It’s shaping up to be a massive weekend for Perth-bred, Splendour-bound rockers Tame Impala as their new record, Currents, debuts at #3 on the UK Albums Chart.

The third album from the psychedelic-rock outfit sees them continue on their quest to conquer the world, and it’s expected the record will leave its mark on the ARIA Albums Chart, which gets released this evening.

We caught up with main man Kevin Parker in the lead up to Currents’ release, and you can check out the full convo here.

Tame Impala play the main stage at Splendour In The Grass tomorrow night.

Aussie lads 5 Seconds Of Summer also make their way onto the UK charts, with their new tune, She’s Kinda Hot, debuting at #18.
