Ty Segall has been called a “garage-punk prodigy” and a “San Francisco psych wunderkind,” an “ultra-prolific” “lo-fi rocker” with a “distinct talent for crafting really catchy vocal hooks.” Today though, he set aside those catchy vocals, kicked his lo-fi vibe into overdrive and teamed up with fellow Californians Chad & The Meatbodies to create a split benefit single. Segall’s half of the split, “Music For A Film 1,” is a classic rock’n’roll-gone-wild instrumental with heavily layered percussion and incremental gnarly guitar shredding that proves as well as refutes the many monikers of this Bay Area “living legend.” [...]
Ty Segall at Bumbershoot 2012 / photo by Amber Zbitnoff Today's a big day for Ty Segall , that is if the legendary scuzz garage king can have big days anymore after his many releases, shows, and side projects. First of all his band Fuzz released a video that features the trio playing "Fuzz's Fourth Dream" at Burgerama in LA. The video starts with a little trickle of "Rhapsody in Blue" for whatever reason, before following them to the show. Next up Segall has a new track streaming - "Music For [...]
Appearing as the seventh installment in the ongoing split 7" Less Artists More Condos series is Ty Segall and Chad & The Meatbodies . The former of which provided this excellent fuzz instrumental track "Music For A Film 1" - something of a departure of the garage rock revivalist. The latter track, however, is blindingly excellent and a must listen from Chad & The Meatbodies. As part of the series, the artist featured as the A-Side of the 7" (in this case, Segall) picks the artists they would like to see featured as [...]
It's a big day for Ty Segall on the internet. His old crony Mikal Cronin is streaming an excellent album , his new band Fuzz dropped a video , and now Segall is ready to let the world know that he can funk. Segall, normally a wooly Bay Area fuzz-rocker, has a song on a new benefit split single with Chad & The Meatbodies, the seventh split in the Less Artists More Condos series, and it's a sharp disco-rock churn called "Music For A Film 1." There is some serious guitar-shred and rhythmic push-pull in this particular slab [...]

Krautrock and the music of mid-sized car commercials collide on the latest cut from San Francisco garage rocker Ty Segall, the looping, mesmerizing "Music for a Film 1." Brushing aside the conventional blues dispensations of other fuzz wizards like Jack White, Segall aims for something more eastern block and dreamlike. "Music for a Film 13 isn't the most innovative thing we've heard from Segall, but it does a good job of capturing the listener in its monumental, repetitive snare and refusing to let go.

The 73 is out today via Famous Class. For the Sabbath fans out there, check out the latest track from Segall's new side-project Fuzz, "Fourth Dream".

![[Listen] Ty Segall: "Music For A Film 1"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4921297_lg.jpg)
Esto es lo que pasaría si Ty Segall fuera el encargado de hacer el soundtrack de alguna película. Obviamente, las referencias a Can se hacen presentes en todo momento, lo cual en si no es ninguna sorpresa ya que este tipo en cada oportunidad que tiene, aprovecha para proyectar de la manera más descarada cada una de sus influencias dentro de su estética de garage que constantemente va pervirtiendo en los diferentes proyectos en los que se ve envuelto. "Music For A Film 1" no es un track en el que vayamos a escuchar la voz de [...]
Ty Segall is back with a new video from his band Fuzz! Video courtesy of Pitchfork.
Here's "Fuzz's Fourth Dream," another track from Ty Segall's new psych band Fuzz. Its black and white clip is pretty low-key, primarily just the trio performing together. But what makes it so great is seeing Segall get his Don Henley on and how amused he is by his own drumming. It's hard not to smile with him. Check it out below. Read More...
San Francisco psych-rocker Mikal Cronin is streaming his sophomor e album MCII in full one week ahead of its release (May 7th via Merge). Listen now at NPR.org . Recorded at San Francisco’s Bauer Mansion, the 10-track album features appearances by Cronin's good buddy Ty Segall, violinist K. Dylan Edrich, drummer Charles Moothart, and slide guitarist Petey Dammit. “Since the first record came out, my life has changed quite a bit,” Cronin explains in a press release, referencing his move to San Francisco and his work alongside Segall. “I was presented with a whole new slew of problems [...]
White Fence: Cyclops Reap — Originally intended to be a selection of unreleased White Fence backlog, Cyclops Reap is the product of revisiting the old in order to create the new. Tim Presley of White Fence cranks out recordings faster than one can keep track. Like his psych comrades Ty Segall and John Dwyer (of Thee Oh Sees ), he’s a little hard to keep up with. There’s been a handful of White Fence LP’s released in only a few years time, not to mention a collaborative [...]
Yesterday Pickathon announced the addition of three new acts to this year's festival, which takes place at Pendarvis Farm on August 2-4: San Francisco font of garage rock Ty Segall will be there, perhaps in an altogether new guise (he'll have released three new albums by the time Pickathon weekend rolls around, no doubt). Long-lost gospel-funk ensemble the Relatives will perform (read our recent article on the Relatives' revival here ). And up-and-coming rennaissance-fayre folker Jessica Pratt has also been added. These three join the already stacked bill , which [...]

Lovers of vinyl will go to bed tonight with visions of sugar-plums dancing in their heads, as Record Store Day – the high holiday for audiophiles around the world – returns tomorrow, and more than 25 Bay Area independent record shops are participating in the madness. This year's event (the seventh official RSD) features not only its usual array of special releases from high profile musicians, but a handful of local acts are jumping into the fray, dropping limited edition wax that will no doubt delight many scenesters from the Bay and beyond.

>> Bursting forth with the ferocity of Link Wray 's meanest, tobacco-spitting moments comes Boston's Royal Wedding . The trio's dilapidated, guttural, rockabilly skronk quickly drew us into its latest release, Inhabitants , which was released to the wilds of the Internerds last month. The EP, available as a pay-what-you-like download from Bandcamp right here , touts six skeletal and electrifying numbers. Echoed, harsh and dangerous-sounding effects fly from each instrument, but paint-by-numbers rock-shock sleaze Royal Wedding is not. Each song from the threesome's EP carries wisps of driving, atonal no-wave, like opener "S.C.U.M," [...]
HANNAH GALVIN is our very own Sydney girl in-the-know. She's a PURPLE SNEAKERS website subeditor and valuable member of our rapidly expanding online community.

Take it away HANNAH ! "As part of Record Store Day for this year, San Fran's TY SEGALL will be releasing a follow [...]
Trois mois après avoir officiellement lancé Fuzz sur les interwebs avec « This Time I Got a Reason » et « Fuzz's Fourth Dream » , Ty Segall et Charles Moothart sont de retour avec « Sleigh Ride, nouveau single, et avec à l'horizon un album qui sera enregistré en mai... Je suis à court de superlatifs pour décrire tout ce que fait Ty Segall, je vous laisse relire tout ce que j'ai pu vous dire sur ce bonhomme depuis 3 ans en cliquant ici .
One score minus 18 years ago (er…two), San Francisco’s father of garage-punk Ty Segall brought forth upon Record Store Day Ty Rex , Goner Records ’ special release 7” EP covering songs from ‘60/‘70s British glam rock band T. Rex . “More!” cried the hordes, and Ty acquiesced, dedicated to the proposition that this second album, innovatively titled Ty Rex 2 , would be created equal to the original. We have come to dedicate a portion of this website as a platform to announce the streaming of [...]
