Tame Impala’s ‘The Slow Rush’ Most-sold New Vinyl In The UK This Year

Tame Impala fans in the UK sure love their vinyl, as evident by The Slow Rush’s latest achievement.

The February LP from Perth psych-rock maestro Kevin Parker (our pick for Album Of The Week upon release) has reportedly shifted 6,900 copies in the UK, making it the most-sold new vinyl in the region this year.

Overall, it’s the year's fourth best-selling vinyl album in the UK, behind Amy Winehouse’s Back To Black (#1), Nirvana’s Nevermind (#2) and Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours (#3).

It’s been a huge year for Parker, with The Slow Rush topping the ARIA Albums chart upon release, while also dominating charts across the globe.

Last month 2015 single The Less I Know The Better was revealed as the #1 song on triple j’s Hottest 100 Of The Decade countdown.

Tame Impala’s Australian headline tour in support of The Slow Rush is currently scheduled to go ahead in December.
