King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Announce New Album PetroDragonic Apocalypse

The post King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Announce New Album PetroDragonic Apocalypse appeared first on Consequence.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have announced their new album and just staying true to their verbose aesthetic, has been titled PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation. No release date has been given, but pre-orders open on May 16th.

The Australian collective revealed the project via KG+LW’s socials with no release date, tracklist, or accompanying single, but rather an epic, fittingly apocalyptic painting by longtime collaborator Jason Galea that serves as its cover artwork. In April, the band described their latest set as “heavy as fuck” via Twitter.

PetroDragonic Apocalypse ends an uncharacteristically quiet period for the prolific band, who released their most recent LP, Changes, just weeks after their back-to-back, previous efforts, Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava and Laminated Denim, in October 2022.

Looking ahead, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard are set to appear at Boston Calling in May, followed by their previously announced “North American Residency Tour” kicking off in June. The group will also pay visits to Europe and Australia this summer. Check for tickets and deals here, and see their full 2023 itinerary below.
