Modular is over the moon to ring in a new era of interspaced exploration and swinging, freejamming delight with their freshest release - Tame Impala.

Tame Impala are Kevin Parker [Guitar & Vocals], Dominic Simper [Bass Guitar] & Jay Watson [Drums & Vocals] the Perth-based 3 piece hypno-groove wet dream who deliver music that makes other bands look like a bad acid flashback, think Cream meets Can on an ether-tinged desert ride with Dr. Gonzo. With fuzzed guitars, tumbling drums and howling  a plenty, the band evokes dreamy images of a place where music belongs to all five senses and rhythm aligns with the pulse
of the space-time continuum.

The trio came together in 2007 after floating around various Perth outfits in one bastard form or another and hit upon their current steez as Tame Impala over a shared appreciation of drum beats, Leaf Hound and the challenging confines of living off $5 a week. Citing Kyuss and QOTSA frontman Josh Homme, John Lennon and Selda as heroes, Tame Impala went about creating their buzzing, meandering headtrip of harmony-laden and melody-soaked psych rock. Don’t let the influences fool you though, this band isn’t about re-creating the past, it’s all here and now.

Tame Impala may call Australia home, but the three-piece outfit trade in the kind of zonked-out psych that brings to mind the Swedes in Dungen. The band's debut, Innerspeaker, was released last week in Australia and is scheduled for June 8 in the U.S. via Modular (that's the trippy cover art above)
