Product Description

Product Description

Take two and a half years, four share-houses, 757 op-shop records, a few thousand dollars lost to dodgy housemates, 2565 hours of community library customer service, 20,000 km of round-Australia travel, countless computer crashes and one critical hard-disk failure, and you have a rough diary for the recording process of the new record by Gotye (pronounced 'gore-ti-yeah'). All sounds on the album were collected and assembled or performed by Wally De Backer in bedrooms around Melbourne between 2003 and 2005, and the record was mixed and mastered by Franc Tetaz (Wolf Creek soundtrack, Machine Translations, Architecture in Helsinki) giving it a beautiful hi-fi depth and brilliance that goes beyond Wally's lo-fi gem Boardface (2004). Musically, it's another mixed bag with a subtle thread holding it all together- alt-pop with a broad sonic and thematic palette. Lucky Number. 2008.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you loved Making Mirrors... April 4 2012
By gOtYeCaT
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Gotye's eclectic mixture of pop, electronic, reggae, jazz, etc., will leave you breathless, but satisfied at the end of it. His heart-tugging 'Heart's a Mess' will leave you wanting to hear more of his 'desperate to connect' angst. His playful, yet true 'Thanks For Your Time' is just catchy and fun. The dark, obsessive "The Only Thing I Know" is stunning lyrically. All 11 songs on this CD are amazing works of art.

If you were captured by Wally de Backer's talent on Making Mirrors, you will indeed enjoy his earlier work, Like Drawing Blood.

Excellant album! Très bonne musique et je le recommanderais à ceux qui aime le style Peter Gabriel. Composition des textes très recherchée et poétique.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Making Mirrors Aug 9 2012
By Isis416
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Don't get me wrong, both Albums are fantastic. But I honestly think that with songs like 'Hearts a Mess', 'The Only Way' and 'Coming Back' how can you compare them? As seen on this album Gotye was long deserving of recognition before 'Somebody I Used to Know' hit the airways.
