WILD NOTHING

Wild Nothing is one of my favourite current dreamy pop bands. Psychedelic artist Eric Shaw teamed up to create the video for the band's latest surprisingly funky song, "A Dancing Shell." Check out the video I think its cleverly made. In the video, humanoids made out of colorful geometric shapes walk along landscapes of squiggles and star-burst spirals. Really interesting colors, shapes and patterns, I have always found psychedelic footage a great modern representation of pop art.The song "A Dancing Shell" appears on the band's upcoming "Empty Estate" EP, which is out via Captured Tracks.

Wild Nothing is an American Indie Rock/Dream Pop band from Blacksburg, Virginia. They formed back in 2009 by Jack Tatum. Nathan Goodman(guitar), Jeff Haley(bass), Kevin Knight(keyboards), and Jeremiah Johnson(drums). They have brought out 2 albums "Gemini" 2010, and "Nocturne" 2012, which are superb and most original. Wild Nothing's first single, "Summer Holiday", was released on Captured Tracks in 2009, and was followed by "Cloudbusting". Their albums, EP'S, and singles have been well received critically, and have been dubbed "Best New Music" by 'Pitchfork Media'. "Empty Space" has been released this month, and is shaping up to be another successful EP, a further testament to the bands creative ability. In the last post, I introduced 'Tame Impala', who like this band lean towards a dreamy state of music. No doubt 'Wild Nothing' are different to the Australian band, but having said this, both of these bands nevertheless subscribe to an interesting type of musical theme.

Tame Impala is a band from Perth, Australia. They formed in 2007, and consists of Kevin Parker, Dominic Simper, Jay Watson,Nick Allbrook, and Julien Barbagallo. They are a terrific Australian band, and play in a 'steady flowing psychedelic groove rock style', that usually emphasizes a 'dream-like melody'. In July 2008 the band signed a worldwide deal with independent label 'Modular Recordings'.

In December 2010 they released this song called 'Expectation', have a look at the video.It is well worth appreciating their eclectic sound, and the expertise of the bands main writer Kevin Parker. They have recorded three albums. 'Innerspeaker' released in May 2010, 'Lonerism' released in October 2012, and 'Live at the Corner' in May 2010, all with Modular Recordings. Well worth seeing live, and certainly I will be making my way down there to see them, when they come to Melbourne again.
