Although the festival itself would be canceled due to severe weather, since King Gizzard had already traveled to Austin they decided to press ahead with the show at a venue named the Barracuda, and perform anyways. King Gizzard mostly performed songs from the still unreleased Nonagon Infinity as part of a build up towards the albums release.Release
The album would also be released for free on as part of the band's official Bootlegger program. As such, the album was released by various labels around the world, including The Reverberation Appreciation Society, who also operates the Levitation festival. Upon its release, the magazine Tinnitist noted that the band was "firing on all cylniders."Personnel
