tame impala - 'apocalypse dreams'

Tweet

It was a pleasant surprise this morning to see, amongst the usual Twitter noise that one of my favourite Aussie bands are trending. It's all to do with the news that they are back with a brand new single, available as a free download. This week is going to be a long one,  I can tell, so why not try to start it with a smile and give this a listen?

I rediscovered how good this album is on the long train journey home tonight. It's quite trippy in a Flaming Lips At War With the Mystics kind of way. The guitars scrunch, there's echo, distortion and feedback aplenty and what starts out as casual background music became a full on, all senses diverted to ears experience. This is one of the stand out tracks for me but I think the video below is a different production as it sounds fuller than my album version.
