…DeMarco’s new album is also ostensibly one where the chill bro gets all mature and stuff, and here his inner conflicts return with a suitably nonchalant vengeance. The title track undercuts its narrator’s worries about aging…
So while some find his behavior repugnant, others are enthralled with his youthful abandon; either way, within the often faceless world of modern guitar rock, DeMarco demands attention by not giving a fuck.
If you’ve been keeping up with Mikal Cronin’s discography, you’ll be quick to note that on the A-side of his new LAMC single (out April 1 via Famous Class), some less-than-familiar elements crop up.
Thee Oh Sees have released an animated video for “The Lens”, a recent track from the forthcoming record Drop, which comes out April 19 via John Dwyer’s Castle Face imprint.
There’s no easy way to describe Melbourne’s King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. It’s easy to call them “psychedelic” since their sound is often collaged and erratic, but on Oddments, they’re so many things.
Thee Oh Sees’ follow-up to Floating Coffin, Drop, is out April 19 (Record Store Day) via John Dwyer’s Castle Face Records. They’ve already shared album cut “Penetrating Eye”. Now, check out “The Lens”.

Yes, it’s officially titled Salad Days, and it’s out April 1 via Captured Tracks. Check out new single “Passing Out Pieces” in the promo video for the record, below, and also find the album tracklist and tour dates below.
“Passing Out Pieces” sounds like DeMarco finally acknowledging his predilection for the wrong crowd, contrasting a bit of self-reckoning with that omnipresent, gap-tooted smile…
So when Fuzz tackle the Kinks’ “Till the End of the Day”, the power trio unsurprisingly rip through a fast, beefed up, fuzzed out version of the song that’s front-to-back exhilarating.
The latest installment features Fuzz doing a Kinks cover, and for the B-side, they’ve tapped their former tourmates, the San Francisco sludge punks CCR Headcleaner.
No, the new Mac DeMarco album isn’t a pussy-obsessed record called Eddie’s Dream. He told Edmonton radio station CKUA that it’s called Salad Days, and it’s out in April. He also performed acoustic renditions of new songs.
Mikal Cronin makes the creation of strummy, jangly, shout-along songs seem as easy and natural as opening a window and letting the breeze whip past your steering wheel.
Sleeper makes it more obvious that, while Segall remains really good at yelling, he doesn’t have to do it forever if he doesn’t want to.
NXNE will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2014. The festival takes place June 13-22 in Toronto. The initial lineup has been announced, and it includes St. Vincent, Danny Brown, Mac DeMarco…

Ty Segall’s latest video accompanies “The Man Man” from Sleeper, his psychedelic, folk-leaning LP out this year via Drag City.
Mikal Cronin has shared a video for his MCII highlight “Peace of Mind”. It was directed by Lara Gallagher and stars Mary Timony of Wild Flag and Helium as a hotel maid who doesn’t seem to be having a good day on the job.

But again, while everybody gets their individual moment to shine, it’d be short-sighted to pick an MVP in Fuzz. This album finds strength in the loud, jam-centric…
Mac DeMarco has announced a world tour in continued support of last year’s 2 LP.

This time, we spoke with prolific rocker Ty Segall, who has two new albums: the just-released Sleeper and the debut self-titled record from his band Fuzz, due out October 1 via In the Red.
…10 tracks of similarly hued songs, all of a piece. It’s his most focused album, with every song’s tone easily flowing into the next, and it’s also one of his best.
