    Not their strongest effort yet, but not their weakest either. Never been crazy about their grab-bag albums, and I wish this had a more cohesive sound, but there’s a bunch of good individual tracks on here.

    Fantastic and hypnotic album with every track. The first audition takes you by surprise in some parts. Too good! This album is a gift. Another one of those guys.

    I wouldn't call this album bad by any means, but similar to "Gumboot soup", there is a little something for everyone.

    Most of these tracks are obvious B-Sides to their previous batch of albums, just like they did on "Gumboot soup". Personally, I would have removed the rap tracks from this record and it would have been an 8.

    Omnium Gatherum proves King Gizzard still have a whole lot of it left in the tank.

    Taken as a complete album experience, it’s a little too all over the place to measure up to their most focused work, and its robust length is pretty intimidating. But as a smorgasbord of strange sonic shape-shifting, it’s a pretty fun listen.

    Like a lot of the bands that inspired it, Omnium Gatherum is expansive, assorted, and at least a little self-indulgent, but that’s precisely what makes it brilliant.
