King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Butterfly 3000

Butterfly 3000 is the eighteenth studio album by Australian psychedelic rock band King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, released in June 2021 via KGLW.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are proud to release their third album of 2021, Butterfly 3000, via the band’s own KGLW label. The band have decided to play this one close to the vest, and will drop the album in its entirety on June 11th without any advance singles, or sharing the album artwork, which will be a cross-eyed autostereogram created by long-time collaborator Jason Galea.

Butterfly 3000 might be their most fearless leap into the unknown yet; a suite of ten songs that all began life as arpeggiated loops composed on modular synthesisers, before being fashioned into addictive, optimistic and utterly seductive dream-pop by the six-piece.

The album sounds simultaneously like nothing they’ve ever done before, and thoroughly, unmistakeably Gizz, down to its climactic neon psych-a-tronic flourish.

This is undoubtedly the most accessible and jubilant album of their career.

This album is on 180 gram heavyweight red, blue or yellow coloured vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeve and brown paper eco-friendly bag, pressed in Australia via KGLW.
