Michael- I truly cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for me musically...

I am 24 years old and was introduced to this band by friends in college. Totally blew my freakin mind into the stratosphere... I came into music through my dad who loved all kinds of genres but mainly rock & roll- Beatles, Stones, The Dead, Floyd, Clapton, Zeppelin, Hendrix... anything from Emerson Lake & Palmer to Santana to Todd Rundgren to Talking Heads. He went to college in the 70s and I truly owe him everything...

This 'band', one Australian genius named Kevin Parker, felt like the equivalent of my generation's Beatles to me... The video I have selected is the 10th Year Anniversary of the Parker's debut album 'Innerspeaker'. All four of his albums are very psychedelic but this one takes the Psych-Rock cake by miles... Think Lennon in the height of 60's psychedelia with dreamy vocals, punchy drums, killer guitars riffs, spacey-phase drenched rhythms and basslines that needs to take a shower...

Favorite songs from video:
Runway Houses City Clouds [48:50] - incredible psych-rock jam**
Desire Be Desire Go [6:16]
Solitude Is Bliss [26:03]
It Is Not Meant To Be [00:36]

I cannot expressed how large of an impact this artist has had on my musical journey and exploration. Kevin Parker's music has evolved over every album- moving into more dreamy synth rock-pop with 'Lonerism' (my personal favorite) to more mainstream synth-pop & pysch-rock disco grooves with 'Currents' and 'The Slow Rush'. I cannot implore others enough to take a deep dive if they don't know already- a true renaissance man and inspiration, who forever changed the musical landscape for many artists to come...
