Kevin Parker Unveils “Dracula” from Upcoming Tame Impala Album
Kevin Parker, the mastermind behind Tame Impala, has released “Dracula,” the third single from his much-anticipated album, Deadbeat. Accompanied by a visually stunning music video directed by Julian Klincewicz—who previously worked on the lead single “End of Summer”—this new track showcases Parker’s evolving sound and artistic vision.
About “Dracula”
In a recent conversation with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Parker described “Dracula” as one of the earliest creations in the album’s evolution. “It’s kind of the oldest song from the album process. It’s one of the ones I started first,” he explained. “That’s, like, an example of one of the ones that started in this really raw, minimal way, and then just sort of, like, slowly expanded into this sort of, like, pop.” This transformation reflects Parker’s unique ability to blend raw musicality with polished pop aesthetics.
Details on the Upcoming Album
Deadbeat is set for release on October 17 and will feature a total of 12 tracks, including the already released “Dracula,” “End of Summer,” and another single titled “Loser.” Fans can expect a diverse range of sounds that showcase Parker’s artistic growth over time.
