The latest from Tame Impala and Pond’s Jay Watson smooths out the pastiche psych-rock and dials down the eccentricity to create a more seamless song cycle.

As expected, bleary-eyed psychedelic pop numbers are the main ingredient here.

One of the most impressive things about Tame Impala—apart from their three terrific full-length albums and mercurial live performances—is just how talented all members of the band have proven to be individually.
