Always Even Carlton Melton

2013 release, the fourth album from the Psychedelic noise makers. Always Even was recorded in a geodesic dome in the winter of 2012-13. Strap in, fly on; but do not be fooled by the gentle ease of opening track 'Slow Wake.' It's the calm before the Psych storm, a balm for one's ears to prepare body and mind for the synth riff laden, psych guitar knockout blasting to come. 'Keeping On' launches into a unmapped zones, only to return to earth with the 'eased back dome' drone of 'Spider Web.' the trip continues with the furious, Kraut influenced 'Sarsen,' a track that could soundtrack an entire flight to the Moon and back; not to mention fuel the rocket ship with it's ampheto cranked Psych Chug. Make sure all seat belts are fastened for final descent, as 'The Splurge' envelopes all with it's molasses like fog/fug.
