Fuzz Club

Fuzz Club is a London based independent record label that focuses on raw, experimental rock 'n' roll. Influenced by genres such as psychedelia, shoegaze, noise, garage, blues, folk and experimentation. The label started in rural Norway during the 24 hour darkness of the Arctic winter and emerged onto the scene in 2012 with their compilation album "The Reverb Conspiracy". This annual release captures the essence of today's underground music scene.

With over 40 releases and around 20 artists under their belt, Fuzz Club has worked with renowned names like Anton Newcombe, Goat, Alan Vega, The Black Angels, Dead Skeletons, A Place to Bury Strangers and The Underground Youth. They believe in putting as much energy and art into the presentation of their records as the bands do into their music. Collaborating with visual artists allows them to create unique and collectible album covers and vinyl.

In addition to their regular releases, Fuzz Club offers super limited edition deluxe versions of select albums. These hand painted, stamped and sealed editions are considered works of art themselves. As a distributor for Fuzz Club records, Cargo Records ensures that these exceptional releases reach fans worldwide.

Field Theory&nbsp;is the second studio album from Dublin four-piece Melts. Recorded live to tape at Black Mountain Studios in Summer 2023 and produced by Gilla Band's Daniel Fox, it's a collection of turbulent electronic psych-rock shaped by bulldozing motorik synth lines, densely layered guitars, primal percussion and the cavernous vocals of frontman Eoin Kenny. While their highly-praised 2022 debut ‘Maelstrom’ dealt with forces on a larger scale affecting a whole city, Field Theory&nbsp;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 write: “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.”
