>start playing pic related album
>a minute and a half of good music
>kevin parker starts singing
>turn it off
why does a good bass-line have to be bogged down by shitty singing and lyricism?
>>63554061
More like Lame Impala am I right?
Why are they so fucking good? Sometimes I cant decide between them (kevin parker) or deerhunter, but then i hear songs like this

The lyricism is like 4/10 but the vocals are coasting at 7/10.
Now LIVE Tame Impala vocals, holy fuck are they shite.
>>63554271
you have no idea what you're talking about, kevin's studio vocals are 10/10. ill admit live he doesnt sound as good

I was talking about the opener to Innerspeaker specifically. In general his studio vocals can be pretty great.
>>63554330
>>63554357
also the bass for feels like we only go backwards is killer. kevin's bass work is very reminiscent of paul mccartney abbey road-era
>>63554357
i was talking about his singing in general. its the worst falsetto ive ever heard
when i say "good bass-line bogged down by shitty singing and lyricism" im talking about the band in general.
>>63554437
Shitty voices are better for music because they sound more sincere and realistic. It's why people like Lou Reed even though he was a terrible singer
>>63554410
They do have a very Beatles-esque sound, though the drums make me thing more of Nick Mason than Ringo Starr
>>63554622
>though the drums make me thing more of Nick Mason than Ringo Starr
you sure cuz kevin set up his drums to sound like ringo abbey road-era, as did a lot of bands like the flaming lips for the soft bulletin.

tfw I still really like from my early days of being a hipster
>>63554089
classic Montie
>>63554845
so 2013 when you were 18?
I absolutely hate this fucking lyric. I don't know why but every time I hear it pisses me.
>>63554165
Shit album, Innerspeaker is better
>>63554762
>>63554824
Kind of a long build up but I kekd tbhfam. I always got more of an it's all too much vibe tho, at least for innerspeaker
>>63554978
Same here bud.
Why does /mu/ hate Tame Impala again? Who cares if they're enjoyed by a lot of 'dude lsd' kinds of people. I personally do not care if a vocalist has a bad voice, anon you're doing yourself a disservice by not giving this song a chance at least.

Because they're a basic pop bad that relies too heavily on repetitve melodies that only teen girls could get into. If I wanted to listen to a song similar to the link you posted, I could just listen to Pink Floyd. Far better quality with much more universal accalim.
Their drummer and bassist are so fucking good.
>>63556059
>he thinks anyone that isn't Kevin actually write the things they play
>>63555981
kill yourself
>>63556133
>he can't counter bait
get that weak shit outta here
i bet you'd get the lyrics wrong if you attended one of their concerts
>>63556191
i don't have the energy to meme right now, it's late
>>63556191
but check the digits though you faggot

How well received an album is shouldn't matter that much. Yeah, some of their songs have repetitive pop melodies. But to label them a basic pop band is contestable and gives me the impression that you're only familiar with Currents or the singles from their albums actually worth listening to.
>>63554165
Man this song really shows how horrible Kevin's vocals are
>>63555981
/mu/ literally loved their second album, then they became too famous to be indie cool and new fags hate on them big time
>>63554089

Opinion discarded

You'll surprise me everyday, if an artist is shit on stage he is worth nothing.
For example I once listened to "kiss the anus of a black cat" and I tought they were okay enough. So when they played in my city I figured out that they'll be better live than studio like most of the bands I saw. And I was so fucking wrong, worst concert of my life, I can't describe how much it was shit. I deleted they're album the next day. And I lost like 20 $ to see their shit show.
I never saw tame impala live and I never will because I don't like them but I saw deerhunter live and they were ON FUCKING POINT ! Deerhunter was an Incredible experience live, far better than the album.
>>63558613
>dude this contrarian band's way better bro even if no one knows them :DDD
>>63554089
Yes desu
>>63558633
I listen to music for my own pleasure and that's all that count for me. I do not care about what people think and I rarely talk about music anyway. If you want to believe that i'm just some kind of hipster shit well you can.
But when I listen at tame impala it awfully sounds like pretentious prick and overrated music.
If they didn't get as big as they are now you all would be sucking Kevin's dick
>>63557782
you fell for the meme
>>63554978
the amount of people i hear saying this shit is so deep makes me want to fucking kill myself
