King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard?

From my twitter:

checking some . Not bad, retro in a cool way. Surprised though I can't find any comparisons to

I will try to check out some albums from them soon. I'm wondering

Pepe Deluxe >> King Gizzard

like

Burst >> Mastodon


but regardless, I am liking some of their music. The vocals though and guitar work are where Pepe differs. At least it got me to revisit Queen of the Wave and remember what a masterpiece it is. We'll see if King Gizzard (KG?..hard time using those 2 letters unless it's myself and Kevin Gilbert..or maybe Kyle Gass/Tenacious D). lives up to even half the hype. I worry their albums may meander or be hit and miss/not so focused. But maybe 1 or 2 of them will work start to finish.
