Sep 12, 2022This album is as if alien psych rock was a genre. Every song is a new experience, it's a 14 course meal of an album.
-
Aug 24, 2022If the beatles needed antidepressants and friends this is probably how they'd sound. Lonerism is an epic psychedelic rock record that like the title suggest explores loneliness though the relationships we hold. It's melodic, fresh and original. Higlights:feeps like we're only going backwards, be above it,apocalypse &elephant

Aug 15, 2022Kaleidoscopic views, pink unicorns, candy grass describe how psych the album really is. Kevin’s vocals, absurd riffs, orgasmic synths, and outstanding album percs makes the album my favorite album of all time.
-
May 13, 2022‘Lonerism’ - a beautiful piece of art created by the brilliant Kevin Park.

Jan 13, 2022With the cover and the vibe, Time Impala will always be a nostalgic comeback to my tumblr years. It is chill, very well balanced and slightly psychedelic, but just to the right level.

May 25, 2020Brilliant album. Great guitars, good songwriting, Still their best album although all the others are great too.
-
Feb 23, 2020There are some great tunes on here: Apocalypse Dreams, Mind Mischief, Sun's Coming Up, and of course Elephant. Nothing is really a 'miss' but some tunes aren't as strong as others. Feels Like We Only Go Backwards is also a strong song, and is also more accessible to a larger audience, but is foreshadowing of where Tame Impala could, and eventually will go... more pop.

Nov 22, 2019incrível. Lonerism é uma nova roupagem para o som criado pelos Beatles e Pink Floyd na era do rock psicodélico. Essa forte influência resulta em um dos melhores discos do século XXI.

Sep 16, 2019Great.Its four A.M right now and I'm not gonna do a review properly.............

Aug 11, 2019This album is near perfect in every way. Production quality is ahead of its time, yet simultaneously nostalgic. Melodically, rhythmically, it pushes boundaries that no other band of this generation is capable of crossing. Kevin Parker managed to surpass the expectations he built with Innerspeaker.

Jul 27, 2019it seems like I find something new every-time I listen incredible album, one of the most cum worthy albums of the decade
-
May 7, 2019Definitely one of the best albums of the decade so far. Incredibly catchy since the first sentence ("gotta be above it"). I would say it's a big trip between psychedelia, electronic pop and a little of stoner rock riffs.
-
Feb 11, 2019Lonerism mixes the Beatles' fresh pop appeal with the couple of layers which lets experience absolutely immersive, gorgeous and soul-washing. Although some tracks doesn't know hour of stopping, listening doesn't gets committed, because of album has much more offering.

Sep 29, 2018"Lonerism" é um álbum muito bem produzido, coerente e poderoso, inspirado no rock clássico que te leva a uma nova jornada alucionadora, através de ambientes sonoros complexos e intrigantes. Cada faixa deixa-nos completamente de queixo caído. Um dos melhores de 2012 e um dos melhores da era do pop psicodélico.

Sep 7, 2015Lonerism is a great album that uses psychedelic music in order to create something new and intriguing. It's a rock record, but also a pop one since there are catchy melodies that are hard to forget.

Aug 3, 2015Lonerism is a current day masterpiece. All of the tracks work together to create what is not only a revival of psychedelic music, but a completely revitalized, updated and modern version of it.
-
Jan 12, 2015Rich, lavish, eclectic and fresh. More powerful than the 'inner speaker' album delivering Pink Floyd ambience with at times Lennon-like vocals and a sprinkling of T-Rex, all wrapped up in a modern synth rock blanket of luscious sound. A fabulous album from these Aussie lads that will touch upon all avid music lovers around the world. Highly recommended.
-
Nov 16, 2014Takes the ideas of Innerspeaker to a new level, and will certainly be tough for them to top. Overall an impressive CD that will be on repeat in my life for a long, long time. (Bonus points for the iTunes inclusion of "Led Zeppelin" song)

Aug 2, 2014This material makes you fly and travel to a thousand different worlds; and all of them feel oblivious, fluorescent and, most of all, perfectly flawless.
-
Aug 2, 2014Absolutely the album of 2012, maybe even better than Kendricks GKMC. Innerspeaker had some pretty weak tracks and the production wasn't quite as good as it is here.
-
Aug 2, 2014Even though this album is definitely the more pop-friendly mainstream side of indie, it's really good. Every tracks stands out, the instrumentation is so fleshed out and some tracks kick ass.

Dec 21, 2012The titles and lyrics form a kind of manifesto of loneliness, elevating self-doubt and even insecurity into badges of honour. He struggles but, with the music growing all around him like a protective cushion, we only hear the sound of a deep, blissful sigh.
-
Dec 4, 2012The band's latest, Lonerism, digs even deeper into those themes and sounds [early-'70s psychedelia, proto-metal, and British pop], and pulls out a masterful collage.
-
Dec 3, 2012Tame Impala saves itself from mere revivalism with 21st-century self-consciousness and, tucked amid the swirl and buzz, touching confessions of insecurity.
