Tame Impala are a three piece psychedelic rock band from Perth, Western Australia. The band consists of Kevin Parker (lead guitar and vocals), Dominic Simper (bass guitar) and Jay Watson (drums and backing vocals). Their name refers to the impala, a medium sized antelope. Their musical sound draws from a wide range of influences (most notably Jefferson Airplane and Germany’s Colour Haze) and they like to see themselves as “a steady flowing psychedelic groove rock band that emphasizes dream-like melody.” The band signed a worldwide deal with boutique label Modular Recordings in mid 2008.

"A steady flowing psychedelic groove rock band that emphasizes dream-like melody" couldn't describe their sound any better. New album should be released in January or February 2010 if my memory is correct. I have been listening to the EP since it first came out, I cannot wait any longer!!

Damn they have such a great fuzz sound. Id love to see them live. Yet, I refuse to go to Big Day Out on principal. Ill be down in Sydney during that time to see the Mars Volta and The Horrors side shows, so hopefully Tame Impala do one too.

i also saw them at the living end concert in melbourne...they were fairly average, although at the time the only song i knew was half full glass of wine. could barely hear the vocals as well. but on the positive side, the drummer is frickin amazing.

why is every australian band tagged with 'australian'? you don't go tagging bands from the us with 'amercian', do you now.

A few sound issues last night at Karova too but they put on a good show. Loved it actually, if you haven't seen them live you should do your best to get along to a show.

They were great in Adelaide Just too short and sweet. And they didn't play their cover of Angel. Heard it on triple j and it was amazing. Loved their sound though, looking forward to Big Day Out.

I saw these guys supporting The Living End in May, not a fan, a pretty poor performence IMO.

To Sammww, although I havent been to a Tame Impala gig, the videos I have seen have been very saddening. I see no dancing, not even movement in general! What is going on?!
