Tame Impala are a psychedelic rock band from Australia who recently put out their acclaimed second record, Lonerism (TMT Review), on Modular Recordings. It made #37 on our Favorite 50 Albums of 2012 list. More importantly, though, they’re ready for some foooooooootbaaaaaaallllll! That’s why they’re coming to North America for a headlining tour. While I’m sure they’ll enjoy the shows, you know they’re more interested in watching some of that good old fashioned American pigskin.
Unfortunately, they are not coming here at the right time. The football season concludes at the beginning of February, while Tame Impala will start their tour in the middle of that same month. Very sad, very bad timing if they wanted to watch some football. Go to one of their shows if you would like to see some sad Australian guys. Also, go there if you want to hear some pretty great neo-psychedelic songs. Now, come on, let’s go throw the football.
