  1. 9.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Overall, it’s clear that King Gizz’s tireless effort over the past 8 years still has no end in sight as they release yet another radical and innovative album which doesn’t fall short of the endless inspiration that King Gizzard continue to shine

  9. 6.0 |   musicOMH

    Hidden behind the zany Beetlejuice meets Games Workshop model kit that adorns the cover of the album lies a bright yellow K.G. Strip away the adornments of genre and the graphic kookiness and this band will supply a cave full of treasures
