WILD NOTHING - GEMINI (LTD. TRANSLUCENT SEA
BLUE VINYL)
Pressed in a limited edition of 1000, the 10th
Anniversary Edition of Wild Nothing's seminal
release Gemini is pressed on Translucent Sea Blue
Vinyl and housed in a silk-screened, hand-stamped
LP Jacket that mimics the very first edition of its
release.
Songwriter Jack Tatum makes music as Wild Nothing and sounds
about as removed from his home of Blacksburg, Va., as one could
imagine. Like a blend of Cocteau Twins and Atlas Sound, the
songs on his breakthrough full-length debut, Gemini, are willowy
and ethereal, but tethered to a sturdy and sinewy backbone.
"Chinatown" waltzes through a timeless, misty tableaux of wispy
vocals and plucky guitars, with a wonderfully faint
verse/chorus/verse skeleton, while tracks like the fantastically
sticky "Summer Holiday" and "Our Composition Book" have a
jangly melancholy the evokes Johnny Marr and The Smiths.
Tatum uses his charmingly imperfect falsetto on "Confirmation,"
darting in and out of hazy keyboards and shyly bubbling guitar
and bass lines. His voice takes on a darker, flatter intonation on
songs like the murky "Pessimist" and the bittersweet "Live in
Dreams." Gemini is a beautiful, aural space that's perfect for
getting lost in.
