VIDEO: Tame Impala - Lucidity

Here's the genuinely, physically, cosmic new video for the psychedelic sensation that is Tame Impala, and their dropped-shoulder furrow-grooved track Lucidity.  The video is directed by Robert Hales
who directed promos for Gnarles Barkley's Crazy, and Nine Inch Nail's Starfuckers Inc.amongst loads of other things.

They're coming to the UK in October, but only playing three dates. Birmingham 02 Academy on the 26th with Manic Street Preachers and British Sea Power - where I would seriously expect Tame Impala to blow those away; then Manchester Ruby Lounge on the 27th, and Heaven,London on the 28th.  Not enough dates.

Back to the video, the label, Modular gives these details away:


"Shot outside the country town of Mildura, 500 odd kilometres from Melbourne, the "Lucidity" video was a leap into the unknown, a series of experiments and blind faith launches into the final frontier, involving cameras being launched into space inside weather balloons, tracking all that went on below, including Tame Impala ripping through "Lucidity"."
