Okay so besides Sketches of East Brunswick, which is a great album mainly because of The Mile High Club, I am done giving King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard chances. I just got finished listening to Infest the Rats Nest and what in the actual f*ck are they even trying to do anymore? What a lame ass attempt to be a thrash band. Terrible production and totally unforgettable riffs and structure. Boring ass sh*t. I used to give them chances because they seemed to shake things up a bit but the last four records have been god awful and I'm tired of attempting to like this band anymore.

They're just doing their thing mang. I think they're generally forgettable too though.

I think I remember Frown repping some Gizzard thrash song a little while back and thinking it sounded exactly like any ****ty thrash revival song from a decade ago which is why the thrash revival was nothing but a novelty beyond a few good albums from 80s bands who weren't just drunk dip****s having a laugh.

"Double bass pedal + some guitar doodly doos = Thrash? Yeah let's just roll with that. Oh and if the singer can rip of Hetfield as much as he can that'd be great. Thanks King Gizz! See next week for your new album idea."

I thought that the vocalist sounded more like Karl Agell imitating James Hetfield.

I thought that it was ok. Felt slapped onto the film if I'm being honest. I was just like oh neat, Mr. Stetson is here.

Infest The Rats' Nest was fine. Better than the countless metal bands out there who don't even try these days.

You find John Lennon's Beatle songs hard to relate to? That surprises me

I'm pretty sure the 'I used to be cruel to my woman' is Paul, and I'm certain that Taxman is George. I have the same problem with those lyrics obviously. But anyway, I get what you mean, but many of John Lennon's songs weren't hypocritical at all (take Run For Your Life for example) and you could sort of say the same about Lou Reed: his songs are sensitive and relatable even though he was a huge *******. He often was very honest about his misdemeanors in his songs, but John Lennon could be like that too

that's true, but don't you think there is a discrepancy between Lou Reed's character and his lyrics?
