Best psychedelic pop psychedelic rock album of the year
Best Australian album of the year
King Gizzard has offered us another smorgasbord full of delectable treats. Much like Oddments and Gumboot Soup it is a collection of songs in the various genres they have been mucking around with over the years, and even a new one in terms of old school hip hop a la The Beastie Boys. This provides a lot of variety and an album that works both as a listen to front to back, or one that could be shuffled. It may go for an hour and twenty minutes but it doesn't feel that long, especially as my favourite song here (as a fan of their early extended jams period) the opening track The Dripping Tap takes up nearly twenty minutes of that runtime.

@Moondance I am sure there is some good Aussie albums I haven't heard yet. I had a bit of a quieter year in 2022 and didn't get to listen to as many albums as usual but I epect more will be added as time goes on :)

Always a delight to check out your charts and your 'classification' system. Equally nice to see a good percentage of Aussie albums make the cut - personally, I think you should have more Aussie albums: but hey, I'm super-biased.
