This honestly has no right to be as good as it is, even if it's ultimately very minor in King Gizzard's catalog. If the band didn't churn out albums at an astronomical rate, doing something this gimmicky would probably be way more of a waste of time, but it's kind of a fun blip on the radar as-is. Of their very early albums, this one is pretty solid, and really does stand out by way of the old western narration going on. The earlier albums of somewhat generic garage rock fare don't stand out like Eyes Like the Sky does in that context, so for that it's notable.
