On their debut album Mill On The Hill, Melin Melyn move effortlessly between surf-rock, country, prog-rock and psychedelia with the grace and skill of a band with
numerous records under their belt, held together by an efficacious and fantastical
thematic principle. Melin Melyn translates to ‘Yellow Mill’ in Welsh, and on this album
the Welsh six-piece invite the audience into the world they have quite literally built
around them. Mill On The Hill transports the listeners to the utopian ‘Melin Village’, a
Seussian world where townsfolk “bask in the beauty of song.”
“Croeso! Welcome, one and all to the magical world of the Mill On The Hill. The yellow
mill that sits on top of a hill, looking down on Melin Village and all of its wonderful
occupants. Everyone is welcome here.” says Chief Miller Gruff. “Don’t be deceived, this
is no ordinary mill. Our duty is to create music inside the mill for all the occupants of
Melin Village, and anyone else who’d like to listen. Because, after all, who could
imagine a world without music?”
Melin Melyn are more than just a band. They’re world-builders; storytellers absorbing
various elements of the increasingly strange times around us and using them to create
fables that ruminate on grief, love, and hope.

“primary-coloured, fizzing with melody and clearly part of the Welsh
psychedelic tradition that has given us Super Furry Animals.”

“The Welsh-speaking surf-pop heroes inspire cult-like devotion”
