Am I the only one who thought this album was a huge disappointment in comparison to the other two?

Am I the only one who thought this album was a huge disappointment in comparison to the other two?

some of their absolute best songs but really inconsistent

Yes

Like, I haven't once seen a similar viewpoint. Here it's usually "they suck and I hate all of it" shitposting, and everywhere else they have a rabid fanbase of millennials ready to lap up anything KP puts out.

I for one really like the Innerspeaker and Lonerism, but this one just feels like a slap in the face.

It's the only tame impala album I actually like. Only track off previous albums I liked was elephant

No, but I disagree.


Currents is my absolute favorite of their albums, and tied for my favorite album of all time.

I don't dislike their other albums.

Hell Lonerism is in my top 20 or so.

But Currents has the best overall cohesiveness and impact for me

You must be new, this albums was really unpopular here when it came out. I think its ok, but upon multiple revisits, I still think Lonerism is a lot better. I've always found innerspeaker to be pretty forgettable personally

This album is so flimsy. Standards are low.

Not trying to call them sellouts period, but especially with the lyrics, it seemed like they wrote the album for the preppy teenager demographic with which they grew in popularity leading up to it

I agree the lyrics are more accessible, but they're also one of the reasons it's one of my favorite albums because I relate to it hardcore.

Helped me in some difficult times

I'm not necessarily new, but I've been coming to Sup Forums a lot more in recent weeks.

Lonerism is great still, imo. Innerspeaker I liked a lot at first, but the un-fleshed-out songwriting has kind of brought my opinion of it down lately. Currents just irritates me because it seemed to me that a newer band - that I really liked for once - took their "fresh and interesting" direction on to the synthpop route that I think has been done to death.

if this album "helps you" you must have the emotional depth of a puddle.

Why you gotta be like that user

No because it got worse reviews than their previous albums

Yeah, but only marginally.

i felt the same, the best sounding song on the album just stops after 30 seconds and youre like "...wat" then the other bits still have tints of the tame impala you loved but its just taped onto a big machine that is generating electronic bullshit. they always had synths but this was some next level EDM shit

I have over 100 plays of songs from this album according to last.fm and i still have trouble remembering the majority of the tracks at all.

Let It Happen is one of their best tracks though.

Not even the best track on the album.

I’d give it a mid 5 out of 10

oh fuck off it's you again. listen to more music you absolute pleb

Can't really remember any other track on the album other than the played-to-death singles

I listen to a lot of music.
Still one of my favorites.

Stay mad.

more like lame impala... am i right? huh eh eh
