Tame Impala offer free track

Tame Impala have offered a free download of their first new track in three years.

Get your copy of Let It Happen via the band’s website, in return for your email address.

The eight-minute piece follows 2012’s second album Lonerism – and a third full-length release is expected later this year.

The Australian outfit haven’t confirmed those plans, but they have detailed a US tour that kicks off in California on April 8 and ends in New York on June 7.

They return to the UK in September:

Sep 04: End Of The Road Festival, Wiltshire

Sep 04: Dublin Electric Picnic

Sep 06: Stradbally Hall

Sep 09: Glasgow Barrowland

Sep 11: Bestival, Isle of Wight

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
