Phantom Island

Phantom Island, the 27th release from  King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, fuses their signature psychedelic sound with orchestral arrangements. Initially recorded without strings, the Australian band later partnered with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and conductor Chad Kelly to incorporate lush orchestral layers. The album delivers a distinctive blend of psychedelic tracks enriched by classical influences, creating a captivating and innovative listening experience. It evokes a fusion of ELO, Zappa, and The Beatles, all filtered through King Gizzard’s unique style. This album is stunning and highly recommended, even for those who aren’t devoted fans of the band.
