I SPEAK MACHINE - New Album Out Soon; To Tour Europe In May And June Supporting Gary Numan

Tara Busch, under the guise I Speak Machine, presents her new album, WAR. The forthcoming album by the experimental audio-visual project, I Speak Machine will be released worldwide on the 22nd of April via ISM Records.

WAR brings Tara out from behind her fortress of synths and horror soundtracks and back to centre stage as a songwriter and performer. Shapeshifting into a spiky-crowned, combat boot-clad banshee, the album sinks its teeth into themes of addiction and mental illness. The result is WAR - a dense, intense, thick-as-a-brick witch's brew of vintage synths and machines, skull-bruising drums, and that voice.

For the making of WAR, Tara brought her works to Sheffield producer Dean Honer, one of the masterminds behind The E.R.C, All Seeing I, The Moonlandingz & I Monster, and producer of records by bands such as Add N to X and The Human League. Over the next three years, they co-produced WAR remotely between Tara's Los Angeles studio and Dean's Sheffield-based studio. As one might expect, WAR recruits a fierce army of synths and drum machines in its production ethos - yet also welcoming into the fold satisfyingly incongruent elements such as woodwinds and both acoustic and bass guitar. Tara's voice, the central storytelling instrument, is also pummeled and pitch-bent, crunched through fuzz pedals and vocoders and even morphed into a vicious synth bass by Tara singing through her vintage Korg MS-20.

I Speak Machine will bring the album to the live stage on a European tour supporting Gary Numan (tour dates are below). Three songs/videos are already revealed and you can check out all of them below. Link
