The Garden

风格：Gothic Rock 成员：Wyatt shears Fletcher shears （两人是孪生兄弟） 于2011年出道。 Wyatt shears & Fletcher shears/The Garden Twin → Wyatt shears & Fletcher shears;The Garden Twins There are more than one Artist/Band with this Name: I) A bass and drums punk duo from Orange, California II) A Collaboration Between David Tagg & Hakobune Discography: In Sea-Land (2011/Install) Bio: It isn’t often that collaborative projects bear such bountiful fruit right from the start of their conception, but sometimes, nature seems to have another motive in mind, and we’re given a very special and very unique result. Hailing from near-opposite sides of the globe, David Tagg and Takahiro Yorifuji (also known here at Install and elsewhere as Hakobune) decided to combine their complementary approaches to ambient guitar music and make something new together. The Garden – In Sea-Land, certainly conjures images of organic growth in a surreal landscape, and the album colors in the empty spaces with watery blue melodies submerged in ocean water and triumphant overarching towers of weathered stone drones surrounded by sea spray and thin clouds. Both similar to what David and Takahiro have individually created before, and also unique to itself, these two men have found an alchemical assurance in combining their crafts with The Garden. Sure to please fans of either musician’s work, or anyone who appreciates gentle guitars unspooled over a canvas of water and green. Deep and lush, alive and vibrant. A multifaceted pleasurable listen for the hot Summer months. by Last.fm The Dos Equis guy has a cool accent and a virile beard and all, but Fletcher and Wyatt Shears, the 19-year-old twin brothers who make music as The Garden, definitely give him a run for his money in the “most intriguing men on the planet” department. They look cool, have impeccable bone structure—which Fletcher often highlights with make-up—and they’re apparently really good at hockey. Oh yeah, they’ve also been making pretty great lo-fi, gothy garage-punk since 2011. These days they’re part of the Burger Records family, whose roster includes Black Lips, Ty Segall and the Cosmonauts. What’s even crazier than the fact that they’re identical twins, which is really nuts when you really think about it, is that earlier this year they were handpicked by designer Hedi Slimane and whisked off to Paris to walk in the Saint Laurent AW13 menswear show. I caught up with the twins in the garden (of course) of their idyllic childhood home.
