Tame Impala Returns With First New Music Since 2020: Listen to ‘End of Summer’
Tame Impala has officially broken his five-year silence, today releasing his brand new single ‘End of Summer’, a shimmering, seven-minute sonic journey that redefines his signature sound while staying true to the essence that fans love.
As the first solo studio release from Kevin Parker since 2020’s The Slow Rush, ‘End of Summer’ blends Tame Impala’s iconic nostalgic psychedelia with a refreshing dose of futuristic pop and summer-fuelled club energy. The track, teased over recent weeks through cryptic social media posts and a ticking countdown on the website, lives up to the hype, lush synths, warped melodies, and a dancefloor-ready rhythm make it a bold step into a new era.

Fans had speculated the track’s title after eagle-eyed sleuths discovered End of Summer embedded in the source code of Tame Impala’s website earlier this week. Parker later previewed the song during a surprise DJ set in Barcelona, offering a glimpse of the track’s expansive, electronic edge.
The release follows a wave of behind-the-scenes Instagram content from Parker tagged “Been busy,” including whiteboard tracklists, studio footage, and hints at a full-length album. With 13 completed tracks shown in one clip, it’s clear ‘End of Summer’ could be the opening chapter of a larger project.
Whether it’s a standalone anthem or the beginning of something bigger, ‘End of Summer’ reminds listeners why Kevin Parker remains one of Australia’s most visionary music exports.
