vibe is it just seems like bunch of regular guys or friends got together and played music together just enjoying the moment, each contributing in their own way. No egos or trying to be showy or the star.
The Grateful Dead and Phish paved the way for jam bands like this to thriiive. Its honestly incredible how talented these guys are.
Also WEEN, the OG genre chameleon
they are not a jamband
I always think if ween was just starting out they would have just as many albums/videos as KGLW. I can just imagine what the record company was thinking when they walked in saying our next album is country..we need the a team from Nashville.
Ween isn’t a jam band, but boy can they jam.
Music is alive and well... right here.
still get chills when ambrose takes the mic and screaming. that passion is like none other
I could listen to this song on a ten hour loop
No chaos involved. Complete wonderful control.
Love how Stu is rocking the Patagonia snap T 😂
Dad mode.
It wasn't until this performance that I realized how amazing this song is. Probably my favorite song of the year, now.

1:30 I love that break with just stu and the bass
Also the resolution/piano transition at 8:26 is fucking magic
Too fucking good. Too fucking good.
Two fucking goog
This was the video that made gizzard click for me. Ambys “Frog breath steam tent!” Specifically is the moment and I’ve been hooked since
This is the best tune about the treatment of polio that I've ever heard!
Hey, oh
I'm in jail
Body failed
Now it's me and my iron lung (woo)
Wrapped in iron, deathless purgatory
Negative pressure, airless breath
Wrapped in iron, breathless purgatory
Positive pressure, airless death (woo)
It's a different kind of cuttlefish
Swing and a miss
Dancing with my eyes and lips
Can't move my hips
Keep my mind distracted from the swish-swish
Staying sane and positive
Can't crumble like a biscuit
Iron lung, iron lung
Iron lung, iron lung
Space shuttle, snail shell
Merry go round, conveyor belt
The army tank ventilator
Mechanical bull respirator
Metallic cocoon boredom
Bionic boy, pump my organs
Centre gravity, planet me
Gimme the mushrooms, time to leave
Iron lung, iron lung
Iron lung, iron lung (woo)
Frog breath, steam tent
Neck paralysis
Frog breath, steam tent
Scared precarious
Frog breath, steam tent
Neck paralysis
Congestion in my chest
Pins and needles
Like a voodoo evil
Got my doctor baffled
Every breath is an uphill battle
Frog breath, steam tent
Neck paralysis
Congestion in my chest
Frog breath, steam tent
Neck paralysis
Frog breath, steam tent
Scared precarious
Frog breath, steam tent
Neck paralysis
Sedated death
Hey, oh
The ship sailed
Train derailed
Now it's me and my iron lung
Wrapped in iron, deathless purgatory
Negative pressure, airless breath
Wrapped in iron, breathless purgatory
Positive pressure, airless death (woo)
It's a different kind of cuttlefish
Swing and a miss
Dancing with my eyes and lips
Can't move my hips
Gotta keep my mind distracted from the swish-swish
I'm staying sane and positive
Can't crumble like a biscuit
Iron lung, iron lung
Iron lung, iron lung
Cylindrical prison, newly arisen
Chained to a giant paper weight
Pain abates
Yet darkness permeates
Wallows my toes, burdens my chest
My brain is pressed with an iron chest
Iron lung, iron lung
Iron lung, iron lung
never seen stu use the whammy bar like that. insane
Same, I just never thought I’d see this in Gizz.
Wow…. Just F*****g Wow!!!!
The best band of the time imo
The guitar riff from Stu at 4:12 makes this so damn good! Definitely better than the studio version. I wished they used that riff a bit more in the song.
That part gets me every time, I completely agree. One of my favorite licks
I was looking for this comment. It feels really mournful
The coolest set of blokes about.
Rest in peace Mr. Iron Lung
Maaaaan the drumer is a monster, i love it, godamn!!!
I sent this to my dad and he was so confused
Every Lizard's performance on KEXP sounds freakin' awesome.
Cavs drums sounds groovy. Super rocking!!
KG&LW's sound through the years captured on one album 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Ngl i prefer the KEXP performances over the studio recordings by a longshot, the energy is better with these performances
@@chost-059 Maybe it's cause they use that garage filter on several albums, that makes them sound raw or grungy, but it's completely intentional.
But you're right, they sound awesome on live, mate
Amby going off at 05:30 is my favourite part of this song, he does his part amazingly.
Edit: months later this still has to be one of the best performances I've ever seen, personally
Hats off to drummer 👏 pocket life
We'll done ....i think its awesome that you guy make a decent living out of the music/style you make....
Thankyou
6 months later and this song still absolutely fucks, brilliant all around
The current theme tune at Friday teatime Hebden Bridge skatepark session ✌️
The tension build up in feeling and comprehending that collaboration of intensity in music blows my mind. I rejoice in your creativity and skill and if I had an iron lung this song would cure it lol.
Honestly one of the best live performances here on youtube. What an experience
Each one a super talented musician! Always love hearing Ambrose vocals on a track!
This groove could bring me back from the dead.
