Tame Impala (Kevin Parker) was asked to write a song for the upcoming feature film, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. The new original song, “Wings of Time,” was released in advance of the movie’s March 31 premiere.
“Being asked to do a track for the D&D soundtrack seemed like an unmissable opportunity to indulge in my long-time love of fantasy prog rock,” Parker, who recently underwent hip surgery, stated. “I recruited my good friend Nicholas Allbrook, who is the person I know appreciates this subject matter the most. We rented a villa in Spain, that kind of felt like a castle, for two nights whilst on tour for Primavera. That location got us in the right frame of mind and it went from there. We stayed up late coming up with weird ideas and song lyrics.”
