While Charles Moothart has been playing with the likes of Mikal Cronin and Ty Segall for many moons, it was his experience in Fuzz—a band created by Segall and Moothart as basically an outlet for Moothart’s guitar shredding—that finally inspired him to create a solo project. Following last year’s LP, “Still Life of Citrus and Slime,” and EP, “Homegrown Paranoia,” a new CFM album, “Dichotomy Desaturated,” arrives on April 7 via In The Red Records. “The whole record is a constant push and pull where I’m at with my life and with music,” he says, “coming to terms with the fact that all I want to do is push myself, but it becomes scary.”

Where first single “Rise And Fall” set its gears on face-melt, “Voyeurs” is an acoustic guitar-driven more subtle burn, clocking in at five minutes. Moothart says, “It has a different groove to it, which is something that I’m personally trying to find more comfort with—giving things more space and time… With this song, there’s more of an effort to let a song have the space it’s supposed to have and see how far that carries it. The riff sits in the pocket, instead of exploding out right into your face.”
