Tame Impala's breakout album Lonerism is being recognized for its 10th anniversary with a new box set scheduled for release on May 26th, 2023. The 3LP deluxe reissue contains previously unreleased demos and songs from the era, plus a 24-page booklet.

Lonerism was Tame Impala's breakout record. It received critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork and NME and is regarded as one of the best albums of 2012. This expanded deluxe edition of the album features the original album track list, 2 previously unreleased demos, a full side of album demos, and a deluxe 24-page booklet.

Back in October, Kevin Parker wrote on Instagram: "(It's) difficult to sum up what the album means to me at this point. It was a pretty special time for me making the music. In a way it's when I truly discovered myself as an artist. Coming off the back of Innerspeaker I had this new sense of purpose... calling... whatever you want to call it."

He added: "I had finally given myself permission to let music take over my being completely... to become totally immersed in my own world of recording music. So I had this new sense of creative freedom. I felt free to be ambitious, weird, pop, experimental, whatever, and didn't feel judged because I was finally just doing it for myself and believed in myself."
