HiddenTrack #202 CHARLES MOOTHART

In case you haven't heard, one of LA's finest garage-psych aficionados, Charles Moothart (best known for his work with Ty Segall and Fuzz), released his new"apocalyptic pop" record, Black Holes Don't Choke, released on March 8th via In The Red Records.

LA garage-psych maestro Charles Moothart (formerly CFM) released his new LP, Black Holes Don't Choke. Announced at the beginning of December, Moothart has shared a host of singles from the record, which includes today's focus track, "Hold On". Moothart's signature heavy fuzz is still present, however it takes a bit of a backseat to his newly-present vocals as they swing across the track, building to the tracks infectious, titular chorus.

Black Holes Don't Choke is meant to be a present meditation. It was written, recorded, and mixed entirely by Charles Moothart in his Los Angeles studio, and he plays all of the music heard on the album. The implementation of samplers is a noteworthy development as well as the general inclusion of more electronic elements.

Still, the album sounds at home in Moothart's universe of music to date. The album reflects the here and now. It embraces the elements and sounds of the present without glamorizing any tense - past, present, or future. It conveys a feeling of chaotic love and empowerment within a time of existential turmoil - aiming to lift up what positives exist in a world riddled with toxicity and complexity.
