    This album is a rock solid 30 minutes, I have listened to it countless times and never once gotten sick of it.

    Melted is a fresh breathing of everything that is good coming from 60's. It's a perfect sewing of surf music, garage, punk, acid rock, Kinks mixed with a full of attitude lo-fi garment.

    Ty Segall gives his best to craft an intense, rough and weird universe paved with complex riffs. Amazingly raw bass and drums. As Prefix Magazine underlines it, I found that one of the 'Melted' disadvantages was its boring constancy in the rhythms it offers.
    However I simply can't deny the tremendous efforts put in the movements and patterns coordinated around its skeletal structure.

    However I simply can't deny the tremendous efforts put in the movements and patterns coordinated around its skeletal structure. Piano solos on 'Caesar' and 'Girlfriend' are the two best example I can give to justify my point. I guess he also could have worked a bit more on his voice rather than diving into his precious indie genre standards. Still a powerful an interesting project !    … Expand

    Melted is a true, terrific, and times gleefully terrifying mirror of its maker.

    It's not as if any of this breaks new stylistic ground (in fact, it bears no small resemblance to his pals and sometimes collaborators Thee Oh Sees), but it sure sounds like Segall is having fun, and it brings some additional heat and spice to his rich brew of sound.

    There are a lot of moments that gently wash away, against the pushing drive of the other songs on the album. Segall mostly attempts to create different spaces of time and is able to make many of them work to his direct advantage.
