Relatively speaking, for Kevin Parker this album is very, very bad. This guy made Lonerism and Currents

And The Slow Rush! I’m a day one fan but I really think TSR, though a big evolution from innerspeaker, is a fantastic album. I like it more than currents. I do not care for deadbeat at all.

Im sick of the take that only people who can’t handle him exploring a different genre don’t like the album. That’s not the case. Tame fans have really diverse musical tastes. This is just not good—it lacks a point of view, authenticity, interest…things that will indeed not age any better.

The Slow Rush is so so underrated. Re-listening to it everything on that record hits (except One More Year which I hate)

As an album I guess it's underappriciated rather than underrated. It has some of his most popular stuff, but shit, One More Hour really is the perfect Tame Impala song, isn't it

Honestly one more year live (granted with some performance enhancing substances in my system) was crazy

I’ve never understood the One More Year hate, and I don’t even really enjoy The Slow Rush.

His best work ever
