Tame Impala surprised fans on Thursday with a Currents b-sides and remixes EP, featuring three new songs not included on the 2015 album.
The first new track, "List of People (To Try to Forget About)," premiered today on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show. Frontman Kevin Parker told Lowe during the premiere he wrote the song several years ago, back when the band was recording their 2012 record Lonerism.
The new material is part of a collector's edition box set, which is available now for pre-order. It includes the album Currents on limited edition red-marbled vinyl with alternate artwork, a 12" featuring two remixes and a 7" with three b-sides, as well as a poster and zine of images and writings from the making of the record.
The physical set is out Friday, but the new songs can be heard below.
