I'm in Your Mind Fuzz

I'm in Your Mind Fuzz was King Gizzard's first release with Heavenly Records and Castle Face Records, serving as their worldwide debut as prior albums had only been released domestically by Flightless at that point.{{Cite web |date=2014-09-02 |title=King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard – "Cellophane" (Stereogum Premiere) |url=https://www.stereogum.com/1702345/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-cellophane-stereogum-premiere/news/ |access-date=2022-06-18 |website=Stereogum |language=en |archive-date=11 April 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230411032406/https://www.stereogum.com/1702345/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-cellophane-stereogum-premiere/news/ |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |date=2015-07-12 |title=King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard review – weird warriors wig out |url=http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/jul/12/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-review-weird-warriors-wig-out |access-date=2022-06-18 |website=the Guardian |language=en |archive-date=4 June 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230604020632/https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/jul/12/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-review-weird-warriors-wig-out |url-status=live }} The band released the track "Cellophane" on SoundCloud as the lead single on 14 September 2014, followed by a 3D music video for the song two days later. On 6 November, a week after the album had released in Australia, the band released a music video for the song "Satan Speeds Up".

The album cover by Jason Galea was inspired by the cover art for the 1983 Atari 8-bit computer game Fortress, which was originally designed by Louis Seakow and which Galea repainted for the album.{{cite web |last1=Fitzgerald |first1=Riley |title=King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard Artist Jason Galea Reveals Inspiration For 'Mind Fuzz' Cover |url=https://cosmicmagazine.com.au/news/king-gizzard-and-the-lizard-wizard-artist-jason-galea-reveals-inspiration-for-mind-fuzz-album-cover/ |website=Cosmic Magazine |access-date=26 September 2024}} Galea had sought to credit the original artist when the album was originally released, but could only find a credit for the company Image Creations. Galea discovered Seakow's identity in 2019 and contacted him, after which a credit to Seakow was added to future pressings of I'm In Your Mind Fuzz.
