I've had the Tame Impala album and EPs for a while now, but it wasn't until taking an 8-hour train ride from Portland to Vancouver with the Aussie gents blasting through my giant headphones that I really became hooked. Riding alongside the water and through the mountains, it was the perfect soundtrack: wild, flanger-effected guitars, wavy tremolo vocals, a deep pounding bass, and most importantly, where most psychadelic music veers off into drug-induced oblivion, Tame Impala drive and propel obsessively forward with uptempo and focused drumming. I've been especially digging this acid-washed Midnight Juggernauts cover—the simple, repeatable and quick to please "Vital Signs."
