Tame Impala's Lonerism, here on CD, is the 2012 album where Kevin Parker's bedroom psychedelia went widescreen, all fuzz, phasing and lonely heart.
Parker wrote, played and produced nearly everything himself, then handed the mixing to Dave Fridmann. Following Innerspeaker, it sharpened his love of sixties psych and seventies pop into proper songs and turned a cult Australian act into one of the most influential psych-pop projects of the decade.
Feels Like We Only Go Backwards is the obvious crown jewel, a swirling, melancholy chorus that refuses to leave your head. Elephant stomps in on a glam-rock riff, Apocalypse Dreams builds from a jaunty piano figure into a cosmic rush, and Mind Mischief has a woozy, wobbling charm that sums up the whole record.
Thematically, it lives up to its title: songs about feeling outside the crowd, watching other people connect while you drift further inward. Yet the sound is anything but withdrawn, packed with hooks, blown-out drums and synths that seem to melt as they play, every layer arranged with obsessive care.
More than a decade on, it still sounds like the moment modern psych rediscovered its pop instincts, and a reminder of just how much one restless musician from Perth could conjure on his own.
