Yeah, when Innerspeaker came out earlier this year it kind of threw me into a 60s psychedelic throw back. Pulled out my copy of Revolver and Surrealistic Pillow and started getting into Brian Jonestown Massacre's psych stuff, particularly Satanic Majesties' Second Request.

But yeah, Tame Impala is excellent. Their vocals are really good, the voice kind of reminds me of Lennon, but not a carbon-copy like some people I talk to like to suggest. Earlier today I bought the EP they released before Innerspeaker and was pleasantly surprised by the songs I wasn't familiar with, they also go for a more lo-fi sound in the EP which is interesting. I'm glad they didn't stick with that sound for Innerspeaker though, I don't think it would've worked out as well.

Looking forward to seeing them when they come to LA this December.
