So I've fallen in love with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard lately, Nonagon Infinity and their newest album are both amazing. I was wondering if you guys could recommend me some other psychedelic rock bands with eastern influences

>newest album was amazing
woah slow down there cowboy
It is though? It doesn't have the same energy as Nonagon but it's still really good and every track is amazing except for maybe Anoxia
if you like king giz youll probably like psychedelic porn crumpets
not even the best Perth psych rock band
i shall have a listen
The "eastern influences" on the new King Gizzard album are an absolute meme. They took microtonal tuning and did nothing with it other than make the same 10 boring derivative psych rock songs
I don't know anything about Microtonal tuning? Can anyone explain it to a retard?
tone > semitones > microtones
Love King Gizzard but if you want actual psych rock tinged with Eastern sounds just go to the Eastern psych rock scenes, especially Anatolian Rock. Look up Selda, Erkin Koray, Cem Karaca, Baris Manco, Mogollar, and just dive into that.
quite good
i like Pond, Bass Drum of Death, Fuzz, Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees.
Picture the interval from a C to a D
A C# is halfway between that.
Halfway between C and C# is a C quarter-sharp.
Halfway between C# and D is a C three-quarter-sharp.
These guys are on the same label as King Gizzard
Ayy, love me some Babe Rainbow. They legitly manage to pull off coming across as a band from the 70s. Planet Junior is a groove.
Jesus christ you talk like a moron
Fuzz > Manipulator > Ty Rex > Lemons > Ty Segall(2008)
I probably am one, what's it to you?
>they took microtonal tuning and did nothing with it
THIS
it was so disappointing; but their songs are still catchy enough.
>every track is amazing except for the second best track
Huh
Get amongst it mate.
The Bennies fucking kill it.
I checked out them for the first time yesterday with their new album and I'm pleasantly surprised, however I can't help but wishing that a bomb could go off at some point. Most of the songs are relatively stable and there's nothing that keeps you on the edge of your seat, there is action but nothing that has you holding on. I did really like the songwriting though, and I think I'll be looking into them some more.
Honestly of all the shit that faggots have to say on Sup Forums you could say this about and you use it on this comment?
reporting from turkey. people actually liked the microtonal banana thing but i think it's a bit boring too. try this.
Nonagon Infinity and I'm In Your Mind Fuzz have that balls-to-the-wall high-octane feeling alot more, if that's what you're looking for.
I honestly liked the new album alot because mood-wise they went back to the chilled-out vibe of Quarters. Personally very exciting to see Jason Galea make a spaghetti-western music video for Billabong valley, it's almost a given.
I don't know much about modern psychedelic rock bands, can someone guide me or give me a summary of where to start?
Also downloading links too I guess, since I don't know what to search for in the archive.
start by turning around and walking away
I'll look into those, how are the songs though? I also dig the chilled out-ness of a lot of the songs on the new album but I really just wanted there to be more variety than there was more than anything, and with the new album a few more extreme moments would've gone a long way.
Listening to this album now. I don't care about the tuning, but yeah. I don't understand how people can get so enthusiastic over this. It's the same trite shit that I've been hearing for decades. It doesn't have a soul and it's boring.
I second this if you enjoy this tuning. Or proceed directly to the ISIS nasheeds.
A few of my top favorite contemporary bands besides KG:
- Camera (berlin band, oldschool kraut NEU! ripoff)
- Monomyth and 35007 (two different spacerock bands, but they share 75% of their members)
- Colour Haze
- Ufomammut (psychedelic doom)
- Oresund Space Collective (all improv)
- Rotor
- Verma (especially EXU)
- Om (has members of the legendary Sleep, pulls off the eastern influences alot more than KG)
Well, honestly, KG is a good band if you want variety, but not within the same album. Every album has a different sound and genre. But I'm honestly a big fan of them, arguably my favorite contemporary band, so you won't get a neutral judgement from me.
I honestly like their chilled-out jazzy album, Quarters, the best. KEXP has a very good live version of one of the songs.
>Baris Manco
Thank you for introducing me to Turkish Frank Zappa.
Pilgrimage - God is Good - Advaitic Songs is an awesome trilogy, I wonder if there are other bands that sound like that, with a heavier and more focused eastern influence?
This is shit. I hate backward looking psych rock that literally takes the most cringe aspects of the genre and regurgitates it. It feels so hollow and fake
