@@DiasOtoño Well there's barely any artists out there that sound exactly like him or look remotely like him. It's referring to the loose but funky vibe of the music giving early 80s bowie energy.
Jay Watson is fucking bomb on drums! So often overlooked, but he always seems to put the perfect fill or rhythm into every track. Such good style and gets a brilliant sound out of his drums
So the keyboardist for Tame Impala is playing Drums here, And Drummer for Tame Impala is playing bass here, And the former Bassist of Tame Impala is playing guitar and singing here. How talented are these guys?
Another great, great drummer is Barbagallo who is playing the bass here and is The drummer in Tame Impala.... 2/5 of Tame Impala and produced by Kevin Parker ... nice
+Cody Cecil this was the first performance I listened almost a year ago and it was when I opened my hears to the music I actually love!!! It was here where it all started, the huge cultural background on music I have now. I can say the impact was huge, and it's also my favourite for those reasons :) throwback...
ive watched this definitely more than a hundred times and never really acknowledged how amazing Jay's drumming really is on midnight mass until i tried playing it myself lol holy fuck, Jay Watson has godly chops
Every once in awhile I will revisit this video and every time I do, I'm just as blown away as the first time I watched it!! These guys make some really amazing music and perform it so well!!! Big love to all the boys
Cloud Control, the High Highs, Pond, Tame Impala. Sooooo much good music coming out of Australia and what do we get here in Wichita Kansas? We get three "classic rock" stations playing 40 songs from 40 years ago over and over again.
I remember talking to Nick a few years back in Seattle before one of his shows for Tame Impala, asking him for advice as a fellow musician. He kept insisting that he really wasn't the right person I should be asking. Yeah fucking right Dude!
Pond has such a magical sound but at the same time they're just a bunch of guys having fun. They became my favorite band quickly after discovering them. KEXP, bring them back to the studio for another round!
Amazing!!! Can't believe I've lost this guys and Impala this year, hope they come back to São Paulo again And Nick is just getting cuter every day. Oh god I wish I could tight him up so hard like a teddy bear lol
LOVE these people sooooooooo much..love their music and they have the biggest hearts and that's why they are the best best best..!!!! sending as much love as i can
I don't understand how they are so humble. They act as if Man it Feels Like Space Again is just some cheap untalented music when in reality that album has songs that are so well polished and elegant. Those songs have the most amazing feel and are able to transition to totally different moods multiple times within the song. I think their music is absolutely sophisticated, they mix it so masterfully and its so much better than they give it credit for. Pond you guys fucking rock!
I love all PONDS output. They're an incredible group. Bursting with melody and creativity. Never contrived. Nik is a huge pop star in waiting imho. Interesting to here them talk about Hobo Rocket as being a rock album - I appreciate that it is "rockier" on the whole - but it also has one of my favourite POND songs on it - the totally not rock, beautifully woozy and groovtastic O Dharma on it.
22:56 can anyone identify the pedals? I See: Boss BD2; Boss RE-20 Space Echo; Diamond Vibrato; PS6 Harmonist; Moer Echo delay; Boss Chromatic Tunner; Dynacomp
David Bowie is proud of all his children
this doesnt sound like bowie at all
nor look

@@DiasOtoño are you kidding? the vocal melodies & phrasing of Dont Look At The Sun are VERY Bowie. its totally his DNA all over this.
Mum, dad, take a seat. I don't know how to put this - I'm moving to Perth.
+Liam Macca hahaha me too
+Liam Macca Australia is the best place for music now
+Liam Macca But living in Perth makes me feel like the biggest talent less piece of shit.
+Liam Macca Perth is the best man... You'll love it. So laid back
+Liam Macca these guys probably spend more time in the states than back in Australia just fyi.
Jay is a great drummer
+FF Understatement haha
he was behind the kit for Tame Impala for years, before they changed their lineup..
Seems they changed it to put his talent to use...
Check out Jay's solo project GUM! ;)
lol
Jay Watson is fucking bomb on drums! So often overlooked, but he always seems to put the perfect fill or rhythm into every track. Such good style and gets a brilliant sound out of his drums
Groove machine
dude rocks.

+Cody Cecil agree

The outro of Midnight Mass is so Floyd. I love it, much more epic than the album version
Mink Mussel Creek, Tame Impala, POND, GUM, Nick Allbrook.. My music library wants more.
If you don't already listen to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, you need to
+ActuallyDarcy Nonagon Infinity bruh. :) King Gizzard are at the top of my list.
I'm finally getting around to listening to all of their stuff and oh my lord, they're perfect
+ActuallyDarcy Legends I tell you. They slay every damn time.
check out temples :D
Man... Jay has THE Groove
Thanks Jay, now I want a drum set.
I came like 5 times to the outro of midnight mass
Wow, that slide guitar in Midnight Mass ... I could listen to that all day!
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these guys just get better. They sound better live then their studio albums.
Cloud Control, the High Highs, Pond, Tame Impala. Sooooo much good music coming out of Australia and what do we get here in Wichita Kansas? We get three "classic rock" stations playing 40 songs from 40 years ago over and over again.
Check out Sticky Fingers, Violent Soho, DMA's as well just to name a few more Aussie Artists! I'm from Perth FYI 👍🏼
i love it when jay is on drums oh fuuccckkk yeeeaaa
nick allbrook is god, hobo rocket is one of the best psychedelic rock album of all times

Top kexp performances, easily
I always come back to this to listen to Jays fantastic drumming
Midnight mass is a journey of a song. Absolutely in love with these guys music
I don't know why I never saw these before! OFCOURSE they're on kexp!

The last part of Midnight Mass is just the best.
One of the rare cases where all eyes are on the drummer...
Saw these guys yesterday! They are very cool live. Top set.
Thank you so much KEXP for all the great music you allow me to enjoy
I remember talking to Nick a few years back in Seattle before one of his shows for Tame Impala, asking him for advice as a fellow musician. He kept insisting that he really wasn't the right person I should be asking. Yeah fucking right Dude!
there is advice is that, be a humble musician and do your thing, march to the beat of your own drum
Jam Club Soul Music I still prefer to think Nick didn't want to say "smoke plenty of weed" hahahaha
It’s the it factor some have it and some never will
Syd Barrett says Hi.
Stephen Tack Best comment I've seen on all of these KEXP videos. Hahaha.
Slightlydelic couldn't agree less!!!
Damn Jay watson on drums again :D and surprised to se julian on bass! this is great! :D
Pond has such a magical sound but at the same time they're just a bunch of guys having fun. They became my favorite band quickly after discovering them.
KEXP, bring them back to the studio for another round!
Amazing!!! Can't believe I've lost this guys and Impala this year, hope they come back to São Paulo again
And Nick is just getting cuter every day. Oh god I wish I could tight him up so hard like a teddy bear lol
Saw them Oct 17 in LA... they ROCK!!!
Thank you so much to KEXP to make me discover this AWESOME band !!!
Saw them live in Mexico City in Corona Capital, felt in love with them since then
Same (:
HOLY SHIT!!! What a killer band. WOW! And those drums sounded KILLER! Nicely done mates.
That is what you call a drummer!!
its been two weeks since i last watched this whole session and here i am again. can't get over how amazing they are.
These guys are awesome! Refreshing.
So lucky to have seen these boys live

One of the best Bands in these times!
I love how Pond has Jesus Christ on synth

That’s Gilfoyle from Silicon Valley
Alguien de Argentina??? Este domingo 6 de noviembre explotan las galaxias en Niceto!
A pleno!

Met all the boys at Laneway and was up the front for their set. New stuff is crazy good live
That second song is pretty sweet...
someone please turn the bass volume up
Genius. I grew up listening to whatever john Peel played. he would've loved Pond and partly thanks to him I do!
I turned on to this band the second I heard firts few notes
Best band in the world nowadays!
I miss watching Gumby play drums. The amount of things I've learned (stolen) just by watching this video alone is remarkable.
que buenos que estuvieron en chile cabros!!!
This band is amazing and I'm lucky enough to have found them and see them play. Can't wait for the new album.
Dont Look At The Sun live is so amazing
2000年代以降のネオサイケ系のバンドで一番好き！
sweet can't wait for the new record

These guys make their guitars sound like synths
2021 still hitting

Fantastic photography!
Pond, very nicely done!
Love that, Realistic MG-1 Concertmate! My profile pic, is of me, with mine around 87'. Sadly, I don't have it. Very cool, little synth!
