Fourth studio album by the Australian singer-songwriter Tame Impala (Kevin Parker). 'The Slow Rush' was recorded between Los Angeles and Parker's studio in his hometown of Fremantle, Australia. The album is Parker's deep dive into the oceans of time, conjuring the feeling of a lifetime in a lightning bolt, of major milestones whizzing by while you're looking at your phone, it's a paean to creation and destruction and the unending cycle of life. Review: Mesmerizing Sonic Journey: Tame Impala's 'The Slow Rush' Shines with Brilliance and Depth - Tame Impala's 'The Slow Rush' is a 5-star masterpiece that showcases Kevin Parker's evolution as a musician and producer. This album takes listeners on a mesmerizing sonic journey filled with lush melodies, intricate rhythms, and introspective lyrics. One of the standout tracks on the album is 'Borderline,' with its infectious groove and catchy hooks that make it an instant classic. The song effortlessly blends elements of disco and funk, creating a dynamic and danceable vibe that is impossible to resist. Another highlight is 'Breathe Deeper,' which captivates with its pulsating beat, ethereal synths, and uplifting lyrics. It's a song that transports you to another dimension, encouraging you to let go and embrace the moment. However, not every track on 'The Slow Rush' hits the mark equally. While the album as a whole is cohesive and compelling, there are a few songs that may not resonate as strongly with all listeners. 'One More Hour' stands out as one of the weaker tracks, with its meandering structure and lack of a clear musical hook. While it still possesses Parker's signature dreamy sound, it doesn't quite reach the same heights as some of the other tracks on the album. Despite this minor flaw, 'The Slow Rush' remains a stellar achievement that solidifies Tame Impala's status as one of the most innovative and exciting acts in modern music. With its rich production, infectious melodies, and thought-provoking lyrics, this album is a must-listen for fans old and new. From the euphoric highs of 'Lost in Yesterday' to the introspective depths of 'Posthumous Forgiveness,' 'The Slow Rush' is a sonic journey that rewards repeated listens and cements its place as a modern classic. Review: Sorcery. - Five years is the time between 'The Slow Rush' and stunning 2015 ‘Currents' album; which after two albums before the aforementioned led to making Kevin Parker a lyrical, sound and production powerhouse. His work influenced a multitude of artists and his production skills were heavily lauded and coveted. On album four Parker still retains his Bee Gee-esque vocals as the addition to his plethora of hip-hop, electronic, psychedelic, funk, dance and soulful melodies. This is his most popish album to date, at a running length of 57 minutes that spends more time wandering in and around through a labyrinth of synths and diffused soft-rock. It feels like one hour-long song or soundtrack that never really stops. Parker also has a unique way of making you lose yourself in a song so delicately and deeply that he then throws in a myriad of unique changes into those tracks as an anchor, makes you remember where you are, leading back on course after a short detour. The name of the album is apt - a slow rush; just enjoy what happens, go with the flow and any other description that you find pertinent. There’s a meticulous nature of the obsessive with Parker and it shows here more than any other album - Parker works with a range of musicians but this is entirely his baby. His credits are printed firmly with the line “All music written, performed, and mixed by Kevin Parker.” He divides the album into almost environmental tones, with elements that sound very cityscape, some underground, and some sounding like beach summery fun. This is one of the most complex albums made, finely crafted cogs in a massive arrangement to form the entire cohesive sound. This body of work also allows Parker to stretch himself more, whether being held back creatively or the ambivalence of another album, he used that hesitation and twisted it and exposed it like a nerve. Choosing to exercising vexations; using his unease as he stated in an NME interview: “Even with this album, I was doing things that made me uncomfortable just for the purpose of being creative because I’m the most creative when I’m uncomfortable.” The amount of focus is intrinsic to this album more than at any time before, too much and you get lost in it all, if that is your goal, too little and you wish for something more. It feels like a warm fireplace that radiates heat and light but also snaps and crackles and makes unusual noises that arrest your eyes and ears. In so far as being music for moods it’s right up there as one of the best, this is Pop and Psychedelic genre twisting sorcery to its finest.

Heard about Tame Implala quite by chance.
Heard about Tame Impala quite by chance so looked them up. I heard two songs and then ordred two CDs. Love both CDs, 'The Slow Crush' and 'Currents'

2nd time lucky with the 2LP edition
More poppy and melodic than early efforts for better or worse (i am a sucker for melodies though!) but not a 5 star album like Currents this is still excellent. It took two purchases to get a clean defect free copy. The first was perfect in terms of disc one but disc two and side C in particular (as shown in the pictures) was too noisy due to groove defects (non fill/stitching). The second copy is groove defect free if a smidge warped but it now matches the disc 1 and this is everything i expect of 180g audiophile premium vinyl.... SILENT and wonderful of playback. So YMMV as ever but if you get a top copy it will be one to cherish assuming you too love the music!

Some of his best work to date
Don't know why the negative reviews. Life changes people change. That includes Kevin Parker. His music has changed get over it. People striving for inner speaker or lonerism sound this is not it. I love the old tame and the new tame get used to it or listen to someone else. 5⭐ from me

Tame Impala, what's not to like?!
Been listening to Tame Impala since I first heard "Let It Happen" and been listening and enjoying every new track that's been released ever since and also going through the back catalogue too. I had given up on new music some years ago and these guys showed me that there is still some music out there worth listening too!

Edition de l'album en double vinyle, pochette gatefold. Le fil conducteur de cet album est l'utilisation de l'effet "phaser", puisqu'on le retrouve sur la totalité des titres de cet album. Très bon exercice de style, n'en déplaise aux déçus de l'album, on retrouve une décennie "70s" très bien analysée & ré-interprétée dans cet album : du progressif début 70s au plus dansant fin70s mais, comme à chaque fois, un petit clin d'oeil qui rappelle que cet album est contemporain. Il est clair que cela peut étonner, surprendre (décevoir ?) certains auditeurs (on retrouve même un peu de tb303 saturée sur un titre) mais cet album a été produit avec soin & finesse. En somme, un très bon album & définitivement un album phare.

The Slow Rush klingt wie Retro-Pop und Disco der späten 70er- und 80er-Jahre, aber mit moderner Studio-Perfektion: warme Synth-Flächen, pumpende Bass-Lines, knackige Drums und viel Chorus- und Phaser-Glanz. Der Sound wirkt zugleich sonnenverblasst und neonhell, nostalgisch ohne Kostüm. Gerade diese polierte Vintage-Ästhetik macht das Album so leichtfüßig und hypnotisch.
