Customer Reviews

A golden haze, indeed.

Mr. Jack Tatum, leader and primary member of indie-pop newcomers Wild Nothing, has really outdone himself this year. It has only been eight short months since the release of Tatum’s first full-length project, Gemini, which was an outstanding creation in itself. And now, Tatum is already back on the scene with a follow-up EP, entitled Golden Haze.

Go ahead and start to mentally visualize that picture; the shoegaze glaze of Gemini, sepiaed into a dewy-eyed, mid-tempo sonic exploration. Now you’re starting to get the picture.

The airy bliss of fifth track “Asleep” rightly epitomizes these wistful lamentations that Tatum so naturally and eagerly expresses in his languishing lyrics (“And if I could climb up to heaven / I’d break in through your window / Take the curtains out from your bedroom / And wrap myself up in them…”). Even the enthusiastic guitar note strands of second-track “Quiet Hours” retain a bittersweet sentiment, and are later followed and strengthened by a striking, fluttery, synth counterpart.

Notable still are the first-rate arrangements pillaring the album throughout— Tickling synths here, muddy guitars there; impeccably fitting drumming all around. A-side track “Take Me In” exemplifies these masterful traits in a most unorthodox and ultimately entrancing manner with its sway-making bass, tip-tapping crashes, and shrewd guitar squawks.

Objectively, Golden Haze is a winsome, distinctive entity, worthy of considerable praise, even apart from its predecessor. As it rivals the quality of Gemini, so does it qualify for a “best of the year” nominee. Trust me, this is a haze that you want to be voluntarily buried in.

only problem i have with this ep deal is that it aint long enough.
Golden Haze is about 25 minutes too short and Your Rabbit Feet is nothing short of an ear massage.

pure bliss Jackie keep on keepin on.

Biography

Formed: 2009

Genre: Alternative

Years Active: '10s

Jack Tatum, formerly of Jack and the Whale and Facepaint, began making his shimmery, synth-washed indie pop recordings under the name Wild Nothing in the summer of 2009. Emerging at a time when a handful of C-86-esque groups (e.g. Crystal Stilts, the Pains of Being Pure at Heart) were in vogue, Tatum's project garnered a bit of buzz with a synthy, glimmering cover of Kate Bush's "Cloudbusting." Captured Tracks picked up Wild Nothing soon after the project's first demos came out, and it wasn't long...
