I love them, but they kind of snuffed Swedish band Dungen's sound and made it more straightforward. Plus, the single most alluring part of the equation is that the singer sounds like the perfect combination of Lennon and McCartney...
Maybe Prog related? I don't really care, I dig em just the same.

I very much like Tame Impala. I myself think they are at least a little progressive. What is prog anyways.

Crossover would work for me with Tame Impala ...though I would have thought Psych/Space as the first port of call

Great to see a local band from my neck o' the woods getting discussed Thumbs Up

They've already been evaluated in Psych Team and voted "MOVE (to Crossover)".

Sorry for my belated report.

Very nice band. They sound like Dungen, minus the prog. The melodies and the vocal harmonies are splendid.

I'm gonna toss them into Psych Team, but many difficulties for evaluation will lie ahead of them maybe.

Anyway, thanks desistindo for your suggestion.
