Aussie psych group Tame Impala have yet to release a follow-up to their 2012 breakthrough LP Lonerism, but that doesn't mean they've stayed out of the studio. In fact, the band have just shared a new cover of Michael Jackson's "Stranger in Moscow."

Sharing the song on their Facebook, the band wrote, "free michael jackson cover yaaalll. fresh out of the the oven. MJ 4 eva."

They've certainly made it their own, too. While MJ fans will surely recognize the melody, this cover is packed with dream-like synths and huge drumbeats, making it sound very Tame Impala.

Check out the band's cover of "Stranger in Moscow" below.
