Gotye: Making Mirrors

Date
12/06/2011

In case you’ve managed to escape the ongoing internet buzz of Australian artist Gotye’s (pronounced go-tee-yay) song “Somebody That I Used to Know,” featuring Kimbra, (umm, and managed to escape all of your friends’ covers of said song), then let me be the first to apologize— this song is definitely going to get stuck in your head. You may go so far as buying a used ice cream truck and parking it on your lawn, just so the bell-sirens can give your ears something new to latch onto. Yep, this one is catchy. It will become a part of your brain, whether you like it or not. But, you probably (definitely) will.

His new album Making Mirrors will be released on December 6, 2011.
