There’s been quite a lot said about Gotye lately, a bit too much pfaff to warrant inclusion here. But below is a smattering of press that may be of interest:

* A stint as a librarian may not be the likeliest path towards that of a musician, but it makes for a little light reading

* Inspiration can come out of anywhere and Cara Williams spoke to Wally to find out a bit about some unexpected inspiration that helped launch the Gotye project

* Need some facts about Gotye quickly? Check our Deborah Cooke’s beginner’s guide

* It’s not exactly Revenge of the Nerds as the classic film would have us believe, but it seems that “geek is chic” these days and supposedly it’s Gotye holding the music mantle. Apparently the ARIAs were geek-dominated too

* If you didn’t make it to a show during last year’s tour, you may get an overview of what went on via Lisa Dibs’ great review

Pitchfork media, possibly the largest independent music media website in the US has published a review of Gotye’s Like Drawing Blood. Have a read of it here

MX recently ran a half-page on Gotye. Have a look and find out…um, facts and figures. Wally’s “Mixed Bag” Top 10 tunes, for instance

Wow. Rolling Stone manage to strike out four times in a total of 23 words. That’s gotta be a new journalistic record. Act name, song name, my hometown, and just general spelling/grammar. None are spared.

My attempts to bribe The Brag were successful this year. Those to ensure correct spelling of my name in The Drum were not.
