LP on 180-Gram Red/Yellow/Black Vinyl

Originally released in 2016, Nonagon Infinity is the eighth studio album by the Australian psychedelic rock band.

“The album is designed to flow continuously from song to song with no breaks in what the band calls an infinite loop, and unless one is listening very closely it’s hard to tell where one song stops and the next begins. To help make the gimmick work, the songs are very similar in energy and approach, with lyrics from one song turning up in another and guitar riffs cycling through from one section to another. The energy level is mainly set to search and destroy throughout as the drums thunder, the lightning-fast guitars slash and burn, and the spacy vocals often break out into ecstatic shouts. The band has added some supercharged Sabbathy metal to its sound, and it works very well.

“King Gizzard’s inventive sound, giant hooks, and hard-as-titanium playing make Nonagon Infinity not only their best album yet, but maybe the best psych-metal-jazz-prog album ever. That can be debated, but at the very least artists like the Flaming Lips, Ty Segall, and others who think they are doing something cool and weird should check it out and take a few notes.” (Tim Sendra, AllMusic.com, 5/5 stars)
