King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard are not slowing down. The prolific Australian band has announced its 29th studio album, Entropy, due December 4, 2026, on its own p(doom) Records label, along with two legs of North American touring in August and October 2027. The announcement arrived with the album’s lead single, “Rogue Wave,” giving fans a first taste of a record that follows the band’s August 2026 electronic LP, Alien Metal.

Entropy and Its Companion

Entropy is a companion piece to Alien Metal, which came out on August 14th. Both records grew out of the same extended improvisation sessions built around the band’s massive Eurorack modular synthesizer rig, affectionately nicknamed Nathan, and Entropy includes material from those sessions. The band first planned to release the two albums together before deciding to present them as standalone records. The difference is in the mood. Alien Metal carried a grungier tone at 143 beats per minute in the key of F sharp, while Entropy is faster, brighter, and more cosmic, clocked at a steady 160 beats per minute in the key of A. Stu Mackenzie has described it as prettier, more harmonic, and more cosmic than its predecessor.

The eight track album opens with “Aeon” and moves through “Heaven and Hell,” “Hard Sync,” “Rogue Wave,” “Angel,” “To Mercury,” and “Face of the Earth” before closing with the title track, “Entropy.”

The 2027 North American Tour

After a limited run of seven United States shows in 2026, the band will return to North America in 2027 with an August summer leg and an October fall leg. The August dates begin with two nights at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles on the 5th and 6th, then move through San Diego, Flagstaff, and Santa Fe before the band heads up the West Coast to the Cow Palace in Daly City, Portland, and The Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, Washington. The leg continues across Western Canada, with stops in Vancouver, Calgary, Saskatoon, and Winnipeg, and closes at The Armory in Minneapolis on August 27th.

The October leg opens in Texas with Dallas on the 6th and Austin on the 7th, then goes through the South and Appalachia with New Orleans, Atlanta, the above ground amphitheater at The Caverns in Tennessee, and Asheville. It then turns north to Montreal, Toronto, Cleveland, and a finale at the Wintrust Arena in Chicago on October 22nd. The band also has a run of European dates planned for June 2027, including Primavera Sound in Barcelona and two nights at the Eventim Apollo in London.
