fuzz - s/t

YES!!!!!!!!  THE LONG AWAITED DEBUT ALBUM FROM FUZZ IS FINALLY HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  TY SEGALL, CHARLIE MOOTHEART AND ROLAND COSIO are NOTHING SHORT OF AN ABSOLUTE PSYCH / GARAGE / STONER ROCK POWER HOUSE AND THEIR NEW S/T LP IS GONNA MELT YER FACE AND CHANGER YER LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what started as a side project to the ever more engaging and prolific explosion that is TY SEGALL AND CO, FUZZ might just eclipse all those excellent albums on DRAG CITY, GONER and IN THE RED........  FUZZ trades in the more standard garage rock formula for an all out attack of PROTO METAL, HARD ROCK, BALLS OUT PSYCH and PUNK RAWK MAYHEM......  think BLUE CHEER, MC5, THE STOOGES, SIR LORD BALTIMORE, DUST, WICKED LADY and SABBATH all mashed up into ONE HIGH OCTANE, POWDER KEG OF RnR EXTREMES !!!!!!!

seriously this is the most in yer face and blistering slab of ROCK N ROLL you'll come across all year long !!!!!!!!  one song is all it'll take and you'll be hooked.

so stop reading and let yer ears convince you how mother fucking good this new FUZZ album is.....it's guaranteed to be all over everyone's year end lists.....and if not, those people surely don't like rock music, cuz FUZZ is what rock n roll is meant to sound like.........

LISTEN TO "FUZZ" BELOW !!!!!!!!!!!!
   and grab a copy from IN THE RED now !!!!!!!




WATCH FUZZ BELOW !!!!!!!!!

fuzz - this time i got a reason 7 inch

well the secret's outta the bag......the mysterious new psych band FUZZ, who just recently released their debut single THIS TIME I GOT A REASON via the always reliable TROUBLE IN MIND RECORDS, is none other than TY SEGALL and CHARLIE MOONHEART rocking a couple new jams in their spare time......

off from tour, these guys have banged out two new ripping psych garage stompers like it was nothing...... released just at the end of 2012, THIS TIME I HAD A REASON made number 2 on tiny grooves' singles of the year list, and that was amidst some pretty stiff competition.......  but you know FUZZ floors you with burning guitar freakouts not heard since the heyday of 70s rock heroes, black sabbath and blue cheer......so it's not surprising that this debut 7 inch blasted it's way into my top records from last year.......

and since charlie and ty have played together in bands for years now, you'd expect for something this cohesive and epic from them......after all they were both in the EPSILONS before ty went solo and recruited charlie for his new band......  and if the ty segall band's lp SLAUGHTERHOUSE was any indication, FUZZ has plenty more acid soaked psych rock bangers up their sleeves just waiting to get pressed to vinyl........

and we might just get that this year.......the rumor is that after a year chock full of new records and non-stop touring, ty and company are gonna slow it down a bit this year.  well sort of.  mikal cronin is set to release his second solo lp on merge later this year, and while he's off touring to support that, we may well just get more FUZZ....... and that my friend would be a good thing......

we all need more FUZZ in our life........

first pressing of this single is outta print, but a second press is on the way.....it's also available as a download if you need this much rock in a more mobile fashion...... so click here to check out TROUBLE IN MIND's site for more deets........

LISTEN TO BOTH SIDES OF THE FUZZ SINGLE BELOW......
  it's totally fucking recommended you garage rock freaks.......

ty segall - twins

today DRAG CITY is releasing TY SEGALL's third full length LP of 2012, "TWINS".....AND IT"S FUCKING KILLER!!!!!!... i wasn't sure he was going to be able to out do the psych jams of his collabo LP "HAIR" with WHITE FENCE or the barn burning 2x10in "SLAUGHTERHOUSE"......but he just out rocked even himself.......

WITH TWINS, TY SEGALL IS GONNA LEAD THE MASSES DOWN A TWISTING AND TURNING FUZZED OUT PSYCHEDELIC ROAD TO FULL ON GARAGE ROCK BLISS........  this is his best album to date, and much much more solid than last year's GOODBYE BREAD (though that's quite the stellar lp as well, i know some of you hated on that lp a little too much).......  WITH CHARLIE MOONHEART, EMILY ROSE and MIKAL CRONIN as his backing band, TY SEGALL raises the bar on GARAGE ROCK tenfold, merging lo-fi punk, classic rock riffage, psych weirdness and good ol' garage stompers into a SWIRL OF MADNESS YOU JUST WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP SPINNING..... seriously TY SEGALL could just retire now, CAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW HE'S GONNA TOP THIS LP........TWINS is ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE........ few lps i've heard this year are this good start to finish........

but don't take my word for it, 
LISTEN TO THE ENTIRETY OF TWINS BELOW.......  
       and go buy it now from DRAG CITY.......

  THIS IS FOR SURE ONE OF THE BEST LPS 
             OF THE YEAR......
      (and it's so fun you might be it on TAPE or CD as well.......)
 

ty segall band - slaughterhouse lp

2012 is the year that TY SEGALL is gonna take over the airwaves, or at least the interwebs..... he's planning to drop at least three awesome new garage / pysch bombs in the form of full lengths this year..... the first lp, HAIR, with WHITE FENCE is already quite the classic around here....and i highly suggest you buy it now from DRAG CITY.....

next up is THE TY SEGALL BAND lp entitled SLAUGHTERHOUSE out JUNE 26TH on IN THE RED......  comprised of TY's touring band (Charlie Moonheart, Mikal Cronin and Emily Rose Epstein), this new album will totally destroy you...... as intense as the best live TY SEGALL show you've ever seen.... they really turn it up all the way and fucking jam.....  i think iggy pop, black sabbath and the mc5 would be proud... 

i can't wait to get my hands on this lp.....  perhaps even more recommended than HAIR, but for sure an album you'll see on my end of the year best of list.......

LISTEN TO WAVE GOODBYE 
AND I BOUGHT MY EYES 
OFF THE NEW LP SLAUGHTERHOUSE BELOW....

and fucking crank it up........
