“Lava” begins with a free-jazz freak-out before slowing way down, with piano, flute, and spacey guitars floating above a tribal beat. From there each track touches on various styles where improvisation and groove are key: “Ice V” brings in some funk and jazz, followed up by “Magma,” a track that almost sounds like Jerry Garcia joined a Bollywood psych-funk outfit. “Mycelium” kicks things off with a groovy psychedelic vibe, interweaving guitar lines and organ backed by a bouncy beat-imagine one of the peppier tracks from Butterfly 3000, but based around dueling guitars and stretched out to over seven minutes, and you get the basic idea. Even though each track does have a “jam session” feel, these songs actually go places, exploring different nooks and crannies of the main riff or chord progression before returning back to the collective groove.Įach of the seven tracks has its own unique feel, and while the shortest one is over six minutes long, they don’t overstay their welcome. With some bands that might be a recipe for disaster, but with a group of musicians as talented as King Gizzard you know the results will be interesting at the very least. Over the course of the album, you get the sense that these songs were built up from the band getting together in the same room and seeing what happened. It’s described by the band as “built around the 7 Greek modes,” “collaborative” and “jammy,” and even though my knowledge of music theory is too rusty to comment on that first claim, the songs definitely reflect the latter two. Clocking in at seven tracks and just over an hour, it’s also the longest of the three, and will be spread over four sides when it comes to vinyl. The Australian psych-prog song factory has announced three new albums coming out in quick succession this month, and Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava is just the first of these to emerge from the Gizzverse. This is not the only King Gizzard review you’ll read on TFN in October. Just make sure you opt for non-drowsy options during the day.Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms And Lava Antihistamines, like Benadryl or Zyrtec, can also help relieve an itchy sunburn. In this case, taking an OTC medication like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help quell itchiness, as well as pain. Reach for OTC medicationsīecause itchiness can increase as your skin heals, topical treatments may not always be enough to find relief. Avoid products that contain benzocaine or other ingredients ending in ‘-caine,’ as they can be irritating, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Apply hydrocortisone creamĪpplying an over-the-counter topical steroid, like 1 percent hydrocortisone cream, can help reduce inflammation, soothing an itchy sunburn in the process, says Dr. Simply apply your body lotion, like CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion, to damp skin after soaking in a cool bath for 10 to 20 minutes to lock moisture into the skin. Then, try the “soak and smear” technique, says Jules Lipoff, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and assistant professor of clinical dermatology at University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine. Use gentle moisturizersĭr Chipps recommends slathering your skin in bland, fragrance-free moisturizers that contain hydrating and calming ingredients, like ceramides, oat extract, aloe vera, and vitamin E (as long as you have no known allergies or sensitivities to them.) Avoid pretoleum- or oil-based products, as they can trap heat into the skin. Your itchy sunburn should subside as soon as the skin heals, and there are a few things you can do to speed up the process. While scratching an itchy sunburn feels good in the moment, it only increases inflammation and damages the skin even further, which worsens the itch, says Dr. Chipps, some people are more susceptible to a particularly intense post-sunburn itch dubbed as ‘Hell’s itch.’ While it only affects a small percentage of people, the symptoms are described as an uncontrollable, relentless itch that comes in waves within 48 hours after a sunburn, per the Cleveland Clinic.īut the worst thing you can do is give into temptation.
