Tame Impala - Currents
- Page 1 of 1
Coming from someone who's not a fan of Tame Imapala and didn't like Lonerism outside of one or two songs, Currents is pretty great.
Coming from someone who is a Tame Impala fan....
I don't really like this album. There's nothing on here like Apocalyptic Dream from Lonerism.... I guess Parker thought it would be a great idea to just throw out all the awesome guitar work they did on previous albums and replace it with cheesy synth sounds.
Let It Happen remains dope.

I get that it isn't as guitar-heavy, but there are still a lot of great songs here.
By Moris Go To PostHaven't listened to any Tame Impala before. Just pressed play on Currents.Their live album also gets regular play from me.
I will say, the guitar lick on The Less I Know the Better is...
Warming up to parts of the album, but I still really wish it was more psychedelic rock esque like some of their previous work. Parker's voice reaches a much higher pitch in most of the songs versus their older stuff and I'm not a huge fan of that either. Sounds more Bee Gees than Lennon.

I don't want to dictate how we do things here. But seeing how dead the indie/pop music OT's already are, having seperate threads for albums will only make it worse :P
On topic, I'm really loving this album.

I think it's better this way to be honest, a lot of things get lost in the shuffle if they are posted in a barely active music thread.
If you think it's a great album worth sharing, I think it should get its own thread.

Yeah I guess there are two ways of looking at it. If everyone just uses that one music thread you'll actually have one active thread for music discussion. Now you a couple of RIP threads and some random album threads that will die after page 1 because we're a small community.

Considering SLAENT doesn't have subscriptions, it's difficult to keep up with big threads unless it's constantly being bumped to the top like NBA/Football/Halo. Digging through the categories and going out of your way to find a megathread is just not something I do.
With the individual threads, I'm at least able to see it on the front page.
True. Slaent really could do with a subscription function. I have the same issue as you with finding threads.

Either that or we could get some stickies on the biggest and bestest threads..
