'microwavelengths' album premiere and interview- It's psychedelic baby magazine -
I hear elements of Bardo Pond and Skullflower’s heavy psych mixed with touches of Eddie Hazel style freeform fusion and intense noise rock all bounced around in your music. What actual musical reference points were you aiming for with ‘Microwavelengths’?
Andy: I don’t think we have aimed for anything, ever, in regards to making a record. There will always be subconscious influences; whatever any of us happens to be listening to- at home, or driving to work- leading up to the studio session. It could be Van Halen, it could be the Butthole Surfers. Win-win.

We Love You Junzo - benefit for Suzuki Junzo music compilation on bandcamp -
Everybody who meets Suzuki Junzo loves the guy. Everybody who has seen him live drops their jaw on the floor. So when this February he suffered a intracerebral hemorrhage and a subarachnoid hemorrhage everyone was very worried. Junzo is now in a rehabilitation hospital and unable to tour or record music. Proceeds from this compilation will all go towards helping him financially but we want this to do more than that. This album is also one giant get well card, a huge sign of love from the world to Junzo. We love you Junzo and we know you got this but we're all there cheering for you every step of the way.

COMPLEX DISTRACTIONS - CARLTON MELTON LIVE IN POINT ARENA VINYL REISSUE ( J Hubner )
The mighty Carlton Melton have been trailblazers in psych rock since the late 2000s, putting out revelatory rock albums that play with sounds as varied as 60s fuzz guitars, 70s experimental, and ambient textures that encapsulate 50 years of forward-thinking music.
But like every great trailblazer, you gotta start somewhere.
