"Feels Like We Only Go Backwards" - Tame Impala

I'm a Tame Impala fanatic, they're almost definitely my favorite band/artist with a debut album 2010 (Innerspeaker) or later. There are many songs I could go with my first Tame Impala feature but lately I've really been into "Feels Like We Only Go Backwards" a whole lot. This is one of their/his (Tame Impala is Kevin Parker, in the studio anyway) most popular songs and for very good reason. It's a stone cold classic. It doesn't get as tripped out as some of other songs on the brilliant 2012 album Lonerism but it is a delicious slice of catchy psychedelic pop/rock.

"Sense" - King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard

You can't go wrong with starting off with King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard one of the best and definitely the most prolific modern psychedelic rock bands around. They do so many different styles and have released so many albums that it may be difficult to pick out just one tune to share but I've always loved "Sense" from the first time I heard it.

and this live version from 2019 in Dallas, Texas is pretty awesome too: 

Sharing My Favorite Modern Psychedelic Rock Songs

I've created this little blog to share some of my favorite modern psychedelic rock songs. By "modern" I mean anything released since 1990 but I'll be focusing on more recent stuff. My definitions of "psychedelic" and "rock" are also just as liberal as my definition of "modern." To me "psychedelic" is any music that has that kind of trippy vibe - I know it when I hear it - and "rock" isn't just big guitars, or any guitars for that matter. A decent example of where I'm coming from is I still consider Tame Impala's Currents to be a "psychedelic rock" album - even though it's quite pop and quite synthy.
