Members DylanWilde Posted September 20, 2012 Members Share Posted September 20, 2012 I think Tame Impala's pretty great. They're derivative and a little heavy on the phaser and trippy echo effects (and to be honest, their production tends to be pretty bloated and overdone at times), but overall I think Kevin is a legitimately great young songwriter trying to find his voice - their stuff is beautifully arranged and works nicely, particularly on Innerspeaker. Since they've been mentioned in this thread (I hope ironically), Wolfmother, on the other hand may literally be one of the worst bands I've ever heard. Cheesy, poorly-made, cringe-worthy {censored} rock at its worst. I was hoping everyone had forgotten about them at this point, but sadly, that's not the case.

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted September 28, 2012 Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 Ordered... Oh yes! https://shop.modularpeople.com/lonerismdeluxe/ But geez, for not much more than that price last year Neon Indian included a mini-synth with their Deluxe package. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/...1#post43851555 I was hoping Lonerism would come with a mini-phaser or something.

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted October 3, 2012 Members Share Posted October 3, 2012 Originally Posted by pbone The album is streaming on NPR.org right now and it is {censored}ing mindblowing Been listening to it for the last week which I don't feel bad about since I just spent $80+ on the Deluxe Edition Definitely a milestone album... less bluesy Cream and Hendrix influenced than InnerSpeaker overall... more melodic and early 70s Glam. Definitely inspired me to pick up Todd Rundgren's A Wizard... A True Star, which I'd never bothered to listen to before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ToonHollow Posted October 3, 2012 Members Share Posted October 3, 2012 Been listening to this all week and gotta say... It's pretty good. This is the first time Tame Impala has felt like it's produced by one guy (guess "Lonerism" fits) whereas Innerspeaker has a full-band, larger scope in mind (but still just Kevin Parker). Definitely see the 70's glam, quasi-disco influence. Lonerism is solid, just not feeling a personal attachment like I did with Innerspeaker. Still buying it.

Both Ozzy and Lennon had a special effect device, but it can be 'easily' reproduced by modern technology. Read the Sound On Sound tutorials on the subject. I'm sure Phil wrote something related too.

Slapback delay or chorus should get you in the ballpark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot I wrote that comment, which in retrospect was way too harsh and I now completely disagree with. Innerspeaker sounded a bit too derivative to me the first couple listens, but it's a record I ended up loving. It's a really good album with a sound of it's own and a pop sensibility that many older psychedelic rock groups never had. Regarding the swedish psych, these are a couple of artists worth checking out: P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
