Tame Impala Gives a Trippy Performance of “Is It True” on Colbert: Stream
On Monday evening, Tame Impala played a special quarantine rendition of “Is It True” for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The performance of The Slow Rush cut was suitably psychedelic, but it also revealed some troubling tendencies in the band.

Of course, that’s Kevin Parker in all three roles, using the magic of video editing to express his status as a one-man band. While other artists have relied on pre-taped bathroom recordings to give the illusion of a live performance, Parker acknowledged the artifice, utilizing it to create a simple but thrilling spectacle. Check out “Is It True” below. Earlier this month, Tame Impala participated i...
