raucous record that recaptures the lunging momentum, stealth nuance and unhinged Yow-isms of their best work”

“…as delightfully gnarly as they have ever been, and just as lively as all of the younger bands that have come in their wake”

In news that will thrill fans, The Jesus Lizard announce their return to Australia for the first time since 1994.
Since their inception in Austin in 1987, the Jesus Lizard has thrilled audiences all over the planet. The impeccable rocket-thrust rhythm section of bassist David Wm. Sims and drummer Mac McNeilly was the perfect launchpad for guitarist Duane Denison’s jagged yet clean-toned riffing and vocalist David Yow’s mercurial vocalisations manifesting as everything from panicked citizen, reality escapee or wounded sea mammal.
The 2024 release of their seventh studio LP, ‘Rack’ marked a new chapter for the Jesus Lizard, whose influence on music remains undeniable. They have returned with a record teeming with the kind of madness needed to beat down today’s AOR mediocrity and piss-perfect pop drivel. With its relentless energy and razor-sharp musicianship, the 11-track album has garnered widespread acclaim from critics and fans alike.
