Tame Impala National Tour + Debut Album 'InnerSpeaker' Out May 21
Modular is proud to announce that West Coast sonic wanderers Tame Impala will unveil their debut album InnerSpeaker on May 21, and are taking to the road in May for a National Tour. It will be the first time much of the record is played live to an unsuspecting public and will showcase the gloriously dazzling results of one of planet earth's most exciting bands absolutely going to town on their debut long player.
Following on from their debut, self-titled EP, InnerSpeaker is Tame Impala's chance to paint a far more extensive picture than before, and sure enough it redrafts the entire Tame Impala world as we knew it, into an explosive cosmic wonderland of ecstatic harmony and perfectly accessible journeys into inner space.

Interview: Jonathan Boulet
Before revving up the Bouletmobile and stepping out on his first headline tour, we had a chinwag with our main man Jonathan Boulet. Jono spills the beans on his song-writing process, what makes him happy and sheds some light on album two's process.
Modular: A lot of emphasis has been placed on the fact that you recorded the album by yourself and played all of the instruments. How does it feel to perform the songs with a band rather than have complete control over every aspect?
Jonathan Boulet: I think it's good. It's different because I like to make it a bit more open to those guys, so every now and then we'll try jamming, or maybe I'll start playing something and everyone will join in and they don't know what I'm going to do. It's totally different, it's not all set out, it's all just sort of open. If you feel like something - you can try it.
