Video: Tame Impala | Lucidity

Tame Impala's latest release "Innerspeaker" is already placing high on our year's best and now the band has just released their video for 'Lucidity'. The band will be in town on December 1st at Emo's with Stardeath and White Dwarfs and Kuroma. They are playing inside which is pretty shocking. I would expect this to either get moved to the larger stage or sell out. Get on it.

SXSW Spotlight: Kuroma

Kuroma is a band more people should be writing about in the near future. Our good buddy Aaron introduced us to them a few weeks back and w've been digging them ever since.

Kuroma is a project of Hank Sullivant, a former member of The Whigs and one-time touring guitarist of MGMT. While a member of The Whigs, Sullivant recorded a number of trippy, psychedelic-influenced demos, including a number of tracks that would ultimately find their way onto the Kuroma release Paris. After leaving MGMT just after last year's SXSW he resumed focus on Kuroma, now officially comprising of drummer Ben DuPriest (formerly of The Pendletons) and bassist Nick Robbins (ex-Velveteen Pink).

They don't have a Myspace (on purpose) but they do believe in having an official site, which has eight songs up on it. I personally like "Searching For A Sheep" and "I Was A Rat".
