Just before the holiday rush, a new Mouth Reader EP came across the desk, and there was much rejoicing. The duo — Kyle Frary and Ethan Rose, the latter of whom also runs the DIY label Funky Frankenstein — has a knack for making gritty, fuzzy garage pop that fits right into the Ty Segall zeitgeist while maintaining its own identity.

Today, Mouth Reader sent over the video for "Melt," the EP's title track, and we wondered for a minute whether someone slipped some psilocybin in among our pizza toppings. Thankfully, the growing and shrinking of heads isn't drug-induced, or worse, some kind of tear in the fabric of space-time: It's just editing by director Cameron Chiles that starts out very subtle and gets progressively wackier. Turn on, tune in and watch that above.
