They've explored many musical genres, such as psychedelic pop, heavy thrash metal, doom metal, psychedelic rock, garage rock, krautrock, jazz-pop, jazz-fusion, progressive rock, jam rock, and spaghetti western. Willoughby's Beach and 12 Bar Bruise define the band's early sound. Both records were recorded on 4 iPhones and the albums are actually pretty good. Eyes Like The Sky is their spaghetti western album, and the album works as more of an audiobook rather than a traditional music album. Then they defined their modern sound in the record Float Along - Fill Your Lungs, starting with a 16 minute long song that is an amazing journey to go through. Oddments is their first album where different songs have various genres and is in the middle for consistency compared to the other two "miscellaneous" albums. One genre that this album could be generalized into is psychedelic, but there is some folk-y stuff in the album, specifically Vegemite and Crying. Vegemite is the band's most personal song, because Stu (the lead singer) actually likes vegemite a lot. This album isn't really a fan favorite, but it still remains to be a great album.

Then we get to their first album I would consider for a high ranking, I'm In Your Mind Fuzz. The first four songs transition into each other to craft one song, then the other songs play out, like how Float Along - Fill Your Lungs is structured. Their first masterpiece single was in 2013, Head On / Pill, and this album is their first masterpiece album. Am I In Heaven? has an acoustic section in the beginning, middle, and end of the song, while in between is the more heavy stuff. Speaking of acoustic sections, the band decided to craft a fully acoustic album in 2015. This album is Paper Mache Dream Balloon. This album may be one of their most underrated albums. The album goes with the trope of happy sounding music having dark lyrics. The entire album is about a serial killer with a facade that plays out as normalcy, and is mentioned to not be guilty for reason of insanity, which is what NGRI stands for. Quarters is another album from 2015 and I've only really listened to The River, but it's likely a good idea to skip the other songs. Then they came up with their first perfect album. Nonagon Infinity. This was their heaviest album before Infest The Rat's Nest and Murder of the Universe came out, and the special gimmick of this album was that it could be played infinitely. I've been wanting to have a vinyl record since I was about 15 or 16, and this album became my first vinyl record when I turned 18. I love this album and listening to it over and over again is an amazing experience.

We get to another era in this band's discography. They come up with a huge task. They decide to release 5 albums in one year. They've already been pumping quality releases year after year, and in 2017 the band decides to release these 5 albums, and they will do this again 5 years later. They explore microtonal music and how it would fit in with rock music. They come up with Flying Microtonal Banana, which is one of the first times microtones have been used in Western music. Microtones originate from the Middle East and the Ottoman region, and the band used this piece of music theory in their rock music. The other unique thing I've noticed in some of the tracks on this album is the de-sync of drums. I forgot to mention the band had two drummers, Michael Cavanagh and Eric Moore, until 2020 when Eric Moore dropped out of the band. Murder of the Universe picks up on the audiobook idea displayed before in Eyes Like The Sky, but this time it works as a musical album too. The album has three chapters. The first chapter is about a human stumbling upon a monster-human hybrid with murderous intent. The human that stumbles upon this beast has an interest in becoming powerful, and the beast starts to have mutual intentions too, and they merge and, as a result of absorbing another consciousness, it suffers and becomes more murderous. The altered beast then slowly decays. The second chapter is about the Lord of Lightning, where he invokes suffering on townspeople until he accidentally reanimates a corpse, which becomes a creature known as Balrog. The Lord of Lightning then has an epic battle with the Balrog. The Lord of Lightning wins and he stops bothering the townsfolk. The third chapter is about a person that creates a soy protein munt machine, which is a robot whose sole purposes are to vomit and die. The munt machine rejects the creator's love, so the creator decides to merge with his creation, becoming a cyborg. This album initiates the idea of the Gizzverse, the idea that the band is a concept band, linking albums together to create a story. This is purely a fan creation, and the story of the Gizzverse is up to the fans. Speaking of the Gizzverse, a fan made compilation known as Murder of the Nonagon Fuzz reveals a secret album where songs from different albums link up to each other.

King Gizzard is already halfway through the year, and they have 6 more months to release 3 albums. They collaborate with another band, Mild High Club, to create Sketches of Brunswick East, a jazz rock album. There is background noise throughout the album and it adds to the atmosphere. You will hear more of Han Tyumi throughout the discography, which is the Charles TTS voice. You can hear his voice in Tezeta, and the microtones come back in The Book. Their fourth album Polygondwanaland is completely free and has been released under an open source license. You can download the torrent on their website in the bootlegger section and it's 100% legal. This is the band's closest to progressive rock album, and it features the search for the fourth color, with tetrachromacy. On the vinyl record at the end, Han Tyumi says, "Hello". Their fifth album released this year is another miscellaneous album, but most of it is consistent, with the exception of two key songs. Most of the album is more poppy stuff, but Greenhouse Heat Death is a somewhat heavy microtonal song, and The Great Chain of Being is revealed to be their first heavy metal song. This album is Gumboot Soup, and it was released on December 31, 2017. When that album released, the band was announcing they were going to take a break for a year. I almost forgot to mention in 2017 they started writing another album, but it wouldn't be released until 2022.
