Georgia Gothic, a magic third in Mattiels run of fulllength albums, was shaped in the quiet seclusion of a woodland cabin in the north of the Atlanta duos motherstateSome faraway place that just Jonah and I could go where there would be no distractions, nothing else going on, and we could turn everything off and only focus on writing songs, reflects Brown.Where 2017s selftitled debut and its 2019 followup Satis Factory were written with what Swilley refers to as ahandsoff approach he arranging the music and Brown the lyrics and vocals, the two working largely separately the making of Georgia Gothic was, for the first time, a truly collaborative undertaking.This was the first time we made a point to just be together and work out ideas in the same room. That was the initial intention… it was about learning what each other wanted to accomplish on a sonic level, and then just trying different things out, Swilley continues.Everything happened backwards. Normally, youd have friends that make a band… with us, we started making music from the jump, and then became homies. Cultivated by time spent together on the road touring the first two albums, it is thisnewfound sense of intimacy between Mattiels members that enabled the writing ofGeorgia Gothic not as two separate musicians, but rather as one creative entity. Thealbum remained within the four walls of Brown and Swilleys private world for much of itsevolution with recording taking place in a simple studio set up by the pair in theborrowed room of a dialysis centre, Swilley in the producers seat until, nearingcompletion, it was transferred into the trusted hands of the Grammy awardwinning JohnCongleton whose extensive list of credits includes artists as diverse as Angel Olsen, EarlSweatshirt, Erykah Badu and Sleater Kinney for mixing.Not only does the affinity between its creators translate into an electric synergy betweenGeorgia Gothics words and music the brineshock of Browns taut lyricism cut againstthe bourbonsmoothness of Swilleys instrumentation but here too are the palpablespoils of experimentation, each party trustful enough of the other to trial and error theirpractices into new geometries. Swilley puts this wide palate, in part, down to the placethey call home.I definitely feel like being from Georgia allows us to have a certain way ofapproaching music. Brown chimes inWe havent really highlighted where were from inthe past two records, even though those were also written in Georgia. Theres so muchgreat art and great music thats come from Georgia, from all different types of genres andall over the state but take R.E.M. and OutKast theres this weirdness that I cant reallyput my finger on. Swilley concursIts the same with the B52s, the Black Lips… itdoesnt feel like L.A., it doesnt feel like New York, it feels like another planet. Were notreally in a scene here in the same way.
