Lit by thunderclaps and lightning, 'Murder of the Universe' inhabits a sonic landscape of death, decay, ossification, fossilisation, rebirth. It is a place occupied by wandering shape-shifting beasts, bleeding skies, pools of blood, great fires and mushroom clouds; a planet rent asunder by conflict. Review: Concept prog meets acid punk - This album split fans. Those who couldn't stand the spoken word and those who "got it". This album is technically only 3 tracks long. Each song is very long however with many different sections. Whilst an earlier album "nonagon infinity" had 9 songs that all played into each other and looped around. This one has songs intended as epics. King Gizzard don't take their selves seriously and that's a big part of having fun with this album. Technical playing and genre mixing, with spoken word throughout. What is refreshing about this is a band making long songs as artistic lengthy pieces rather than singles. In an era dominated by digital download singles. It's rare artists make proper concept album formats. This album is crazy, if you like their faster heavier works this album is for you providing you can get along with the pompous mystic spoken word and the speaking robot that wants to feel emotion, han tyuomi. Epic, bonkers, brilliant, tons of fun and an engaging listen. Review: Guns are cracking bums are smacking - Ahhhh, this album is my favourite thing ever! Since first seeing the wizards at Glastonbury (sadly on the tele-box :( I've turned into an obsessed nut job and delving my way through their awesome back catalogue and watching all the you tube vids. It's not often that a new (or rather current) band grabs my attention like this. My roots are in rock, but I also love squelchy psy trance and I can really hear some of the bass lines in this in some of the dance music I listen to and equally high energy (listen to the lovely squelchy bits in The Acrid Corpse). I've now listened several trillion times to MOTU, Flyying Microtonal Banana, and Nonagon Infinity and this is def my fave (although the others are also very cool). I love everything about this album, it's so different - I love the sci-fi fantasy element with the story and love that it plays like one long track with different hooks reappearing though out. My misunderstanding of the aussie accent makes it even more fun, it definitely sounds like they're singing 'Guns are cracking, bums are smacking' on The Lord of Lightening, my one disappointment was finding out that isn't the actual lyric.

Bonkers, unhinged and amazing
I came across King Gizzard playing parts of this LP live on KEXP. What a find! I've not been as excited about finding a new band in years, already bought three of their albums in the last week. This album is wild, crazy, heavy, strange, occasionally hilarious and musically brilliant. Don't be put off by what looks like lots of very short songs on the tracklisting - there are only really 3 very long songs here. The first 4 minutes of Han-Tyumi (Welcome To an Altered Future and Digital Black) are some of the most exciting rock I've heard in a very long time. And these guys, despite their brilliant musical discipline and remarkable workrate, are still audibly having a whale of a time - as I hope you will if you buy this album. Agreed, there is a bit too much spoken word and I'd love to hear a version of the album with 90% of it removed to let the music breathe, but, particularly in the final suite, the words are so integral to the (insane) story of the universe being destroyed in an apocalyse of vomit, it wouldn't be the same without them. Off to buy the 10 albums I've not yet got...

Stunning album.
Unbelievable band. This is a concept album of 3 separate parts. This band are the best around at the moment and one of the best I've ever heard. Seen them live and they were so good I've booked to see them again. Honestly, one of the best bands I've heard in many years.

One of the greatest prog-metal albums ever. Designed to be heard on vinyl.

Un gran álbum y una gran edición! Si eres fan de KGLW, así como de las ediciones locochonas en vinilo no lo pienses tanto. Es un buen álbum, no el mejor pero muy disfrutable y con un Lore bastante interesante. Recomendado sin duda, llegó antes de tiempo y muy bien protegido.
