Psych Insight Music - Psych Lovers Top Twenty Albums of 2018
3. Carlton Melton – Mind Minerals (Agitated Records)
In terms of pace the overall feel of the album is that of a venerable old wooden roller coaster with steady climbs that reveal breath-taking views before turning into long thrilling descents through sound and space. The changing pace and variety of textures are indeed a tonic for the mind; a meditation of gently picked guitar, pounding tribal drums, spacey synth, hypnotic drone and scorching fuzz.

28. Carlton Melton : Mind Minerals
Carlton Melton have never shied away from longform exploratory records. Even the shorter LPs had one or two epic mind melters to soundtrack some serious contemplation. Their last full-length LP was 2015s Out To Sea, a double LP filled with both gas-guzzling muscle car rock ‘n rollers as well as zone-out psych ambient that is built for hazy basement ponderings in bean bag chairs and oversized Koss headphones perched on your noggin. With Mind Minerals, these Cali fuzz kings go full throttle into the expanse of space. “Electrified Sky” feels like Spacemen 3 trying their hand of AOR riff rock, while “Basket Full Of Trumpets” has the feel of some deep forest ritual under the blood moon. You wanna get lost in a cloud of smoke and haze? Hit play on the epic and ethereal “Atmospheric River”. This song encompasses the best of the 60s, 70s, and deep space rock with that dense and dank beauty only Carlton Melton have the recipe for.
