"Time to turn on and turn it up, there's a brand new Carlton Melton in the offing. It's been a good couple of years since the West Coast space/sike travelers have dropped new music. With Anthony Taibi fully ensconced in the metaphorical Melton Dome, this four piece is ready to soar, go deeper and wider into the sike psyche than on previous recordings, now fully recording live with drums, bass, guitars and keys -- recorded at 3D Light in Freshwater, CA by Anthony Tiabi in 2025, and mastered by the inimitable John McBain in 2026. The single LP of 40+ minutes spans four tracks, that have textures, and waves and patterns to lull you into some fever dream of motorik psych! Touchstones like Träd, Gräs Och Stenar/Kandodo/Guru Guru/Eno & Fripp/Birds of Maya/Parson Sound come into view. There are moments of gentle ambience bordered by speaker shredding guitar soloing, whole passages of Krautrock inspired jams that have form and focus -- you blink and your live flashes before you, the record ends, you want more. Carlton Melton masterfully blend hypnotic, long-form psychedelic jams with drone and Krautrock influences."
