Tame Impala - The Slow Rush (February 14, 2020) Album • Page 15

Funny you should mention this. Kevin actually responded to a meme on Instagram regarding wine and his music. Hilarious response IMO.

 

I'll have to give this several listens. On 1st pass, I'm not really feeling it. I don't dislike it, but I don't particularly want to go raving about it either (which is how I expected I'd feel).

 

this album is pretty sick. groovy and unassuming and gorgeous

 

kind of love every track in its own way, which makes the length worth it. shocked people have any issue with "posthumous forgiveness," that shit is incredible

 

This is obviously ~good~ because he's an incredible musician and producer but nothing digging into my ear they way a bunch of tracks on Currents did.

 

I love the redone Borderline so much

 

I recommend listening to each song as it’s own thing. The production on this thing is so tight that I think it does start to blend together in the middle, but if you listen to each song on their own, I don’t think there’s a bad moment on this album

 

I listened yesterday in the middle of a 5-hour drive through the empty wastelands of mid-California, was kinda a perfect setting

 

that sounds like a Songs for the Deaf setting

 

there is a 100% chance that The Desert Sessions have happened in and around there, it's basically this for 4+ hours

 

Got mine in the mail

 

Mine’s still stuck in shipping hell.

 

Mine is showing up Friday

 

Can’t believe how much this is reselling for

 

this album is so good! i liked currents, need to spend some more time with the older stuff, but this one has me hooked!

 

2:53 of On Track is hitting really good right now

EDIT: Lost In Yesterday and Is It True back to back might be Kevin's biggest flex yet.

 

I guess my hottest take is that "Is It True" is good, but doesn't stand out to me much?

 

Is It True is arguably the most dance-able song on the album and I really like that about it.

 

Love Is It True


I like Lost In Yesterday but it wouldn’t reach my top 5.

 

Is It True doesn't even crack my top half!

This is the best album I've heard thus far this year and it's not even close.

 

It Might Be a Time is probably my fav at this point. One More Year and One More Hour are close behind

 

WHATEVER I’VE DONE

 

IT MIGHT BE TIME TO FACE IT

has been stuck in my head all week

 

holy shit i read this at the exact second kevin was singing it.

yeah, best song.

 

Feel like I read somewhere on this site that someone felt this was a regression, but I feel like this is such a successful amalgamation of all of his projects thus far
