The prolific Australian psych-weirdos return with their seventh album in four years (and their first for ATO Records), an experiment in acoustic instruments and breezy melodies that marks a shift from their trademark face-melting psych. Recorded in a shipping container on a farm in Australia, Paper Mache Dream Balloon is a lovely, lilting pop masterpiece that evokes the same intoxicating exuberance as KGATLW’s most recent work, but with a more pastoral, communal feel to it.

“Their songs are dense, intricately crafted, and most importantly, powerful. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard don’t do predictability.” - Pitchfork
