Feb 14, 2020This album is an absolute masterpiece. Kevin Parker is a genius. He reimagined himself and his sound so perfectly.

Feb 15, 2020This album is so magical. Love the production. Lyrical content is very good. Kevin never disappoints, the album is so cohesive and smooth.
-
Feb 17, 2020Kevin Parker managers to produce an (arguably) better pop album than Currents while retaining his signature psychedelic sound.
-
Feb 16, 2020Kevin delivers again. I am sure it is going to be one of the best albums of the year. He has been able to re-imagine his sound while still keeping the distinctiveness that made him one of the best artists of the decade. My favorite songs: Borderline (album version is so much better), Posthumous Forgiveness, Tomorrow's Dust, On Track (best one overall), Is It True, and One More Hour.

Feb 15, 2020Fantastic album. Even better than Currents somehow. Not one weak track. It was awesome to see Kevin reinvent his sound once again. Going to be hard to beat this for AOTY. (My opinion of course)
-
Mar 9, 2020Not as strong of an album as the last release "Currents" but still an overall solid album in Kevin Parker and Tame Impala's catalog
-
Feb 14, 2020Die hard fans of their old rock stuff can’t seem to handle that the bands changed. It’s still an amazing record.

Feb 17, 2020Once I heard 'Lost in Yesterday' and 'Borderline', I knew I was in for some alt goodness, and did the album deliver! One, if not the only, of Tame Impala's only albums I can actually listen to from start to finish. Masterpiece 9.5/10
-
Feb 17, 2020Another great showing from Kevin Parker. He continues on from Currents, expanding his catalog of pop music, while still sprinkling his signature style and sonic diligence in each song. Lets Dance!

Feb 14, 2020A very good album in general! I have to disagree though with anyone who said that The Slow Rush is better than Currents. The latter is still my favorite from Kevin Parker's project. However, the new album is already one of the best of 2020!

Feb 20, 2020The only song that doesn't land for me is instant destiny, the rest of this album is a psychedelic masterpiece. Make sure to listen with some good bassy speakers
-
Feb 21, 2020"The Slow Rush" may not hit the addictive highs of "Currents" but its expansiveness makes it feel cohesive, immersive and more of an experience rather than a collection of songs.

Feb 17, 2020I am loss for words to describe how much I adore work of Parker! His music is extraordinary and one of a kind! Each song impressed me from its first seconds, there is a definite progress and some new sounds in this album! was worth all the wait and I hope to hear him live!
-
Feb 19, 2020This a good follow up to the album Currents. Not as good as currents BUT that’s not saying much because of how good currents is. The slow rush is a great album

Feb 17, 2020Fantastic album. My only problem is that it maybe doesn't have the hard hitting sound of past songs but then again this album can cater do a different audience and mood than their past albums. A must listen
-
Feb 14, 2020This is such an experience. I still haven’t recovered from it. It’s a psychedelic trip you haven’t heard from Tame Impala yet and that’s saying something!
-
Mar 2, 2020Though rarely rising above functional on a lyrical level, Kevin Parker digs deep musically to deliver a dense, entrancing mix of prog-pop tunes, putting an intriguing glittery disco twist on his signature brain-bending psychedelia to great effect.
Choice Cuts: "One More Year", "Posthumous Forgiveness", "Breathe Deeper" -
Mar 27, 2020At first i gave this album a 7-8. But this album will grow on you the more you listen and as you dive into the lyrics. I really enjoy this album every time i listen to it.
-
Feb 14, 2020This album is smooth and infectious. Kevin takes the necessary steps after Currents to create a melodic and summer fun album and executes it perfectly. Songs like Instant Destiny and Tomorrow's Dust will have you wanting to listen again and again. 10/10.

Feb 16, 2020Masterpiece, better than currents in my opinion, breath deeper os the most brilliant song in the album, the groovy is out of this world
-
Feb 19, 2020Even though this album doesn’t have as much of the classic psychadelic sounds like the earlier albums, I still absolutely love it. The synth, drums, bass and everything creates such unique sound like nothing I’ve heard before. 10/10

Mar 25, 2020Unfortunately, after years of anticipation, the reveal is an overtly tedious shell of everything Parker has ever charmed into existence. In fact, tedious may be an understatement.
-
Mar 23, 2020It is immaculate music, loaded with little side roads and detours, and I will listen to it probably hundreds of times, but there’s that little something missing, that dagger to my chest, that shiver up my spine that I thought would hit me long before now.
-
Mar 19, 2020His knack for alchemising an engrossing trip hasn’t deserted him yet.
