    Currents is Kevin Parker`s best sounding well produced album to date but Lonerism is his best album in terms of songwriting in my honest opinion.

      1. Lonerism - 10/10 - Best tracks: Apocalypse Dreams, Keep On Lying, Nothing That......., Mind Mischief
      2. Currents - 8/10 - Let It Happen, The Less I Know The Better, New Person, Same Old Mistakes
      3. Innerspeaker - 7.5/10 - Why Won't You Make Up Your Mind, Desire Be Desire Go

    And now Parker seems to be having trouble again finishing his current album. He says it's harder to be motivated when everything is going so good. Oh well, if it brings me half the joy Currents did, I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

    But after a break up last year, I listened to it again and this time the album another Color, the personal emotional connection to the album's theme took my love for it to the next level and it became one of my favourite records. ever.

    Holy Hell, I have said more than once that Tame Impala sounded like the Bee gees on Mushrooms. Tame Impala is my guilty pleasure. Most specifically "The Less I know The Better".

    Great review!!! I actually bought the collector's edition! I do prefer their previous albums more but this is still highly ranked for me. Saw them live in Chicago a couple years ago, and wow was it something. In 'Let It Happen' I love it when it changes at about minute 5, something about it. Nangs, one of my favorite tracks, is pretty stellar especially when it's about to drop into the drums you hear the slight bass which is sick. 'Yes, I'm Changing' another amazing track, when it goes into a dreamy dream (haha) at about minute 3, something about that part gets my heart pumping :) I'd go on, but surely you know how well Parker executed his music abilities on this album. (Also Disciples😍)
