I listened to GIZMO by Tanukichan. 🎵
I had to scroll back through my added albums to last year to find this again because I couldn’t remember this artist or album name. I only remembered the crunchy fuzzy 90s-altrock/shoegazish vibe and that Toro y Moi produced it and that it came out last year and that it had a dog and barfy slimy green and magenta letters on the cover.
[Listening progression: MAHAL –> Hole Erth preview tracks –> GIZMO (this album.)] When I first read a blurb and saw the art for Toro y Moi’s forthcoming album Hole Erth I imagined that it was going be something like this album. Turns out the tracks that have been released from Hole Erth so far aren’t much like this album at all, but that’s okay.
The final track “Mr. Rain” really matches the weather and mood this evening, dramatic thunderstorms overhead mixed with golden hour sunset lighting under the clouds to the west.
