  1. 9.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    There may be reference points aplenty throughout Nonagon Infinity and its creators make-up but King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard sure know how to put their own spin on things. And in doing so have created their finest body of work to date

  2. 8.5 |   Beardfood

    This is one big trip. The energetic psych garage heroes of today are at their playful peak

  3. 8.2 |   AU Review

    Instrumentation, production, and writing are excellent throughout, culminating in the Melbourne outfit’s best record to date

  4. 8.0 |   NME

    If Tame Impala-offshoot Pond forgot to take their Ritalin, they’d probably end up making something like this

  5. 8.0 |   Pitchfork

    Besides being a killer garage rock album, Nonagon Infinity is constructed as an infinite loop, meaning its final notes connect perfectly with the album’s opening

  6. 8.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Nonagon Infinity’s sound is bordering on the extraterrestrial - it sounds like they’ve given kautrock an intense, life-threatening electric shock

  7. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    There is a sense of urgency to this latest offering, as if last year’s fey and breezy LP Paper Mâché Dream Balloon acted as a process of blissed-out creative rehab

  8. 8.0 |   The Music

    Don't be surprised if this is the one they're remembered for

  9. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    A whirling dervish of an album, and a culmination of all their previous hard work, Nonagon Infinity is the sound of a band at their wigged out best

  10. 8.0 |   Q

    It’s seamless, silly, but seriously good stuff. Print edition only

  11. 8.0 |   Exclaim

    In a word, bonkers. Maddening. Certifiably loopy

  12. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Four albums in 18 months might induce a malaise within lesser bands, but King Gizzard's current purple patch peaks here. Print edition only

  13. 8.0 |   Uncut

    A hyper-detailed punk opera that few of their peers have matched for intensity, ambition or sheer derangement. Print edition only

  14. 8.0 |   All Music

    King Gizzard's inventive sound, giant hooks, and hard-as-titanium playing make Nonagon Infinity not only their best album yet, but maybe the best psych-metal-jazz-prog album ever

  15. 8.0 |   Gig Soup

    King Gizzard's psychedelic trigonometry rips a guitar-shaped hole in the time-space continuum
    Read Review

  16. 7.0 |   No Ripcord

    It comes across as one big slab of raucous, careening psychedelia
    Read Review

  17. 6.0 |   State

    Nonagon Infinity is more than enjoyable, maybe not immediately, and it definitely does require persistence, but it is worth your time
