San Francisco psych wunderkind Ty Segall continues a tireless
musical assault on ears and minds with his third album, Melted.
Segall says it sounds like “cherry cola, Sno-Cones and taffy.”
Indeed! Over the past two years he’s released records more often
than most people do laundry, but somehow there is still a heap of
anticipation for this new album on Goner packed full of truly
psychedelic pop songs with great vocals and exciting arrangements.
On the heels of two critically acclaimed solo albums, Segall
holed up in a basement studio with Mike Donovan of the Sic
Alps in late 2009 and early 2010 to come up with Melted. It’s
a carefree yet precise balance of acoustic and electric elements.
Distorted echo and thunder mix together with enough clean guitar
lines and addictive choruses to deliver an album that recalls
the ’60s without sounding like anything created during that decade.
Time melts away, vision melts away, minds melt away. Get
Melted
