King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have joined forces with Relix to present Flame Throwers: Volumes Two and Three, the latest installments of the “Bootlegger” vinyl series. King Gizzard’s new entries for the Relix exclusive run capture the unpredictable, undefinable and explosive peaks of the genre-obliterating Australian sextet’s fall 2024 US tour, pressed with unprecedented clarity in eye-popping triple-LP packages.

Flame Throwers: Volume Two comprises eight tracks handpicked by King Gizzard archivist Justin Krim, who combed through the soundboards from the band’s expansive fall 2024 West Coast tour to select the best of the best. Featuring gems like the stomping barn-burner intro “Field of Vision > Raw Feel” (Palo Alto, Calif. – 11/4/24), the motorik, synth-powered kosmische rave up “Set” (San Francisco – 11/6/24) and exceedingly rare acoustic treatments of “Witchcraft > Chang’e” (San Diego – 11/12/24), the six-side collection is limited to 750 copies.

For Flame Throwers: Volume Three, King Gizzard chronicled one of the undeniable highlights of their 2024 touring: the unforgettable November 19 stand at Atlanta’s Fox Theater. In a race through 16 classic cuts–including coveted rarities “Hot Wax,” “Intrasport” and “The Fourth Colour”–the band delivered one of its most adventurous performances to date, scaling from the elaborate, trancelike mind-expansions of “Her and I (Slow Jam 2)” to a blistering, freaked-out finale of “Gilgamesh.” The exclusive full-show recording is limited to 1,119 pressings.

Both of the new “Bootlegger” releases were meticulously mixed and mastered by Jessie Lauter and etched in vibrant 140-gram vinyl by the standard-bearing Third Man Pressing. The tracks are housed in heavy-duty gatefold sleeves adorned with original cover art from Madalyn Stefanak. The limited-edition essentials for die-hard King Gizzard devotees are available to pre-order, only at relix.shop.
