    What would a vinyl release of King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard's 2017 single 'Crumbling Castle' have looked like?

    Through the King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard Official Bootlegger initiative, we have brought that to reality.

    The aim of this product is to seamlessly integrate it into the discography of the band. This includes the font, typography, logos, insignia, (and Flightloss branding). The idea being to mimic a King Gizzard release as closely as possible, down to the finest detail.

    To bring this vision to life, Lewy Jones (@lewyjones on IG & /u/lewjrew on Reddit) went above and beyond in designing the entire package. Lewy’s style and appreciation for the Gizzverse is proudly on display in the overarching themes and fine details of his work.

    Collaborating on this bootlegger album art, I wanted to incorporate influences from past King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard album artworks which feature the crumbling castle and mountains motif. Following this direction I collaged elements from the bootlegger Polygondwanaland Asset pack provided by the band and Jason Galea, to paint a representation of two opposing ‘crumbling castles’. The green and red colour scheme symbolises a duality of the two sides of the Record and is reminiscent of the lo fi digital colours of the ‘crumbling castle’ music video. - Lewy

    The product:

    - Lathe-cut run of 10" vinyl pressed at Phonolab, Newcastle, Au.
    - Each record is cut individually, using high-quality German cutting lathes.
    - Double-coloured vinyl - one side is green, one side is red.
    - Limited run of 33.
    - AUD$45ea
    - Records have arrived and are ready to ship.
    - 1 vinyl per person.
    - 2 put aside for Gizz

Meet me glassy eyed, blind, and divine Under a void on the ghost land The castle is a pimple on the face of the world The embers burned for ghouls to tread if you'd please try I see through the bricks, to the sea, crumbling castle Water's rising up, thick and green, crumbling castle Inching closer each century, crumbling castle Are we safe in our citadel? Look upon our condition, crumbling castle You would not believe where I'm from, crumbling castle We pray for the death, that does not come, crumbling castle Dug all of our holes in God's Acre, crumbling castle We have even said our last rites, crumbling castle Are we safe in our holding cell? Look upon our condition, crumbling castle We head to our extinction, crumbling castle The sounds of the constant lightning Would be enough to block out the Fall of the end of the world If it were not for our tinnitus from the bomb In the wind I sway, back and forth I'm brittle as an aged human being When my walls are safe from world weather The build forms into great nastiness Polygondwanaland I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle I don't want to fall into dust I don't want nothing but to live on The ache inside my keep spurs me on I don't want to be visible Polygondwanaland I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle On this very day, in one thousand Years the earth will be relative to the Sun and the moon and a new world will be Created, I know because it is written here I see through the bricks to the sea, crumbling castle Inching closer each century, crumbling castle Water's rising up, thick and green, crumbling castle Are we safe in our citadel? Look upon our condition, crumbling castle You would not believe where I'm from, crumbling castle I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle Don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle Don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle Don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle
