In a dream collab, our very own Tame Impala has teamed up with Thundercat for the synth-funk jam “No More Lies”.
A musical match made in heaven, the duo of Bruner (Thunder) and Parker (Tame) is an electrifying union. With “No More Lies”, the pair hits the sweet spot between their two individual, complementary styles with laser accuracy. Their melodic synchronicity belies this love lament, with Thundercat musing on a doomed relationship for which he takes responsibility: “But it’s not your fault, I’m just kind of ass”. The song culminates in a candid monologue from the bassist questioning the sense of honesty being the best policy in relationships: “I tell you the truth because I care, but I also lie to you because I care”.
The collaboration is a first for the respective Sydney and L.A. natives, and is also Thundercat’s first release in three years. Speaking of the collaboration he said, “I’ve wanted to work with Kevin since the very first Tame Impala album.” “I feel that I knew that us working together would be special. I’ve been excited about this song for a long time and hope to create more with Kevin in the future.” We sure hope they do, too.
The song was released ahead of Thundercat’s Australian tour in June, where he’ll be playing Sydney’s Vivid Festival (June 4th), Hobart’s Dark Mofo Festival (June 9th), Melbourne’s Rising Festival (June 10th), and a standalone show in Brisbane at The Tivoli.
