My pick is She Comes From Nowhere. Although I enjoy the official cover I love this photo from its promotion - the reds and browns and all are just so pleasing a colour scheme. (this for a hypothetical deluxe issue 🙂↕️)
Honourable mention to Bad Baby - except its particular orangish red has greatly grown on me.
I only got around to checking out the first album, Soft Swerve, through Bandcamp recently, as it seems to not be available anywhere else. I thought it was... challenging. That is a kinder way of saying terrible. BUT the ironic enjoyment was off the charts because several songs are just hilarious, and with the very obvious M.I.A., Ke$ha and general late 00s pop influence, I found it impossible to truly hate.
Have you taken the time to listen yet? What do you think? If not, do, as I believe every lightly masochistic Gemmy fan should...
i nominate ninajirachi! their styles are certainly different but given her branching into collabs with several electronic artists, this would be a collab i do fantasize about
All I want to do is love everyone!
Recently I began crossing the Saint Etienne (british dance band) discography off my list and was struck by the similarities between much of albums like Good Humor and Lindsey's work. Come to find out she specifically confirmed them as a kind of inspiration in her youtube comments! Any other artists you all enjoy with an unexpected similar sound to Gemmy?
Better yet, do you have a favourite from each album? In my case, I would likely have to pick:
- Forget Your Future: Ghost World, with True Blue a close second
- Body Work: No Rum
- Bad Baby: Skydiver, with the title track a very close second
- CBD R.M.: Euphoria, with Twisted and Seeing Stars both honourable mentions
- She Comes From Nowhere: every single song! But in truth, Polly Pocket with High Fashion Slags, Who Wanted, and Doll all so adored by me
So, what are your picks :>
as there is no current active subreddit dedicated to her works, i have just created r/NeggyGemmy so there can be a home for it! please do go join and post if you are interested, it is small but i would adore it to be a thriving community!
Hello to all! I intend this subreddit to be a home for discussion of her discography and general works. I decided to create this given that r/negativegemini is not just completely barren, but also outdated given the rebranding. I am personally a Gemmy superfan and all around 100% Electronica enjoyer and I hope this subreddit can flourish.
Please do create a post, assign yourself one of the flairs, or just say hi below! Thank you for reading.
i challenge someone to beat this one. ignoring him facing the complete wrong way, it is also obviously from 2020 or so given the smartphone and covid mask. i hope it never changes, i love it
