They were top banana when I saw them last year, highly recommend. Hope this means new music, think I ended up listening to Old Locomotive last year more than any of the Gizz albums.

I think I saw in the press release that they've been working on new material between their other commitments and that there is more news to come so I reckon a new record is inevitable! I really hope Gizz do an extensive UK tour like this instead of the usual Scotland, Manchester, London affair!

I'm from Manchester so I'm alright with their usual thing ahah, if maybe they could not clash with Oh Sees when playing my favorite venue again that'd be great

Too early to revisit the farm I'm guessing?

Shame as they put on a great show in Manchester earlier this year!

Nah they’ve released 29 albums since the last festival ?

(well 3, plus 1 during the festival)

Supposedly no new music from King Gizz until mid 2019, saw someone on twitter met one of their mums at green man when they headlined, so could well be back, how often do non stage headliner/subs return only a year later?

It's two years anyway, so I'd imagine we'll see more returns from the previous festival than we usually do, as more acts will be onto their next album than usual. With King Gizz having released several albums since their last appearance I don't think they're unlikely to play.

At this point if the Lizard Wizards don't drop at least an album a month I'm disappointed.

Murlocs are back on tour in Feb.

Could be of interest to a few of you!

Someone beat me to it too. Looking forward to it as haven't seen them.

Only Gizz related in style, worth a go if you're not familiar with them and like King Gizzard though. Lighter direction than the other albums but still lovely, really worth catching live if you get the chance, think they're touring early next year. 

Really, really hate the band name though, they're so much better than it ahah

I don't know why I had this already in the text box but I'm leaving it there.

"Porn Crumpets" is fine, but being a psych rock band and calling yourself "Psychedelic" anything is fucking lame.

[Mash011]

Setlists from the recent Australian tour have been pretty wild. Last night they did Work This Time for the first time ever and Pop In My Step (!!!!!!) for the first time since 2013. Praying they come back here some time soon with sets like this.

I saw them a year ago in Melbourne at Gizzfest and thought they were great. I guess if you like the Ambrose fronted stuff that Gizz do you'll dig them although can understand why it may grate on some people. Plenty of harmonica action too which is always good live! I find that the harmonica gets lost in the mix a lot of the time at Gizz shows but its right at the forefront with The Murlocs. Grab a ticket!

[Apone]

I saw Gizz headline the Green Man festival this year, they were awseome unrelenting wall of noise, utterly superb

[Tyonks]

Saw Gizz at Glastonbury and Brixton earlier this year. Brilliant both times. Heading to EOTR next year - would love to see them there
