Maestros of rock, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard Unveiled their new album giving continuity to their legacy. The album is titled ‘The Silver Cord’ and will be released on 27th October via KGLW. The album’s opening suite features three songs: ‘Theia’, ‘The Silver Cord’ and ‘Set’.
For the first time in their career, King Gizzard is breaking new ground by offering ‘The Silver Cord’ album in two distinct versions. The first one features the seven catchy tracks and the second offers an extensive and epic collection of remixes.
The band’s Stu Mackenzie said in a statement: “The first version’s really condensed, trimming all the fat. And on the second version, that first song, “Theia,” is 20 minutes long. It’s the “everything” version—those seven songs you’ve already heard on the first version, but with a whole lot of other shit we record while making it. It’s for the Gizz-heads. I love Donna Summer’s records with Giorgio Moroder, and I’d never listen to the short versions now—I’m one of those people who wants to hear the whole thing. We’re testing the boundaries of people’s attention spans when it comes to listening to music, perhaps—but I’m heavily interested in destroying such concepts.”
Furthermore, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, who recently headlined at the End of The Road festival, have been announced as the headliners for Wide Awake Festival 2024. This is now London’s annual event to showcase new variations in music.
