Barr accused the government of telling people that there was “no rush” for people to get vaccinated.

TAME IMPALA’S ‘THE SLOW RUSH’ IS BEAUTIFUL BUT PAPER THIN 'The Slow Rush' is pretty, and there's a lot of it. But given the band has already mastered that way of making music, is it really so crazy to hope that Parker and co. might one day try doing less? by Joseph Earp 14 February 2020__ __

Kevin Parker, the creative force behind Australian psych-rock heroes Tame Impala , has always had the same problem: he’s a perfectionist. That means agonisingly long wait times between records — devoted fans had to twiddle their thumbs for four years between the release of _Currents_, the album that cemented the band’s place in the pop culture firmament, and their newest work, _The Slow Rush_. But, more importantly, it also means that Parker is always at risk of buffing out the things that make him special. Left too long to his own devices, and the musician has a habit of sanding his songs down to nothing. The best Tame Impala songs feel dashed out and brief; the worst ones so pretty and belaboured as to barely exist at all. Unfortunately, it’s the latter mode that the band find themselves in throughout _The Slow Rush_, the sonic equivalent of gold-leaf printed wallpaper in an upscale hotel: baroque, beautiful, but utterly paper thin.Related
Tame
Impala Have Announced Their Biggest Australian Tour Ever Which doesn’t make it bad, exactly. Parker remains one of the most influential and important producers in the game, and the joy of hearing him tinker around in his studio like an obsessive grandfather working away in a backyard shed is still as thrilling as ever. ‘Is It True’, the record’s most straight-up-and-down pop single, is a beehive of trills and echoes, and ‘Posthumous Forgiveness’ smears a fuzzy vocal line over a guitar part that could have been written by Hal from _2001: A Space Oddyssey, _had he been raised on a steady diet of Spaghetti Western soundtracks. Every sound on every song has been manipulated in complicated, artful ways — mini-universes like ‘Breathe Deeper’ could have taken four years to write in and of themselves, let alone the rest of the album. So who knows if _The Slow Rush_ contains Parker’s blood and tears, but it’s definitely full of his sweat, a compact, interlocked puzzle of melodies and shimmering guitar licks. Initially that complexity overwhelms, and the first listen is a shimmering, frenetic experience. But constructing a puzzle this elaborate is an open invitation to the listener to solve it. Which is a problem, given that Tame Impala songs are never really ‘about’ anything. Beauty is self-justifying — there’s no ‘why’ to ask of a song like bombastic closer ‘One More Hour’. Parker’s concerns are purely aesthetic — it’s impossible to imagine a ‘political’ Tame Impala record, let alone an ‘autobiographical’ one. The man’s an 18th century landscape painter, not a confessional poet or a politician, and the more effort he puts into his songs, the more compelled an audience might be to work out what they ‘mean’. > Who knows if _The Slow Rush_ contains Parker’s blood and tears, > but it’s definitely full of his sweat. Which is nothing, really — less so even than Tame Impala hits of the past. Gone are the flute blasts of emotion that make ‘The Less I Know The Better’ and ‘Feels Like We Only Go Backwards’ so special. Songs like ‘Tomorrow’s Dust’ are beautiful, sure. But they feel like evidence that Parker has lost himself in the studio, wandering around in ever-smaller circles of detail, rather than risking exposing himself. But even if you resist the urge to pick the thing apart or to search for the point of exercise, there’s still a distinct sense of over-familiarity. Parker has a single creative mode, and on _The Slow Rush_, he burrows deeper into it, rather than ever pushing his boundaries outward. The disco-indebted, Daft Punk-esque ‘On Track’ might be the best song on the record, but it could just have easily been a _Lonerism_ B-side, while ‘Glimmer’ is a long corridor of self-referential in-jokes. The fans won’t be complaining, then. But anyone with even a passing hope that Parker might be interested in making something more than _Currents Part 2_ will be disappointed. _The Slow Rush _is pretty, it’s slick, and there’s a lot of it. But given that the band has already determinedly mastered that way of making music, is it really so crazy to hope that Parker and co. might one day try doingless?

HERE’S WHO COULD BE HEADLINING SPLENDOUR IN 2020 Splendour's line-up is dropping earlier than usual next year - and we have some ideas about who's gonna be on it. by Joseph Earp 5 December 2019__ __

Sure, it feels like like Splendour in the Grass 2019 wrapped like, two days ago, but time moves fast and July 2020 will be on us before weknow it.
In fact, Splendour in the Grass 2020 feels more immediate than ever, thanks to the fact that this year’s line-up is being announced a lot earlier than previous years. Yup, we’re
gonna find out which bands are going to be taking to the stage from July 24 through July 26 on Wednesday, February 19. You know what that means: it’s rampant speculation time! We’ve scoured the internet for clues, compared tour diaries, gazed earnestly into a crystal ball, and made our best guesses which bands will be playing Splendour in the Grass 2020. -------------------------FLUME
The last time Flume graced the Splendour stage was back in 2016, when he was armed with his shiny new record _Skin_. Since then he’s risen to headliner status around the world, and released a brand new mixtape last year in _Hi This Is Flume_. He once again appeared in the Hottest 100 last year with his Vera Blue collaboration ‘Rushing Back’ landing at #2. He’ll be playing a few dates over the next few months, including Coachella, Gov Ball, and Bonnaroo, but his schedule is wide open for late July — making a Splendour set certainly doable. PREDICTION: PRETTY GOOD CHANCE -------------------------ROBYN
Pop iconoclast Robyn hasn’t visited our shores in a long, long time. She was due to play Falls Festival a few years ago with Röyksopp, touring their stunning mini album _Do It Again_, which spawned the massive single of the same name. In the end, she cancelled at the lastminute.
Since then she’s released a new full-length, _Honey_, which remains one of the biggest and boldest pop releases of recent years. Just imagine: ‘Dancing On My Own’ and ‘Call Your Girlfriend’ played to tens of thousands of people in the Splendour Amphitheatre. Or, maybe better yet, a sweaty and pummelling dance set in the Mix Up.Magical.
PREDICTION: OUTSIDE CHANCE -------------------------THE STROKES
Julian Casablancas and co. turn up at Splendour every few years — their last appearance was alongside Flume in 2016. This year is looking likely for another New York City indie takeover: they’ve confirmed a new album is on the way, due on April 10, and they’ve pencilled in a number of tour dates for the next few months. Handily though, they’ve left a Splendour-sized hole in their schedule. Who knows, maybe they’ll bring Bernie Sanders out for a quick cameo?
PREDICTION: YEAH, WE RECKON -------------------------FRANK OCEAN
Splendour punters still nurse broken hearts from back back in 2013 when Frank Ocean cancelled his appearance at the 11th hour — although, they did get to see a very fresh Lorde play her first major festival, which was a pretty decent consolation prize. Ocean — who has always shied away from major tours — is stepping outside of his comfort zone this year, and is due to headline Coachella in April. He hasn’t confirmed anymore dates yet; neither has he confirmed whether a new album is on the way, which would be the follow-up to his acclaimed 2016 album _Blonde_. He’s said the new album is influenced by “Detroit, Chicago, techno, house, French electronic” — let’s hope it surfaces very soon. PREDICTION: PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY -------------------------THOM YORKE
People have been putting Radiohead in lists like this for literal years now. But there’s a reason why the band keep popping up in the Splendour conversation — Australians love ’em. So, wouldn’t it be a coup if the band’s headliner, Thom Yorke, made his way down here to promote his newest record _ANIMA_? Sure, it’d
be something of a plot twist, but every festival on the planet is looking for a way to increase social media chatter, and nabbing Yorke rather than the band that he leads would be exactly that. Oh, and though Yorke touring throughout much of next year, there’s a big old gap right around mid-July that makes this one feel like a little more than a hunch. PREDICTION: I MEAN, PERHAPS -------------------------LANA DEL REY
Lana Del Rey’s _Norman Fucking Rockwell _tour wraps up around the beginning of June, giving her plenty of time to recoup before headlining Splendour 2020 — at least, that’s what we hope. After all, Del Rey makes her way to our part of the world far too infrequently, and Australian audiences have yet to be treated to the soothing sounds of her latest masterpiece. Oh, and her previous tours Down Under have always sold out lickety-split, making this one financially viable for everyone involved. Please, Lana. We need this. PREDICTION: PIPE DREAM -------------------------CARDI B
Cardi B never toured ‘Press’, her newest single, around Australia, making Splendour 2020 a perfect time for her to show off her newest banger. It’s true that no record has currently been announced, but it seems inevitable that rap’s freshest voice will drop something in 2020, dovetailing neatly into a headline spot at one of Australia’sbiggest festivals.
Sure, having a baby slowed down her touring schedule a little, but Kulture should absolutely come Down Under with her rap superstar mum. The people demand it. PREDICTION: LEFT FIELD -------------------------TRAVIS SCOTT
In this day and age, it’s hip-hop that rules the airwaves, making it pretty likely that the Splendour In The Grass 2020 headliner will be a rap superstar. And who’s bigger in rap right now than Travis Scott? ‘Sicko Mode’ has been one of the most important songs in the world ever since it first dropped, a perfect midpoint between camp excess and pure, stripped-down meanness. Scott has London dates running all the way till the beginning of July, meaning that there’s some legs to this gossip. Could 2020 finally be the year we get Scott at Splendour? Let’s hope so.PREDICTION: LIKELY
-------------------------NICK CAVE
Nick Cave hasn’t yet announced an Australian tour for his newest record, the soft and beautiful _Ghosteen_. And sure, while that album doesn’t necessarily work for a festival audience — imagine a crowd of tipsy punters bumping and grinding to ‘Spinning Song’ — the man is a celebrated and incendiary live performer. Add to that the fact that Splendour organisers always love having an Australian leading the Australian festival, and this one feels like it might be on the cards. The only question is whether Cave himself would go for such a slot — and that’s a big question.
