Tame Impala New ‘Solitude Is Bliss’ Video

I remember having music videos on one day in the background- when these guys caught my eye. A full on trippy, physcadelic music video paired with some amazing sounds, un-like anything out there today with beautiful melodies. LOVED them instantly and have followed them ever since.

The music video for “Solitude is Bliss”, the first single from Tame Impala’s debut album InnerSpeaker premiered on Pitchfork yesterday and has gone on to become the site’s current ‘most viewed’ video.

Tame Impala are proud to announce their first ever US tour, supporting friends MGMT throughout May and June. The band will warm up for the US jaunt with a string of Australian dates and then spend a month on the road in the US, before returning to Australia to play a homecoming set at the Splendour In The Grass festival.

The band unveil their debut album InnerSpeaker stateside on June 8th, 2010. InnerSpeaker will be available digitally via iTunes and in CD, digital, and vinyl formats through the Mod Shop.
