great psychedelic sound, some tracks don‘t match my style, still impressive work + relatable lyrics

Recent reviews
I feel like this should be the bench mark for psych rock. I got into Tame Impala from his later projects so this album was never super special to me. But going back and listening to this after a while really surprised me how good it was. I realised Desire be Desire go was also on the self titled EP with a different mix. Overall pretty solid and isn’t overshadowed by his later projects I think.
Not one of his best, nowhere near being bad though.
