Broken down into 3 distinct ‘chapters’, the track listing of the sprawling 21-track album, which is concerned with the downfall of man and the death of the planet. The album was recorded at Flightless HQ in East Brunswick, Melbourne Australia in early 2017 and produced by the band’s Stu Mackenzie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLit by thunderclaps and lightning, \u003cem\u003eMurder Of The Universe\u003c\/em\u003e 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. A disorientating experience, the album hinges on three distinct sections that rise from larval beds, and whose lyrics should be carved in stone, squeezed from moss, discovered in ancient runes. And all the while a passing cast of characters imbue the tale with both human and non-human emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSnippets of earlier recordings breakthrough collection \u003cem\u003eI’m In Your Mind Fuzz\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eNonagon Infinity\u003c\/em\u003e resurface throughout like ghostly shadow form to haunt their latest sound. In years to come King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard will be judged not by their separate albums, but by a body of work where themes, melodies, motifs, riffs and ideas resurface and recur, each album peeling back a layer of the onion to glimpse at past and future alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA New World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltered Beast I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlter Me I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltered Beast II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlter Me II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltered Beast III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlter Me III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltered Beast IV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLife \/ Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome Context\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Reticent Raconteur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Lord Of Lightning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Balrog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Floating Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Acrid Corpse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelcome To An Altered Future\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHan-Tyumi, The Confused Cyborg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoy-Protein Munt Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVomit Coffin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMurder Of The Universe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Heavenly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51008261128538,"sku":"HVNLP140CD","price":10.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1481\/5374\/files\/king-gizzard-murder-universe-cd.jpg?v=1744822304","url":"https:\/\/freebirdrecords.com\/products\/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-murder-of-the-universe-cd","provider":"Freebird Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
