Just bought my tickets, check your email. code is magma. Driving from OKC on the day after halloween back out to CO.

I am so wanting to go to all three shows, but I can't justify traveling back in the middle of the week for one show. AHH! I would be all over it if it was on the day after the others.

If i wasn't already going to be 7 hours from home in OKC on that Monday for Halloween I most likely would have passed but when in OKC lol.

I was hoping for a weekend date, but oh well. Guess I’ll keep my October tickets. On the upside, this will easily be the longest I’ve ever held on to a set of tickets.

Well I did a goof and didn’t pre order the new album and it looks like it’s not available through Gizzverse. Anyone have any leads? I don’t want to order through Amazon

[Tillman]

[Tillman]

I swear I just heard a second of Perihelion in Predator X

 

[LiamGallaghersBucketHat]

I’ve seen this said a few times, but does anyone think the band would be bigger if they existed in the 90’s?

 

[Tillman]

what a weird, wild album... ........... but why does it sound like it's going to lead into another album at the very, very end with the metronome? ha ha

 

[LiamGallaghersBucketHat]

Beastie Boys vibe on Sadie Sorceress

 

[BoilerRhapsody]

Really enjoyed my first listen, as usual. Actually seem like a good introductory album, like a showcase of everything they're known for and capable of.

 

[Hemotep]

This is cool!

no other band at the caliber of King Gizz is taking as many risks, at least none off the top. Not many groups can pull off the amount of genres that this band has, let alone their work ethic.

I have been hesitant to give these guys that amount of praise, but they absolutely deserve more praise and credit.

I knew something had to be going on with that ending..

Listened once through on the way to Fuzz last night. Enjoyed what I heard, going to take a bit to digest. Obviously liked some songs more than others because it's such a variety but it flowed pretty well for how different each thing sounded.

yeah man, one of the more impressive aspects of this album is how well it flows for such a diverse album.

I'm kind of surprised how much I like it upon a listen and a half. I'm not sure why I always go in with tempered expectations with them by now, but I just wasn't sure about this one going in. the rapping tracks are much better in execution than on paper but they're not my favorite. "Persistence" wasn't a favorite either, but I love that they tossed it all in making this easily the most diverse album from a pretty diverse band!

Edit: I may take back what I said about "Persistence" as I'm listening to it again, the lyrics are goofy but it fucking grooves...I could see it being super fun if they play it at a show

 

[Tillman]

man, "Predator X" is a weird song. it's super heavy but eschews the typical blast drumming for a shuffle beat for most of the track.. what a strange, interesting choice
