Tame Impala headlining Citadel Festival (Alberto Pezzali / Live4ever)
It’s not taken long for Kevin Parker to come up with an alternative version of Tame Impala‘s fourth studio album The Slow Rush.
Only released back in February, it’s now got a new, pertinent hour-long form dubbed The Slow Rush In An Imaginary Place which is intended to present the album as if being played in another room.
“I made something for all you isolators out there,” Parker’s said on social media. “I call it ‘The Slow Rush In An Imaginary Place’. Headphones required for full immersive effect. See you in there.”
“Things have changed in Parker’s life since Currents, which was nominally a break-up album, the most obvious of those being his recent marriage to Sophie Lawrence,” our Slow Rush review reads.
“Signs of the obsessive letting life get in the way are not always obvious however, instead the singer ponders whether he’s still relevant at the grand old age of 34 on the lustrous It Might Be Time, while he chooses to re-examine his relationship with his father (who died in 2009) on the sober Posthumous Forgiveness.”
