In news that will thrill fans, The Jesus Lizard have announced 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 globe. 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, marks a powerful new chapter for The Jesus Lizard. Their influence on underground and alternative music remains undeniable, and Rack is a bold reaffirmation of their uncompromising sound.
Teeming with the kind of madness needed to beat down today’s AOR mediocrity and piss-perfect pop drivel, Rack delivers relentless energy and razor-sharp musicianship across 11 tracks. The album has already garnered widespread acclaim from critics and fans alike, cementing The Jesus Lizard’s legacy—and future.
