Float Along – Fill Your Lungs

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

2013

9

I do legitimately think there's some filler here, but the bookends are just too insanely strong with "Head On / Pill" and "Float Along – Fill Your Lungs." Especially with the band expanding more and more into live improvisation, these two tracks will continue to take on new life over their career, which doesn't really happen with a lot of the other tracks here. A couple of the middle tracks like "Let Me Mend the Past" and "Mystery Jack" are solid in their own right, but the clear stars of the show are the aforementioned bookends, and they're good enough to buoy this album near the top tier of their work.
