A few weeks ago I talked about Gotye's album, "Making Mirrors," and his hit single "Somebody That I Used to Know." Not only do I love the song (and am still listening to it a bunch) I really dig this awesome cover from Walk Off the Earth.
This is such a cool video and cover. It has gotten a lot of hype. I am so impressed with their musicality and the fact that they can create this sound from five people playing on the same instrument.

Today: Something New
Usually I recommend songs, but today I'm recommending a record. I listened to Gotye's new record, "Making Mirrors," after a friend reminded me how much I like his hit single, "Somebody That I Used to Know," featuring Kimbra.
This single is infectious and gets better the more you listen to it. Wally De Backer plays with an awesome blend of simple melodies backed by interesting instrumentation, many times influenced by his Australian sound.
I also like the first single, "Eyes Wide Open," and the fun, "In Your Light," which is more upbeat and raucous compared to the rest of the album.
I definitely recommend giving this entire record a full listen to, from beginning to end.
