Finer Things: Tame Impala
Tame Impala first placed themselves among psychadelic rock legends with their 2012 sophomore release Lonerism. Since then, the Australian-based band has been found at music festivals all around the world, including an upcomiing appearance at this year’s Sasquatch festival.
A few weeks ago, rumours of a new album were confirmed with the release of the single “Let It Happen.” The seven and a-half-minute-long song keeps all of the reverb and wandering guitar riffs that fans have come to love while introducing elements of pop and trance music. The result is a catchy hit that people from all musical backgrounds can appreciate.
Assuming “Let It Happen” is an accurate reflection of the album to come, Tame Impala is about to prove their value in the psych music scene again.
