King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have announced a new run of UK and EU dates.
The shows follow the band’s just-released new album ‘The Silver Cord’, which arrived last month in two versions; one condensed, and one extended.
“The first version’s really condensed, trimming all the fat,” Stu Mackenzie says of the release. “And on the second version, that first song, ‘Theia’, is 20 minutes long. It’s the ‘everything’ version – those seven songs you’ve already heard on the first version, but with a whole lot of other shit we record while making it. It’s for the Gizz-heads.”
