Love how good Nick looks these days, much more happier and secure, less loopy. Love this guy so much, blessed to have seen his evolution over the years
It's the reason they decided to start producing completely on their own with _9._ They were getting tired of the constant comparisons, the suggestions from some that "Kevin is the real genius behind their work", and being viewed as an inconsequential side-project of Tame Impala. Regardless of how close they are with him, that's really got to be grating. I'm glad they struck out on their own as _9_ and _Stung!_ are among the best albums they've ever recorded, but it seems that most music publications still can't help but mention Tame in the first paragraph of their reviews for Pond.
Nick seems like such a legit cool guy. I _love_ the direction they took on The Weather. That album honestly made me love them _more_ than Tame Impala. The songs Sweep Me Off My Feet, 30000 Megatons, and The Weather are all damn near perfect. Modern pop at it's best. I'm still kinda iffy on Tasmania though....need to give it a few more listens before I make up my mind.
@@Rexis95 He was actually born in Nina Tipp, fell off the couch reading that fact yrs ago. They were the coolest band in the world after beard,wives,denim IMHO
Ahhh okay LOL... since Nick sings TASCAM 388 my mind immediately went to assuming thst it was Nick who wanted it... I'm just now learning the real backstory behind that song...
_MIFLSA_ is absolutely incredible, but I'd definitely say _The Weather_ is where they truly hit their stride. Everything since then -- _Tasmania,_ _9,_ and _Stung!_ -- has been perfect imho.
make an album without kev. i think it will be better. get rid of the cages around your soul and music mate. kev's great but i think working with him limits your potential.
@@dcmushi and studio lights are bright af, i hate them as well lol. He looks so much clearer than years ago tbh, he definitely was heavy into drugs back then, prob still is but seems way more healthy and clear

Nick is always very patient when answering questions about Kevin. I'm sure it gets old for him.
i know it's kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to stream new tv shows online ?
@Dayton Devin I watch on FlixZone. Just google for it :)

His little speech from 7:40 to like 8:20 is amazing.

Couldn’t agree with you more. However, Tasmania is a banging album. Give it some time. It is right in the money.
I feel you on The Weather, but Tasmania is really special too. Selene is an all time fav.
I also prefer Pond..
@@brittanyvh9139 Tasmania def grew on me....but still never really captivated me a ton.
But the new album 9?!? Hands down their best yet. So so good.
"Kev"
I think he said it to distance himself from the Tame Impala camp... even Kevin gets sick of music critics calling pond a TI "Sideproject"
Gained a lot of respect for Nick in this interview. Cool dude
The album is great. They don't need to escape anything but they've definitely hit the mark.
"Joe can go across the road and get a pizza" lmao
album smacks
I wonder if Nick got his Tascam 388 for Christmas?
that was joe not nick, but yes he did haha
That Tascam actually was for Shiny Joe and he got it already before writing the song.

@@davidkrappenschitz1424 joe sings it
this album is going to be so good, i can already feel it
Love this album
I fucking love his looks
Cooked
Tasmania is home
I'll be happy/sad the day these guys get the credit they deserve from the world. With the way things are going who knows maybe even the universe.
Tassie is Australia.
such a cool person
I do like miflsa a lot but the production and just sounds on the weather, Tasmania, and 9 are so fucking good
Even though miflsa feels more rough to me my favorite pond songs are still on that album which are holding out for you and medicine hat

tassieeee
Really liked this 😁
"Joe can go across the road and get a pizza" hehe x)
Tasmania is one of my fav albums ever, also this is the first time i see Nick not in drugs
Fuck I love these people

silversurfer so far from the truth kev is a genius. listen to their solo shit if you want the artistic individuality
Thankfully they did with _9_ and _Stung!,_ and the results were phenomenal. They are the real deal.

He looks homeless but I think that’s fine
I'd take him in
poor guy doesn't have much of a wardrobe ... I use to wear my black jeans to death too
looks homeless...... also wears adidas
@@80royce68 Good song by KGATLW lol
sorry, not everyone needs to buy new pair of jeans or to have perfect smile to be happy
Who is kev
I would assume Kevin Parker
@@BitterrootRambler yeah, He drops in and out with the other band (Tame Impala).
@@littlerelief5029 But tame impala is just kevin
Seriously? Who is Kev? Wow.
@@denisepaulsenful r/whoooooosh
Why are his pupils always so small? 🤔
It's a light sensitivity issue - I have it too. Sometime my pupils go so big that people get freaked out (so I wear sunglasses).
Hey yeah, that happens to me as well sometimes. I’m an idiot for not taking that into consideration.
Aggressive LSD consumption

heroin
beautiful haha
First
i Dont like this album :/ No one´s doing the good psycadelic stuff anymore..
Give it a few tries Tasmania has grown on me
And whats the “good psychedelic”? Doing what people in the 60s-70s already did? Laammee
@@Astromancy2112 cringe
Listen to Post Animal they're very good
