Melbourne’s mighty King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard made their US TV debut last night as musical guests on Conan.
Though they’re currently touring the US behind February’s the release of their album “Flying Microtonal Banana”, the Gizzards treated the viewing audience to ‘Lord of Lightning’, one of the 21 tracks featured on their next release of this year and their 10th album “Murder Of The Universe” .
Conan, who was impressed by the band Middle Kids earlier this year , seemed suitably thrilled by King Gizzard’s seven-man strong shred storm. And you can tell he just relished announcing the band’s name on air.
After crushing Coachella over the weekend, King Gizzard are squeezing in a couple headline shows before heading back to the desert for the second weekend of the Californian festival. They’ll be touring the UK and Europe in June in the lead-up to releasing “Murder Of The Universe” (out 23 June).
