UMUR
"Anglesea" is the first EP recording by Australian, Melbourne based experimental music act King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. The EP was independently released in May 2011. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard formed in 2010 and released two singles the same year. The title of the EP refers to the name of hometown of lead vocalist/guitarist Stu Mackenzie.

Stylistically the four tracks on "Anglesea" more or less sound like they were recorded at the same sessions as the material found on the two 2010 singles. It´s a similar style of psychedelic/garage/surf rock, played with great energy and skill, and packed in a relatively raw and lo-fi sounding production job. It´s neither the most unique nor the most interesting music in the genre, but like the case was with the preceding single releases, there´s promise here and a 2.5 star (50%) rating is warranted.
