They’re such a fan of the cold that they consider themselves a “polar bear in denial” and head for the coldest continent on planet Earth (side note: polar bears live in the Arctic, not Antarctica, and the band mentioned this factual error on 2024-09-09). Their trip starts out fine as the song’s narrator says that it feels like a new home, but it goes sideways when their plane crashes into the tundra. Leaving the aircraft, they end up freezing to death.: https://kglw.net/song/antarctica/about?artist_id=1\n\nHere's King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard performing Live on KEXP in 2022: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb8UMmrBlC8\n\nhttps://kinggizzardandthelizardwizard.com/\nhttps://kinggizzard.bandcamp.com/","location":1,"location_name":"Default","play_type":"trackplay"}
