And it was the most boring album I've bought in a long, long time. There wasn't a single song that stood out at all. There were maybe a couple that had some potential, but their execution was very lacking.

Waste of $$.

I peaked on acid to Lonerism once staring into my lovers eyes

It was a journey

Tame Impala has been, alongside MGMT and King Gizzard, among the artists that kept me excited the most throughout the 2010s. I also liked The Slow Rush, which is the latest Tame Impala album, I still prefer Lonerism and Currents to it but it's still a solid album.

I sow him live in Lyon 4 or 5 years ago. I'm less fan now.

Here's a cover of Mind Mischief I discovered some years ago that's honestly as good, if not better, than the original. Renditions like this are one reason I think Kevin Parker should do an acoustic album sometime.

That's pretty neat, but to call it as good as or even better than the original is pure blasphemy sir!

Interesting. You might be right, I don't think it's really the quality of their material, especially the last few albums where they veered more into pure pop. I guess you have to really work on promoting your stuff and he doesn't seem like a Chris Martin or The Weeknd.
