"What's ended up being one of my most played albums of the last month or so is Tame Impala's Slow Rush. It was the last album I went out to a record store to buy before the lockdown restrictions were introduced, and I've had it on repeat for a large part of it.
The quality of production, arrangement and sound design in Parker's fourth album is excellent, building on that already present in previous 'Currents'. This collection of disco-tinged-psychedelic-rock songs culminates in what is track of the album for me - appropriately titled 'On Track'. A slow, gritty piano breakdown merged with French house organs, it summarises this record's inability to be characterised under one particular genre."
