[@mrpotatocunt2917]

In terms if origin...

[@ethanoreilly2002]

The best side of tame impala!!

[@micaela7159]

Ethan Bennett yup

[@louismasar6147]

He was clearly always meant for greatness 😎

[@gretagarbo9926]

The man of many minds and voices..Sounds

[@jaimecarrasco7177]

So fucking good, so fucking good man, so fucking good.

[@Iwasthewalrus]

Jaime Carrasco You could say that again...

[@slightlydelic1947]

It sounds like the early '70s in here.

[@flavy1000]

Thought the same =)

[@fauximpala7540]

Very late 60s Cream and Beatles is the vibe I get

[@luisarce9221]

Anybody else hears some of Ozzy's voice here?

[@JacobElordisBathWater]

Yes! Haha

[@luisarce9221]

+bree torious it's crazy how Kevin is able to embody all these musician's voices but it never seems like he's trying to rip them off, and the amounts of top notch production he adds to all of his music, he's truly one of the best musicians of this decade

[@JacobElordisBathWater]

+Luis Arce He really is

[@barbrapfeifer6900]

not just sabbath, and I'm pushing 50.

[@HalibasterDillibickus]

bree torious Fuckin rad, I see you commenting on quite a bit of dank music. Rock the fuck on.

[@jessiscorpius]

How am I just now listening to pre Tame?!? Glad I’m here now🔥

[@massielcorona420]

mother of god i just found these jewels and im so happy i did

[@DannyJustiniano]

That's Kev's voice?!?! :O Can we have more of this again please?

[@darikai219]

He was young Dingo here. 20?

[@Jasperi]

@@darikai219 He would have been 17 or 18

[@k-leb4671]

Yeah as much as I love Tame Impala, I feel like Kevin has narrowed his voice down to an annoying degree; going for the same octaves, tones, embellishments, whatever. It's a bit tiring on Currents and the Slow Rush in particular.

[@cathal3290]

So true songs like half full glass of wine you can hear he uses his voice differently but never sings like that again it's frustrating

[@someguymakingvideoz9854]

@@k-leb4671 yea, in the 2010 acoustic innerspeaker performance he used a lot more technique and emotion in his vocals compared to the acual innerspeaker album. He still could probably sing like that if he wanted to. Maybe not to the best degree though.

[@flavy1000]

Much more 70´s like stuff..Some Hendrix or Cream here...nice to know about this side of great musicians!

[@hartzinfps152]

Sabbath as well

[@someguymakingvideoz9854]

I'm White Stripes Vibes personally

[@blubfishuwaaa]

the dee dee dums were the 70s, tame impala was the 60s kevins just travelling back in time

[@hanselleos9718]

2:48 to 3:00 Pure Epicness. Amazing harmonies

[@redwithblackstripes]

[@IsaacRossMusic1]

Kevin Parker as an 18 year old Delinquent

[@Fluffyducky2]

This one is freaking awesome! Thank you so much for uploading it! How many more do you have to upload? I'm really, really looking forward to hearing the rest of them. Thanks again! :-)

[@Fredrickwayde]

YAY!

[@mauroquiroz1656]

joder parece su voz a ozzy? Lennon tambien este tío es un genio

[@Seemuut]

holy moly, perfect!

[@rickenbacker40011]

is this really kevin singing? I refuse to believe it, not one phrase in it sounds like he usually does XP

[@TheGhostPortal]

+rickenbacker40011 He's in his early days before he started using falsetto kinda like Dan Auerbach

[@BrowseJamesBro]

+rickenbacker40011 It's Wolfmothers Andrew Stockdale.

[@flavy1000]

..I dare say falseto + some Fx kinda delay or a bit of phase through his mic mix? Anyway, this sounds more dark, and the falsetto stule is kinda more ...sweet to the ears..Both are great!

[@rickenbacker40011]

flavy1000 most certainly, It is very good

[@donna25871]

No it’s Kevin sounding like Andrew Stockdale from Wolfmother. At the time this EP was recorded Wolfmother were big (in fact as big as they got...damn Andrew and his narcissistic qualities because they wrecked the band. Imitation is flattery. Anyway both bands ended up on the same record label for a while.

[@dylang-s3821]

recording sounds better than some of the songs on his ep

[@micaela7159]

true

[@JH4RPlp]

lol

[@dartic309]

Let me guess... Desire be desire go?

[@rcspv]

the picture is moving

[@alejandroleyvavillarello3617]

[@outrocanal8167]

well noted

[@Chickenbone263]

renato cruz santos or is it the acid

[@julianax5934]

You're on drugs

[@adammzain]

Hey it's the guy who uploaded mind mischief ducktails remix

[@yocarlosc6289]

So fucking good.

[@thefoxialbunny]

Where is the John Lennons' voice?

[@thefoxialbunny]

I'm totally fan of them, but the true is: probally he puts that tone on.

[@HarveyKarate]

+Fox Fields How do you know he wasnt putting on a normal voice on in this?

[@FattyAcids69]

+Fox Fields He changed his singing style as he matured and developed into tame impala, lol anyone can sing falsetto and their voice would sound much different. If you listen you can hear similiarities between this and his latest releases.

[@thefoxialbunny]

His voice sounds more falsetto in the new album. But ok. I love this band anyway.

[@Jasenleon]

+Fox Fields This is not just kevin singing

[@MEGAxBROSKI]

This sounds a shit ton like wolfmother.

[@sukimarek9407]

it does ! I think, I could be wrong but I think the dee dums came first? anyway, cool hey? :P

[@MrWurzeltroll]

Suki Marek the dee dee dums came first! :)

[@bigbenano]

Even if they came first! It's totally sounds like Wolfmother, or 'f you prefer Wolfmother sounds like The Dee Dee Sums. Anyway, that proves it exists an Australian sound, and it's damn so fucking good!!!

[@alexander.m96]

MrWurzeltroll Wolfmother were formed in 2000. 3 or 4 years before The Dee Dee Dums

[@l.e.k.v4094]

They formed before wolf!

[@rorywilliams361]

3:28 caught me off guard. Turned round and accidentally gave my mum a meaty hook

I keep telling people Wolfmother used to be good!

[@IsaacRossMusic1]
