San Francisco quartet Melted Toys announced that  their self-titled debut album will drop July 15 via Underwater Peoples. Mixed by Rusty Santos, (the engineer behind the controls for Animal Collective’s Sung Tongs, Panda Bear’s Person Pitch and numerous Warp Records releases) ‘Melted Toys’ blends plaintive pop with psychedelic electronica.
Today Melted Toys share the surreal video for “Observations,” directed by Monika Mogi. Stream the video over at BULLETT.
