I can imagine the big indie/alt/Psych artist of the 2040s being interviewed and asked "what's your first memory of music" and that kid being like "I just remember my mom/dad always had Tame Impala playing in the house"
My kids will be listening to Tame Impala for their early days
I’m not even a dad, but I can’t wait for my son and I to make a channel of me reacting to current music
@@StormyCult exactly man I can’t wait to show him all my music taste and music parents as well
My son and daughter who are 2 and 5 love tame impala
Ur literally blowing my mind rn
I say this all the time but I am legitimately jealous of anybody who gets to experience this album for the first time.
lol i just did when this video came out. 5 days later and I've already listened to this album and the slow rush multiple times at the gym.
Sometimes some songs needs to grow on you.... So the first time you may not like it.
Did you not have a first listening experience with this album?
Meee
No BS my first time hearing Tame was live at Coachella ‘19. Changed my life 😂
Eventually is one of those songs where you might not feel wowed the first time but it will find you on a random day during a random moment and hit you like a semi it’s insane.
This.
THIS HAPPENED TO ME THE OTHER DAY
Exactly!
Eventually had me on the first listen
THIS HAPPEND TO ME YESTERDAY
I love that moment during Let It Happen where he goes "Is it stuck, really!?". I think we all felt that on the first listen 😂
Definitely, I listened to the the music video version first so that section felt sooo long.
I first heard this album on vinyl. Picked it up on release day with my homie, we immediately went back to my place and threw it on the record player. You can imagine how heartbroken we were when the record started "skipping" lol
@@EvanRackle this is amazing haha
That’s how it feels like to listen to Strobe- Deadmau5
I didnt
I'd be in that field of people covered in neon and oil jamming to Let It Happen.
❤️
See you there bud!
nice to see you here 8. recently discovered your content and its fantastic. keep it up.
TMW he's literally describing the music vid to The Less I Know the Better without even knowing it xD
my fav song 🤍
I love how y’all don’t rate albums. You just listen and enjoy them for what they are and always have so much great commentary to add. I can’t wait to see what ya listen to next
It forces people to talk about the actual video and not some number + best & worst tracks
Yeah its so refreshing and real
i never really connected to “eventually” until i saw it live during a depressing time in my life and i cried while he played it.. the song really speaks to you when it needs to and it’s one of the best tracks on the album 💖
I guess you connected to it "eventually"...
This is a good point. Live music hits us so differently. Modest Mouse-Ocean breathes salty had me in immense tears. It hit my soul raw like it never did before. It’s an entirely different experience. I wish I can see Tame Impala live sometime in my life.
DUDE i get it "eventually" finally hit me
ooff, i remember too, shouting EVENTUALLY in the live concert like my life depended on it
It also has one of the best outros ever imo
Can’t believe Kevin didn’t really think much of eventually. For me it’s the best track on the album, from the production to the lyrics and the outro this track is 10/10!
Eventually is one of those that hits live 100x better or cruising with friends
@@jennysmundo and/or on psychedelics
My boyfriend and I said “I love you” for the first time during this song at a Tame show…
To be fair on first listen it's hard. Eventually is a song that really grew on me a year or so after the album came out. I don't know why but one day I listened to it and it just hit me like a brick.
We all know the Guitar Riff is probably the best part of the song 😩
Wish I could hear “yes I’m changing” for the first time again. So ethereal.
!!!
same
i just heard it for the first time and my life has changed
ME TOOO
literally
It's funny how every single article of clothing the dad wears is an adult version of what his son is wearing. 🤔
That dad has some serious style
They got drip
the dad is just wearing normal clothes idk wtf the son is wearing 💀
They match they're outfits in videos sometimes
Let’s be real, the bond between these two is goals
For real
For real he does not know how lucky he is to have such a tight relationship with his Dad.
@@ITPFS right? so cool how they joke around and laugh like they're best friends
@@ITPFSI am pretty sure he does. Also, it is mostly thanks to him - you can see he is a really good kid, who lets others be themselves.
love/paranoia is severely underrated nobody talks about it when praising the album.
fr! it’s my fav on this album
Hard agree
YESSS
oh man its just got so much feeling its criminally underrated for sure
It’s definitely one of the top songs of my list
You can officially say that you’ve listened to one of best albums of all time. An absolute masterpiece. Kevin Parker is a musical genius.
Bro it's not that good, I appreciate the enthusiastic but "all time" not even in the conversation
Oh shit! We have some edge!!! What albums would you prefer I listen to?
I challenge you with some Briston Maroney. I will listen to what you lay down if you listen to what I lay down. The sunflower visual album is so damn dope from Briston, though.
best albums of all time. hmmm. so much ahead of you to listen to ..... You have so much to discover.
@@miloparker7828 I think there's just a stigma with this album, it truly is one of the greatest albums ever and there's a lot of those too and it's also entirely subjective lol.
The thing that is incredible about Tame Impala is his ability to use reverb and wub wub to litterally make it seem like the sound is hitting different parts of your brain. Like you can feel the sound moving in your head. Listening to him is like entering into pleasant mind control.
Lol wub wub
Wub wub
Funny thing is the song/word "Nangs" is slang for a method of consuming nitrous oxide. When you experience it, there is a quite a drowning wub wub wub sound as depicted in the song. It is fleeting and thus the song is short as mentioned by the father.
Stereo
LFO + Phaser = tame impala wub wub
Let it happen still gives me chills everytime
fr i am LETTING IT HAPPEN
The first time I heard “Let it Happen” I was like god damn why is it so long, cause I was always waiting for the guitar solo (yes I got the song from TT shame on me) little did I know after a few more listens it would become my favorite song of all time across all genres. Seeing it live was a Top 5 moment in my life so far.
Hahaha yoo this is so like me, i like why this song took so long so boring, and when i repeat it again and again yoo why can't this come off and keep spinning in my head😅. And yes this song is also my best song of all time along with self control-frank, ghost town and runaway-kanye🐐.
Dude same, I always skipped to that part but lately I’ve listened to the whole song and now it’s my favorite song
Literally the same for me too. I heard the riff on a Ford commercial and listened to the actual song after. Was not impressed. But a few years later I listened more and it quickly became a top 5 song of mine.
Me
This is me, literally 😭
I’m 59 years old and absolutely love this music. Have Currents, Lonerism and Innerspeaker on vinyl.
your comment is priceless!
You are literally so amazing! I strive to be like this!
Right on bro!
Yes bro! Amazing to hear.
You should get the slow rush!
It's one of the few albums that exist with literally no flaws, a modern classic. It's an album that a person who isn't aware of this genre dabbled in, from hard-core hip-hop listeners to hyper-pop listeners. This video is also an instant classic!
Oh yeah, Kevin Parker found the way to attract fans of indie, hip hop/R&B, 80s music, hell even internet stuff like chillwave
it also can be an album for any feeling, sad, happy, driving and or partying
Isn't that subjective and based on perception? I like Tame Impala and all but a studio album SHOULD be "flawless". If I ever make a studio album and have as many attempts as I want to perfect what gets put on the album, that sh*t BETTER be "flawless". And there's still going to be people who don't care for it...
@@OGBlackBridge This comment is redundant. Everything is subjective and based on perception just like your comment.
Ehh I’d say Cause I’m A Man is a blemish on an otherwise perfect album.
New person, same old mistakes just hits different, never fails to surprise me
Oh ill never forget the first time i listened to this album. I was in high school, at lunch my friend was listening to it and she gave me an earphone. i really enjoyed it. That night when i got home i had forgotten my keys and nobody was home so i decided to lay down on a chair in my backyard and listened to the whole thing while waiting for someone to come home. That same night my friend and i bought tickets for their show. I was 15 and it was the first concert i ever went to. I dont think anything is ever gonna top that experience. That album made me fall in love with music.
That sounds like an absolute vibe and a half!
I think I found Tame Impala from TikTok comp (I know, I'm a heretic, just toss me into the fire already). The specific thing had a slowed version of the Bassline from Let It Happen and it about knocked my socks off. Found the song, put it on blast, and I'm fairly certain I spent 8 minutes outside my body that night. Such a good album, but Let It Happen will always hold a special place in my heart.
Also, Tame Impala is honestly making me consider the idea of learning how to read music n such and learn to play the Bass Guitar (or a Guitar in general), so here's to hoping that goes well lmao
Edit: Just realized how recent your comment was, glad to see new people finding this video! It's hilarious
As a tame impala superfan i love seeing someone get as excited as i do to listen to his music and i wish i could to listen to currents again for the first time
I can't tell you what I would give to hear Currents again for the first time
lmao "superfan"
@@deadccc if you're a superfan, what city was kevin parker born in?
If you’re a super fan when did Kevin Parker’s great great grandfathers second cousin eat chicken for the first time??
@@keirandemelo4490 if you're 'were' a super fan, then u would know Kevin Parker's great great grandfathers second cousin is a life long vegetarian and don't eat chicken
This album gives me chills every single time I listen. Truly a masterpiece I wish I could hear it for the first time again.
Same 😭
Haven´t yet, but will do tomorrow. Am excited :)
Listen it to it on acid, first time all over again
Kevin Parker has said in interviews how important live recording, especially from drums, is to him. He said you can't get the same feel out of synthesized drums. Honestly, I think I understand him. I used to feel differently, especially knowing you can add swing and stuff to synth drums. But damn. The clear and crisp sound of those drums, and the personality in the playing, it's just unmatchable.
He used a drum machine primarily on currents though. But yeah in other albums yes
Disciples is a song I don't ever hear anyone talk about but it is just pure ear candy. I'm with y'all in wishing it was longer, but what's there is absolute bliss. I must've put that song on repeat and listened to it 20 times in a row when it first came out.
same tbh
Disciples is such a sweet short song, it's a perfect length imo
Yes yes yes
Super super underrated. And you’re right, it’s short length makes it very endearing and leaves you wanting more, but it still feels complete!
the part with the switch cutting the tape hiss is such a small detail but its so cool
I listened to this album on 4 grams of shrooms and cried so much. I thought I was insane for a while and then I realized I should treat my mom better.
would you consider it a bad trip or a good one?
@@Slims222 I don't believe in bad trips
@@rightnearthebeach does that prevent them from happening? law of attraction type thing?
@@Slims222 it means that whether I had a good time or a bad time, it was a positive experience.
@@Slims222 Yeah I feel like when you have a "bad trip" it's because you are (unconsciously) struggling with stuff in your life. "Bad trips" takes those things to the forefront so you have to deal with it.
Let It Fappen
Aint no way you‘re watching these guys as well! The greatest motion graphic Channel!
i say the same fucking thing when singing that song LOL
Didn't expect to see you here, what a welcome surprise
let it fappen-ing
I love the little bat! I remember seeing your video where it came from haha!
Grew up with no dad, plenty of friends and loving family, just absent father.
It's so odd and refreshing seeing how similar and hilarious you two are. I've been told I'm a clone copy of my father, and that he was also a goofball like me, fellow metalhead also.
Jealous to say the least. Keep being original, you two are just as much a comedy duo as you are a family haha 🤙
I never hear anyone talk about Nangs and it’s such a cool little track! The name is based on the Aussie term for whippets and it’s designed to mimic the feeling of doing one. Even the length of track matches up with the short high you get from them. Such a cheeky Easter egg IMO
WOW I never new that 😮 I love that fun fact
this makes total sense, never realised this before!! my man has definitely analyzed his past experiences with whippets lol, that droning at the beginning as you’re the highest on your hit and then the ebbing into more ethereal music as the high wears is peeeeerfect. not planning on doing whippets anytime soon but i gotta keep this song in mind for if i ever do find myself in that situation again lol
Let It Happen is just epic. I had never heard it when I saw them recently in Portland and it blew my mind, plus confetti shot out after the breakdown and it was sweet.
That show changed my life
That show was wicked!!!! Elephant lights was sooo good. Also the song with the big wave.
@@shuggieee9467 I had only heard a few of his songs at that time, oddly enough. I see that I watched "Feels Like We Only Go Backwards" on UA-cam in 2014. The wave song (super psychedelic) was "Apocalypse Dreams" I think.
@@ClayShentrup yesssss absolutely!!!! Apocalypse dream! I couldn’t remember the name but I had a wicked sense of euphoria when that song came on. I’m so glad I discovered them.
Let it happen gives me the same sense of feeling as Strobe from deadmau5. Like the buildup to the drops are one in a million
This album was THE breakup album of my 20's. I used to drive around my hometown and listen to this for hours on end. Incredibly soothing and cathartic.
Facts. I first heard this album back in 2016. That was also the first year I got my Challenger. I'd drive around for hours bumping this album, specifically Eventually and New Person, Same Mistakes.
At the same time, this was also the year I broke up with my GF. Curents just hit so much harder afterwards.
literally SAME
same bro a J and yes im changing got me through so much shit
I was in a happy relationship all throughout the years of Currents, and then absolutely suffering through that traumatic breakup when The Slow Rush came out. It was honestly a yin and yang thing that worked out kind of beautifully, those albums together mean a ton to me.
omg same, broke up with my gf of 3 years, went home, put my headphones on, blasted currents all the way through lying down on my floor looking at the ceiling, cried quite a bit
I discovered Tame Impala accidentally and immediately fell in love. I’m not a music buff and don’t really explore new stuff. In fact, I mostly listen to the same 8-10 albums I enjoyed during my teens. But Tame Impala’s music was something I was just immediately drawn to and I’m so grateful for having stumbled on to his music. This is so up my alley!
Same for me about 6 years ago. I’m so hooked on Kevin’s sound that I can tell when he collabs w/other artists
7:52 I saw Kevin play Let it happen live at a festival and it was at sunset and I can tell you it was one of the best music experiences I've ever had.
Eventually is SO damn good, hard to believe your pops wasn't that impressed with it! We all connect differently to things, so it's understandable, but I'm def a little saddened by it lol
Ye. One of Tame Impalas best tracks
kind of song that people have to listen to more than once and then you realize it is one of the best tracks ever ! love it!
Eventually live is something else
eventually is in my top 5 of all time, such an amazing track
totally agree with you.. when he said he wasnt that impressed, i was like what.. HOW??!!
I see that Elliott in the background 😍😍
Jon give us an Elliott video pls
bro react to elliott pls it’d make me happy
Yooo jon
Wait so all the folks I follow happen to watch all the things I do?
JD the Prophet, out here
I feel like I have lived under a god damn rock. How have I missed Tame Impala and this album? I do recognize "Let It Happen", but holy shat am I glad that UA-cam algorithm put this video of yours in my feed. This album is a masterpiece. So much eargasm!
The relationship you guys have makes these videos a million times better. Much love for you two and the whole family
One of the best indie albums of our time. Your dad has great taste. I wish my dad was this open to music that I like 😅. Anyways great vid!
*albums in general*
i wish i had a dad
Just the best indie album ever.
My dad doesn't lisen to music at all
holy shit its lil uzi vert
“All that unfamiliar stuff becomes familiar, and then you crave it”. This man gets it.
Can confirm - I have seen Tame Impala outside twice while the sun was setting. Everyone was totally grooving but sadly there was no neon paint!
"Is it stuck, really?"
Hahaha i think everyone has that moment the first time
I would like to see Dad choose one or a few of his fave LPs and have Son react! Maybe for a holiday special? I'd assume that he's already played a few albums for his son, but surely he's got some fun stuff for them to react to or revisit :)
I agree!
Yes!!
Agreed
Who remembers their first listen to “Let it happen”? What did it make you feel?
Like I was in another world fam.
erethral
still can't really say
I was laying on my bed. Super sad, my lights were turned off. The only light in my room was coming from my computer. The song started playing and I instantly felt relieved! Went from crying to laying on my bed thinking about life! So amazing.
It made me feel things 😩
I wish I could hear Eventually, Is It True, Let it Happen and The moment for the first time. Best songs for me
Eventually is a trip
@@retnugnahte especially the last part without voice in my opinion
@@Splatter888 very true
During a very depressing point in my life I played this album daily for what seemed like 2 years. At some point it dawned on me that I had been listening to it for so long. I can't remember the last time an album grabbed ahold of me so fast and for so long. It took years to shake this album. Slow rush was the only thing that snapped me out of it. I have to believe that Parker did it intentionally. Perhaps he's just so tuned in to the human experience of my generation.
I've grown to prefer Lonerism a lot more but this is such a great intro to modern Psychedelic-Pop/Rock and other fuzed Psych genres with R&B and Hip-Hop. Definitely a hallmark album in the 2010s.
I think I like InnerSpeaker more than Lonerism. InnerSpeaker is way more 70's psychedelic rock inspired I feel like. My dad made me grow up on stuff like pink floyds Echoes, Animals, Ummagumma and more from other bands. It just fits me more.
Lonerism came out on my birthday 😈
Lonerism really does get to me
who asked you nerd
Wtf are you talking about
dude is guiding his dad through psychedelic trip "you can close your eyes at this point"
Hehe

This reaction, when it came out a year ago, is what made me a fan of Tame Impala and had me listening to all of his music. Thank you for that!
I saw Tame Impala live 3 weeks ago and it was probably the best live show I’ve ever seen, the whole production and light show is out of this world
I get to in a few months and I can not wait
My dream is to experience a tame Impala show on LSD
@@willcarder8787 it’s a trip, I’m sure ;)
I just saw Tame Impala at Buku in NoLa and it was by far greatest performance I've ever seen. The ring light and the lasers where insane.

i love your guys's relationship. I never knew parental relationships could be so free and genuinely friendly/friendlike. Makes me so happy and heals my inner child
:')
I lost my father when I was 9. He was a part time DJ while also being the Director of a Music Store in Portugal. The legacy he left me are more than 1500 vinyl records, DJ setups, etc.. I get sad for thinking he couldn´t had the opportunity to see me grow and enjoy the good taste in music that he inspired and left me. Seing all your videos, makes me happy because I can imagine doing the same with my dad if he would be around. Keep doing a great work together, really like your channel :)
"Eventually" is one of Kevin's best tracks ever. I hope his opinion has changed.
I'm so jealous of the relationship you guys have. You really have so much fun together like friends do. I wish I had this with my parents. Cherish it!

every once in a while i go back to this album and get obssesed with it, truly one of my favorites of all time.
Listened to this album for the very first time while off a tab of lsd. The experience it took me on is impossible to formulate into words.
The dreams of me, to just re-experience the album but with psychedelics
Same…I will never forget it
@@leslievi SAME WITH BEACH HOUSE
Same and i felt like the tracklist was speaking to me
Same with me, but instead of lsd is was shrooms with some of my best buds. A windy day on a mountain with tall green grass. Literally felt like I found heaven.
The 2nd half of let it happen is probably the best thing that’s ever happened musically if we are all being honest
Yes. Just yes.
so true
I was on shrooms and thought I was going insane because of that song
Musical perfection
that riff is just so nuts
I truly love how conversational your videos are. The way that you and your dad interact together is great to witness. My father passed away when I was 5 and I miss him more and more as I get older. Watching your conversations and connection together makes me feel so safe. Thank you
❤️
It wasn’t until after my breakup and listening to eventually that I finally realized the beauty of this song. I avoided it so long because somehow, it spoke into my relationship and I just couldn’t go through with it. I’m glad I’m able to appreciate it now though 💕💕💕
this guy's dad is cool as hell, and funny, never seen this channel or a father son music review duo. This is awesome fellas, I'll be tuning in from here forward
literally me rn wtffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His dad doesn't even look much older than him. He also dresses much younger than your average dad with a son that age.
Kevin is all of our dad now. Dude is freaking likeable
Nangs was made about the inhalant drug Nitrous Oxide (NOs, Nangs, Whippets, Cream Chargers) it's a short intense high around the same length as the song. The song was created to make the listener feel what the buildup of a person inhaling a 'nang' feels like and how the intense high sounds and feels. Kevin was spot on with this, and I found it hilarious how you wished it was longer, which is exactly the same idea of a nang addict
I love how they’re nothing tapping their feet at the same time
someone draw them as a two headed really wide guy
Lmao I didn’t notice that
You just introduced me to Mac Miller which is freaking eye opening and now I see you are listening to one of my favorites. I didn't know other people were moved by music like I am... what a relief

Watching these is like bonding with a father I never had
Just started getting into tame impala and im absolutely addicted. theres something about his music thats different than any other music ive ever heard and i cant stop listening. The first song i heard was eventually, then the less i know the better made me want to keep listening to more. Its amazing when you find a new artist. I feel so many emotions from his music, its insane.
Man this takes me back to when I used to manage a metal band. We'd just sit around for hours and listen to different songs and they'd analyze it while I'd just sit back and enjoy. It's so awesome seeing people in their element.
The bassline at the end of Let It Happen is one of my favorite moments in any Tame Impala song. Kevin Parker is an amazing bassist
Appreciate you guys 🙏
well gosh fricken dang
❤️🙏
'Cause I'm a Man has to be talked about more, it's just perfection.
This is seriously such an amazing series. I'm close with my father and we both are in love with some of the same music but it is such a great feeling to experience loving music with another person, especially in that type of relationship. You both are awesome. Thanks for these
I have a complicated relationship with my dad, we get along but he doesn't let you get too close but I can live vicariously through these two.
During Nangs your dad was saying how he could hear Frank on this. There is a a guy that mixed Blonde and Currents and its AMAZING. its on youtube. Franks vocals over Currents is flawless.

Fun fact: In Australia a Nang is the colloquial term for a wippet (nitrous dioxide bulb) which are a pretty big part of party culture over here and for anyone who has ever experienced one, I'm sure you can understand Kevin's naming of the track.
now i need full explanation 😮
@@satyapura7253 the way the track comes in, the warbling bass and synth stabs, emulates the auditory effects you get from enjoying a huff of nitrous
lmfao fuken wippets
that fuckin WAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA
yesss!! i commented this too! crazy thing huh
It's really nice to watch, listen and experience the feelings Kevin Parker brings to most people with a man who knew this type of music and beats when he was younger. He gets to relive the emotions through a newer artist expressing music so well, and also for the newer generation to also feel that nostalgia which they never experienced. Big love for all.
took acid at a tame impala concert and I literally feel the same euphoria I felt at the concert every single time I listen. greatest experience ever
regarding what kevin said about the less i know the better being kevin parker’s “wow this is a big hit” moment, if i’m not mistaken he tried to give the song away to his friend Mark Ronson but he turned it away because he knew it would be a mistake
new person, same old mistakes
wow respect to mark ronson
Two gigachads apparently
Actually I think he had already given it to Mark Ronson for his uptown funk special album but then he ended up asking for it back
actually, kevin's wife was the one who told him not to do it, kevin said it on a podcast or in an interview, I don't remember
'Nangs' is so short because it's written specifically to accompany a drug, called nangs in Australia (maybe has different name in US). Nangs is simply a gas that you inhale from a canister after transferring it to a balloon (often bike tyre gas) to replace the oxygen in your brain for about 90secs - 2mins. Clearly very unhealthy and I haven't done it myself, but it's supposedly intensely euphoric and 'spacey', usually making your eyes roll back and your body convulse (but in a nice way). The repeated lyrical phrase "but is there something more than that" represents the feeling you get as the high fades so quickly, and this could maybe be likened in some way to an orgasm (?). Overall you can hear how accurately the song reflects the drug's effects, and how perfectly it accompanies the high for someone using it. Hope this was interesting!
Wonder if this is what whipits/ inhaling nitrous gas is in the US
In the US they just refer to it as nozzing. Like “yo, you nozzing it?” They use a NOS (nitrous oxide) Tank.
@@drpimpen yep that's the one! I forgot what it was called in other places
@@f.l2142 yeh nangs are the same as whipits in the US. The song sounds like when you do a nang with the repetitiveness and wob wob wob noise.
Some whip it’s at a rave while rolling will have you leaving knowing you’ll never feel as good as you did in there
One of my fave albums and The Less I Know The Better is my actual jam. I listen to it on repeat daily and will never tire of it
I just saw them for the 4th time last night. Biggest venue I have seen them in, and hearing thousands of people singing along to 'Eventually' was epic. Seriously beautiful stuff ✨
Please give lonerism a listen next. It's the perfect mix of Kevin's psych rock roots and the more recent synth oriented stuff
Definitely. My favourite album of his
Yea I agree that’s his best album
My favorite álbum ever
Yessss
Lonerism and currents are superb
I would say this album is on the level of dark side of the moon. Not in popularity but musically they have no flaws.
Well said my dude! I agree
Almost but not quite
Stop the cap bro
agreed
😂
Let It Happen is probably my favourite Tame Impala track.
His reaction to let it happen with covered in oil people is so on point cause it’s literally about feeling ecstasy or lsd for the first time where you let it happen :) I’m guessing that’s what he meant by when he said it took him to 80s
Funny thing is every time this song plays in concert everyone gets covered in confetti at the climax of this song after the “glitch”
I think it's meant more for general life, letting stuff happen but sure I guess it can be put that way too
You guys should really make this into a podcast format. Would love to listen to this on a commute.
i would listen to that 24/7
i play this videos while i do literally everything. i like to listen to music album at a time, and getting to listen to the album with an open minded father and his son is just so cool
so yes i agree😩
would be lowkey problematic with copyright
They have uncut versions on their patron, I'm seriously considering supporting them over there cause I love listening to these in the background whilst I do stuff
Hopefully some day you can do some LCD SOUNDSYSTEM - this is happening or sound of silver, I think your dad would love these albums
Yes! This Is Happening is one of my favorite albums ever, but Sound of Silver might be a better starting point if you’ve never heard LCD before
This is Happening +1
This Is Happening is the one!
Both!! Hell yeah
I love how the table continues the currents patterns of the album
Just saw him live, it was everything you’d expect it to be ❤️ such a nice entrance back into concert life!
Tbh i prefer you guys doing a variety of artists than sticking to any one artist’s discography. Keeps things fresh
I like it. If they'd just binged through the Kanye discog it would have gotten so boring, I'm glad they're spacing it out
I think what they're doing is excellent going back and forth based on what gets the best vibes
@@arthurdunn4594 Kanye’s album are different and I enjoy his dad reaction to “our music”.
Yeah also I would love if they continue picking more diverse album not only rap and hip hop. They are so much genre out there it will be sad to only stick to one.
I agree, there is so much out there to listen to. Don’t want to fall into a hole of the same artist/genres.
I hope your dad understands that Travis Scott literally listens to Tame Impala when not listening to his music (Writing this comment at the beginning of the premiere) lol, I love currents, it has so much psychedelic vibes
Cringe
Cringe
Wow, I never knew that. Pretty cool
and they’ve worked together more than once
Big reason why they’re performing at Astrofest
Can’t believe this album will soon be a decade old. It hasn’t aged a day in quality.
You and your dad seem to have a great relationship! Very wholesome to see
wish i could go back and listen to this record for the first time again. my favorite record of all time.
I like that they brought up the fact that there's a lot of breakup dialogue in this album because it came out within a month of my first major breakup...it was something that was so key in putting my thoughts to words and bringing me peace, letting go of the other person and feeling like waiting for them would be a mistake... kudos to this album for helping all the heartbreaks like mine!
Love that for you 🦋
ahhh I love that for you!! I listened to this album shortly after my first major breakup too. it felt very timely :)
Waiting for them would be a mistake. Very nice, dawg.
This album changed my life. You guys should really do little dark age by MGMT one time
Best mgmt album. So good
just saw him live a couple days ago and it was amazing!! The light show was the most craziest thing I’ve ever seen. The music hits so much different live
Let It Happen is such an unbelievable opener
This album healed me in so many occasions
Conclusion: the entire album is a MASTERPIECE!
I live in Victoria, Australia. Tame Impala did a national tour of our country and visited our small city of Geelong. They played in a small bar to no more than 100 people circa 2009 after the release of their first EP and the Sundown Syndrome EP. It’s so cool to see how far they’ve come throughout the last decade!
Back then, everyone thought Tame Impala was more of a traditional band. But then after Currents came out, Kev was more open about how it was really primarily him doing the writing, recording and producing.
Seeing him and the band live, lights and background changing, the music takes you on a trip somewhere and by the end you feel like you've been gently set back in earth from a ufo. Insane experience
