Gotye UK Release Details

This blog took an intentional hiatus from posting any Gotye related news owing to its reluctance to be confused with some kind of raving fan blog.
Anyway, I’ve been in contact with Lucky Number Music over in the UK about their plans for the release of Wally’s material in Europe. There have been many rumours about new tracklists, EPs and singles but no concrete data that I’ve seen yet, so here’s the deal.
Hearts a Mess (7″ / download)
Will be released 26th May 2008.
Some new remixes have been commissioned which will back up the release. Here’s the tracklist:
- Hearts a Mess (radio edit)
- Hearts a Mess (Lull edit) – download
- Hearts a Mess (Ocelot remix) – download
(released on digital download only)
Learnalilgivinanlovin (7″ / download)
This will be the second single in the UK and will see release on the 11th August 2008
Tracklist unknown
Like Drawing Blood (album)
Formats will include CD, vinyl and digital download
Release dates:
- UK: 19th August, 2008
- Japan: 23rd July, 2008
- Belgium: 23rd May, 2008
- Rest of Europe TBC
Interestingly, the tracklist is changed slightly (subject to change, etc)
- Like Drawing Blood
- The Only Way
- Hearts a Mess
- Coming Back
- Thanks for Your Time
- Learnalilgivinanlovin
- Puzzle With a Piece Missing
- The Only Thing I Know (new mix, track originally from Boardface)
- Seven Hours With a Backseat Driver
- Night Drive
- Worn Out Blues
Yes, that’s right: A Distinctive Sound will not be on the album.
That’s not too surprising about DS, reviews tended to see it as an odd one out, despite Wally trying to emulate some sort of Frontier Psychiatrist vibe.
