Global sensation Tame Impala have announced their highly anticipated third studio album. The 13 track album, Currents was written, recorded, produced and mixed by Kevin Parker in Fremantle, West Australia. Lyrically the record finds Parker in a very different place in 2015 to where he was seven years ago. Transitions in life, relationships, perspectives, mindsets - Currents maps Parker's evolution through these and finds him a brand new person. Musically, Currents sounds like the work of a player on top of his game and having a blast, Parker indulging his whims and unafraid to dive down the rabbit hole after an idea. Again operating as a one man studio band, Parker's resultant record calls to mind contemporary hip hop production, Thriller, fried 70s funk, the irreverent playground Daft Punk presented on Discovery, swathes of future pop and emotional 80s balladry, all filtered through a thoroughly modern psychedelic third eye. A genre-bending soundscape fuelled equally by curiosity as it is consciousness; it's an exhilarating new territory for Tame Impala. Review: Incredible album, perfect on vinyl - Currents is one of those albums that just feels made for vinyl. The sound is warm, full, and layered in a way that really comes alive through speakers. Every track flows perfectly into the next, and the production quality is brilliant. The pressing itself is clean with no pops or surface noise, and the packaging looks great, vibrant artwork and a sturdy sleeve. If youโre into Tame Impala or just love well produced, psychedelic indie music, this is an essential addition to your collection. Review: great album - One of the best albums of the 21st century. Would definitely recommend

Review of the VINYL version
Review of the VINYL version. I shouldn't quibble as I'm really delighted with this double LP and its lovely artwork for only ยฃ8.64 delivered to my house, (thank you Amazon), but I must sound a warning about any promise of better sound quality. Given that many will pay a premium ยฃ20+ for the vinyl version, I can't recommend it to them at those prices. Unlike most vinyl on my system, this has very little of that extra "openness" and sounds only a little better than the MP3 streaming I listened to first on PRIME. The CD version is surely more convenient. So fine electronic music, but maybe not the best format... unless you really like the bigger artwork...

I'm A Big Fan!
I don't buy many CDs nowadays as I often only like a few tracks and the rest seem like filler. However I bought this because I love it all. One of the most exciting groups nowadays especially live. People of all ages like them (my generation remembers psychedelia the first time round)! With his John Lennon style voice, no wonder Kevin Parker appeals to a wide age group. There are some gems on this album: The Moment, Yes I'm Changing, Eventually, New Person, Same Old Mistakes (Rihanna covered this one). I first caught onto this group after hearing Let It Happen and hadn't felt so excited about a song for a very long time. Great video too. I've since listened to the other two Tame Impala albums and like those too but I think this is the best and probably the most commercial (but in a good way). Give it a listen, I doubt you'll be disappointed. I was suitably impressed with their 2016 Glastonbury appearance - exciting performance, confetti, lights and a rainbow thrown in for good measure!
