AUSTRALIAN GEMS 2019 [#24]: Elizabeth – The Wonderful World of Nature
It seems that breakdowns no matter what they're underlying work out as some kind of optimum triggers to creative endeavors. That's what presumably happened with the immensely talented and former Totally Mild singer-songwriter Elizabeth Mitchell. The aftermath of Totally Mild superb second album, "Her" brought with it their unsurprisingly split-up due to some private matters and raised the usual question of what would the band members be doing from then on.
On what concerns to Elizabeth she promptly focused on her career and managed to release a fantastic, solo debut album titled "The Wonderful World of Nature" but it could also be pompously named as the wonderful world of australian velvet dream pop. Elizabeth's debut album is a deliberate and beautiful exercise of melancholic grandeur filled with a notable sense of melodic construction that finds some parallel with Beach House ambient not with Lana Del Rey tedious, plastic, pop.
The Wonderful World of Nature is a highly balanced and cohesive album that spontaneously grabs the listener's attention. Song after song from opening to closing the album fully displays a handful of brilliantly crafted songs that makes this album a truly serious contender to Australia's Album of The Year.
INDIEVOTION SCORE: 9/10
