Artist Biography
True to their garage-blues roots, the Murlocs play with a straightforward swagger, but also show an eager willingness to mix up styles and influences with each record they release. Made up of members of King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard and ORB, among others, the band started off making stripped-down rock & roll on their 2014 debut Loopholes. Future albums found them stretching the limits of garage, adding production polish on 2017's Old Locomotive, and by the time of 2021's Bittersweet Demons, crafting a piano-led set of melancholy and introspective rockers. Their ability to mix and match genres while staying true to their core remained firmly in place on 2022's Rapscallion, which found them successfully grafting on heavy metal and post-punk influences, and 2023's Calm Ya Farm, which leaned into country and classic rock in a loose and relaxed fashion.
