For the fourth Tame Impala long player, and the first in 5 years, Kevin Parker presented his latest album The Slow Rush, an offering to the great unknown majesty of time. In just under an hour Parker conjures the agony and ecstasy at the core of our finite being, its monumentality and mundanity, via an invigorating and vividly evocative dozen tracks. Employing sounds and styles to reach his own inimitable ends, with decades of popular music styles filtered through his singular psych lens, The Slow Rush bristles with ideas and pierces with sentiment, confirming Parker as one of the more artistically ambitious artists of his generation.
