Long before the microtonal experiments and thrash-metal detours, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard made 12 Bar Bruise, the scrappy, sweat-soaked 2012 debut that started it all, back here as a reissue.

The Melbourne seven-piece recorded it themselves, and that homemade spirit is a big part of the charm. Stu Mackenzie wrote almost every song, and Paul Maybury helped the band record and mix in whatever spaces they could find. The title track is the famous example: four iPhones placed around a room, with Mackenzie singing into one of them. It sounds about as wild as that suggests, and it works.

Elbow kicks the door in at full tilt, all fuzz and urgency, and Bloody Ripper, the album's first single, is a short, wiry burst of garage-punk adrenaline. Sam Cherry's Last Shot brings in Broderick Smith's spoken word for a dusty, cinematic detour, a hint of the western storytelling that would shape their next record, Eyes Like The Sky.

Twelve songs fly past in a little over half an hour, and the record barely stops for breath. It is loud, cheeky and slightly unhinged in the best possible way, which is exactly why fans keep returning to it.

For anyone working backwards through one of rock's most sprawling catalogues, this is where the story begins.
