Tame Impala-Apocalypse Dreams

Kevin Parker has been a busy man lately. He’s been in the studio mixing and recording with Melody Prochet of Melody’s Echo Chamber (check out “Crystallized”) and also working on new material with his psych rock outfit Tame Impala. Earlier this week the band dropped news of a sophomore record titled Lonerism and with that came a new track from the LP titled “Apocalypse Dreams”. Of course when I found out about this I had to visit Pitchfork to hear the single for myself and needless to say, I was thoroughly impressed. If you thought that 2010’s Innerspeaker was as good as it gets then you’re certainly mistaken because Tame Impala has only improved on their blissful style of psychedelia pop since then. I promise that I’m completely sober at the moment but when I put on “Apocalypse Dreams” it’s like I’m in a completely different state of mind. If you think I’m just over exaggerating then listen to the track for yourself and I’m sure that you’ll catch my drift. You can grab the song for free via Pitchfork and expect the group to drop the next single “Elephant” later this month. Lonerism is scheduled for an October release through Modular People.
