 Brand new, still sealed copy of King Gizzard's latest vinyl release

Please note I have shamelessly stolen the photos from the groups facebook page, this is the same release... though since they're rainbow splatter pressings you can expect them to all be unique.

Total mint copy without any dinged sleeve corners or other flaws

"Life is full of comparisons, and comparisons are what you can expect when you create an album so purposely devoid of any consistent genre that it results in an emphasis on your potential influences.*

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard’s aptly titled fifth release Oddments does exactly this. Each of the album’s twelve songs differ from each other so drastically that it sounds like a compilation of twelve different bands. It’s at times interesting, at times admirable, and at times other-wordly; but constantly absent of the clear stamp of individuality they displayed in their previous two albums Float Along/Fill Your Lungs and 12 Bar Bruise.* It’s more or less the laboured attempt of seven collective 20-somethings to expel the notion that an album must adhere to one single genre.

So while the peddling of sounds is definitely a redeeming feature of the album, it’s the very theme of ‘theme-less-ness’ that defines Oddments; with the drastic variation between songs ironically pushing the album towards revivalism." review pinched from http://speakertv.com/news/latest-news/analysis-oddments-king-gizzard-lizard-wizard/

More fun garage psych madness without being obnoxious about it, also just for anyone wondering this pressing sounds fantastic - I was a little concerned as always with multi-colour pressings but having played my other copy (and heard a friends)... great pressings. 45rpm pressings typically do though I suppose.
