The Quietus

‘Peaking Duck’ is the perfect introduction to Californian rock monsters Carlton Melton’s fifth album, Out To Sea, for a number of reasons. The plodding drone, the vast cosmic caterwauls, the gnarled guitar wails – it is what has become the five-piece’s signature dish for eight years now.

The Quietus

When I was growing up I was lucky enough to have bedroom curtains decorated with stars, planets and other astronomical prettiness. It gave me a glimpse into the galaxy that I was otherwise denied by light pollution, not owning a telescope, and being too lazy to do a paper-round in order to buy myself a telescope.
