Dublin’s MELTS have announced a welcome return to Belfast, happening on 27 September, and going on sale Friday 22 March. MELTS second album Field Theory follows on 12 April, and was recorded live to tape in Black Mountain Studios in summer 2023 and produced by Gilla Band’s Daniel Fox“MELTS bring many angles of attack to their brand of psych-rock. It’s invigorating stuff” NME“Churning, krautrock-infused psych-rock” Stereogum“MELTS make gothy, driving post-punk... a sound that is both cavernous and claustrophobic” Brooklyn VeganWhile their debut album, 2022's Maelstrom, dealt with forces on a larger scale affecting a whole city, Field Theory explores connections on a smaller, interpersonal scale. The title takes the scientific term ‘Field Theory’, which describes how forces interact and influence particles around them, and applies it to the interactions between people, to the space between all of us, how people interact and affect others around them. Expanding on the album’s themes, MELTS explained:“Like gravity we are drawn to and miss people and like light waves we love people and are loved. We live in orbits of each other, drawn by unseen forces. The album explores these forces, how we relate to each other, the people we live with and the people we live without. At the heart of Field Theory lies the realisation that we inhabit each other's worlds as much as our own, through a field of wide-ranging forces, as important as the ones keeping the planets in place.”Comprising of Robbie Brady, Hugh O'Reilly, Gaz Earle, and Eoin Kenny, MELTS spent 2022/2023 touring their celebrated debut Maelstrom across Europe, the UK, the US and Ireland, including festival appearances at Wide Awake and SXSW. Outside of their own headline dates, they have also toured with Fontaines D.C. and supported Gilla Band and Public Image Ltd. Along the way they have been praised by the likes of NME, Dork, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan and Paste, alongside gaining widespread airplay on BBC 6 Music.
