The track, which you can listen to below, was teased on a series of posters spotted in New York and Chicago last week alongside a photograph of Kevin Parker in his younger years.
It comes after Tame Impala returned in July with the seven-minute, house-inspired track ‘End Of Summer’, which Parker had previously debuted during a DJ set in Barcelona.
In the video for the new single, Stranger Things star and Djo musician Keery has a row with a woman before sitting dejectedly outside a convenience store. At one point Keery briefly morphs into Parker.
The slow-burning funky slice of psych pop also sees Parker singing the lyrics: “I’m a loser, babe / Do you wanna tear my heart out?”
Meanwhile, shortly before sharing ‘End Of Summer’, Parker shared a series of photographs on social media – revealing that he had “been busy” on new music in the studio.

The last slide of the carousel featured a whiteboard that appeared to show his progress on various new tracks. Each one had all the aspects ticked off – including “MIXED” – and were marked as “DONE”.
Last month, the producer and musician also posted another collection of images and videos, captioned: “Been busy part 2.” One clip saw Parker recording a funky bassline for a new song. Another snap showed him playing a synthesiser.
There is currently no further official information about Tame Impala’s upcoming fifth studio album. Since dropping ‘The Slow Rush’ over five years ago, Tame Impala have contributed to the Barbie soundtrack album, and collaborated with Thundercat, Diana Ross, Gorillaz and Justice.
Additionally, Parker worked as a co-producer and co-writer on Dua Lipa’s 2024 album ‘Radical Optimism’, and joined the pop star live on stage at Glastonbury and in Sydney.
Back in February, he won his first Grammy for ‘Neverender’ – one of his collaborations with Justice. Parker also reflected on the creation of his 2015 album ‘Currents’ recently, to mark its 10th anniversary.
