Tame Impala - Currents [2015]


"Let It Happen" was a lovely single. It was also an announcement of a change that seemed almost inevitable for Tame Impala. The song is extremely groovy and drenched in synths. While it wasn't a world away from past Tame Impala songs it was definitely not strictly within the psychedelic rock label one could apply to Tame Impala's first two albums. This shouldn't have come as a shock, as Kevin Parker had always spoken about his admiration for pop music in particular. His recent masterpiece, Lonerism, was clearly more pop-leaning than Innerspeaker or the past Tame Impala EPs.
