      I think he gets bored and just likes floating around on different instruments.

      because he’s so damn good on the keyboard.

    One thing I love about 9 is the return of this kind of energy, while also continuing to push more of the ambition of the last 2-3 records. Pink Lunettes basically feels like Nick's classic 0:44 moment stretched out into a full song

    • @moonhouse3540
      @moonhouse3540 Před 2 lety

    I love Jay as a drummer. I wish Tame Impala would record their albums live with him playing drums again, like on their first EP. His work on Wander is so tight (in both meanings of the word).

    Australia neglects its best artists, these guys need way more spotlight..

    • @billyshears441
      @billyshears441 Před 7 lety +3

      It aint just Australia. The whole world's music industry is completely fucked. Subject to political correctness and illuminati symbolism. Oh and the music has to be atonal and utterly boring. True musicians are not given a voice in the mainstream, no matter how good they are. These fellas know that, which is why they started Pond: They got sick of their newly-turned pop band Tame Impala.

    • @syrfrys
      @syrfrys Před 7 lety +6

    • @billyshears441
      @billyshears441 Před 7 lety +1

      syrfrys I never mentioned when Pond was formed...? But it gives them artistic freedom that they don't have with Tame Impala.

    • @DirtyWorldRecords1

      Billy Shears
      There will always be pop music dude, get over it. Music isn’t shit nowadays, there are plenty of great artists. Pond still has gotten TONS of recognition around the world despite having, in my opinion, a pretty niche sound. Just because they aren’t millionaires doesn’t mean somethings wrong with the industry, you simply can’t put a price in art.
