- The Gotye Appreciation Thread -
The Australian - Belgian musician from daaaahn dundah is set to make a massive impact out of the Indie Scene into mainstream music with Somebody I Used To Know.
And his third album Making Mirrors is set to be one of THE albums of 2012 (released in some international countries later last year however). I have been wary of his stuff the past few months and was really refreshed to hear that he was impacting the radios so much to actually get himself into the top 10 charts here! So he deserves his own thread for discussing his style, his music and videos and performances. And also who else will be getting his new album! available here - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Making-Mirro...=pd_sim_m_h__1 have a listen to the samples to "get" his overall scope in styles...just now pre-ordered and cannot wait to own this album. So yeah lets discuss, embrace, debate etc

![]() I do really like Somebody That I Used To Know ![]() Wanna join this bandwagon? ![]() And yeah i was surprised! But his first albums is an EP i think, and his second is more Indie by what i heard of it but this new one is him stretching out his sounds a bit more. You can hear the Aborigine/Belgian in it

![]() I guess it's a classic 'marmite' track? What else would you recommend if that's all I know him for?

By the far the best single to come out in the last couple of years though I know people who hate it.
