King Gizzard & The Echharard Wizard shared “Grow Wings and Fly”, the third preview of Phantom Island. On June 13th as a second publication in her own (P) Doom Records, the 27th studio album of the Australian Sextet is its formal psycho-garage rock with a full orchestra from strings, horns and wooden windows. With the former singles “Deadstick” and the title track, the band made it clear that their next project may be at home and the loving final cut of the album and the right bizarre music video hammer that home.

King Gizzard designed an orchestral documentation for the first time – one with very few styles that they had not yet taken in – in 2023 when they crossed the Hollywood Bowl paths with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. A year later, when they flew through the sessions, they were Flight B741You have worked out ten more promising tracks that do not fit. The front man Stu Mackenzie found them “more difficult to end them. Musically they needed a little more time and space and thought. We had to spray different color on the screen.”

Enter the keyboardist, conductor and arranger Chad Kelly, who formed historically informed and disruptive orchestratations to merge the sound of the band with the approach of the Philharmonic. Together, the employees have set up with a variety of songs and unprecedented virtuosity. “We come from such different worlds – he plays Mozart and Bach and uses the same harpsichords that they made and votes you in exactly the same way,” said Mackenzie about Kelly. “But he is also obsessed with microtonal music and all these nerds like me.”

“Grow Wings and Fly” is a further proof of this triumphal pairing, which corresponds to an emerging and wistful guitar with symphonic swelling that pulls on heart strings. Blissinges Out -Hollering and texts that dance through the renewal continue the emphasis on the project on earthly, suitable and “introverted” songwriting; This powerful feeling finds its way into the creatures with music videos by Hayden Somerville, which is as tender as it is damn.

“There are so many strange and nice opportunities to grow and fly wings,” said Somerville. “With the band and our crew we had a very special time on the coast and released our sea creature – which I somehow feel a little sick and full of joy at the same time.”

“When I was younger, I was only interested in freaking out people,” thought Mackenzie about the broader project. “But when I get older, I am much more interested in connecting to people.”

King Gizzard will bring her sound powder to the stage Phantom Island The tour, which will include another 28-member orchestra on each of his nine appearances from July 28th to August 11th.
