UMUR
"Teenage Gizzard" is a compilation album by Australian, Melbourne based experimental music act King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. The compilation was independently released in December 2020. It features 10 tracks and a total playing time of 29:17 minutes. All tracks are culled from the earliest releases by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. All material from Their two 2010 singles, the material from the 2011 "Anglesea" EP, the non-album single track "Trench Foot", and the previously unreleased song "Life is Cool".

All tracks are stylistically psychedelic/garage/surf rock featuring a great energy and rock swagger, but also a relatively lo-fi rehearsal room sound production, which is authentic and provides the material with a raw live energy but also makes it all sound a bit chaotic and simple. The idea to release these rare early recordings is still a good one though, but just be aware that King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have evolved a lot since these early recordings. A 2.5 star (50%) rating is warranted.
