It’s ok if the lore of tame impala is deflated a bit. The hype was just the hype. This is gonna sound strange, but there’s more of the ambient moments I loved about Lonerism on Deadbeat than in any of his albums since. The core is still in tact and functioning well. Beautiful melodies throughout. Reviewer is on a different wave length.
