He’s the prince of the grimy, cigarette-stained musical underworld. He’s one of the busiest artists around, having released seventeen albums through various outlets, not even counting his seven solo albums. He’s loved by nearly every weirdo with a sweet tooth for raunchy rock and roll. He is Ty Segall…
It’s certainly the most accomplished work in the steadily rising, notoriously musically incontinent career of the 27-year-old phenom of the San Francisco garage-rock scene (recently resettled in L.A.). Before this, Segall already had produced seven or eight estimable solo albums, depending how you count, in the blink of six or seven years…
newest album, Manipulator is different: more produced and polished. Segall came to NPR West to talk about the album with NPR’s Arun Rath — and play a few songs for us…
While most contemporary bands force and market this cool, Segall is probably too concerned with recording his next three albums to care about what rock ‘n’ roll mystique means. He’s the leader of the pack of bands like White Fence, Mikal Cronin and Fuzz, all of whom save rock from the stale nü-grunge sounds time and time again…
Ty Segall is a musician who doesn’t sit still. He’s been cranking out albums at a crazy pace for much of his career, and his pace has only increased over time…
Since popping the cork on his career back in 2008, Ty Segall has become synonymous with the word “prolific.” But unlike so many artists who commit their every passing whim to tape, in Segall’s case, it’s not just an impulsive quirk or random data dump—it’s the very engine that pushes him to greater heights…
Segall has always existed head and shoulders above just about anyone else in the retro-garage rock scene that birthed him, but that says more about the scene than it does about Segall…
Ty’s new one is excellent and since it’s a double album, I thought we would play three tracks. You can check the listing below and see what we’re getting up to…
Ty Segall has announced he will undertake his biggest Australian tour to date this December, while in the country as part of Meredith Music Festival 2014….
There are few rock performers as ridiculously prolific as California garage rocker Ty Segall, and even fewer whose quality level is as consistently high…
They talked about Segall’s family, his childhood, his tinnitus, his bands, John Dwyer, and Mikal Cronin. They also broke down his discography…
Since 2008, Segall has been channeling his inner Zappa, pumping out records by the fistful and embracing a singularly eclectic style…
On this week’s episode of All Songs Considered, prolific fuzz-rock mastermind Ty Segall joins host Robin Hilton to share some of the music that shaped his new album Manipulator and a behind-the-scenes look into his recording process…
Ty Segall’s much anticipated LP Manipulator, which is set to be released on August 25th, carries that eclectic SoCal sound that he has stapled throughout his musical pursuits…
Fortunately, Manipulator is rich enough to provide fodder for a 30-minute conversation. Aside from a contribution here or there from outside musicians on a handful of tracks, Segall recorded everything on Manipulator himself.
Spending the past two years releasing three solo albums, a collaborative LP with White Fence, and debuting his brand new band Fuzz, Ty Segall has announced the release of a new standalone LP, Manipulator.
But then there’s Ty Segall. He’s churned out an album every year since he started releasing music, not to mention all those side projects, collaborative albums, EPs, singles, and producing gigs.
The ceaseless Ty Segall has somehow made it six months into 2014 with no word of a new release, but never fear: the now L.A.-based fuzz-rock fixture has announced his next LP. Manipulator is out August 26 on Drag City.
By the time August 26 rolls around it’ll have been more than a full year since the release Ty Segall’s last studio album, Sleeper. That’s a pretty brief refractory period for most bands, but in Segall years, that’s like, an eternity, man.
With three whole months till the August 26 release of his latest garage-y psych-rock opus, Manipulator, the ever-frenetic Ty Segall is getting restless. Dude does not like downtime. So naturally, he’s crashing the worldwide club circuit.
Ty Segall has announced plans for his new album, ‘Manipulator’. The album will be released by Drag City on August 26 and features 17 songs. It follows last year’s ‘Sleeper’.
Last time we heard from Ty Segall was the release of his band Fuzz’s cover of the Kinks, but now the fuzz-rock savant has announced his next LP entitled Manipulator.
Just by drifting past Ty Segall, it was striking how loud it was. His albums usually consist of a sort of lofi garage rock, but the live show was straight up punk. Segall seemed very concerned with the health of his crowd…
Ty Segall was at Coachella last weekend, where he ran through an hour-long set that included some new songs, cuts from his Ty Segall Band project, and a cover of Motörhead’s “Motörhead”.
Ty Segall was at Coachella last weekend, where he ran through an hour-long set that included some new songs, cuts from his Ty Segall Band project, and a cover of Motörhead’s “Motörhead”.
As if to illustrate the point, late in his gloriously loud and raucous set, Segall covered “Mötörhead” by Mötörhead, one of a handful of truly heavy bands at the fest.
Watching Ty Segall at the Outdoor Theatre to kick off my Saturday drove home a 2014 Coachella reality: the relative lack of noisy, guitar-driven bands.
With a return to the main Ty Segall Band lineup featuring Mikal Cronin on guitar, Charlie Moonhart on bass, and Emily Rose Epstein on drums, the band played in full electric glory. The set pulled from multiple albums…
When I caught Ty Segall at FYF Fest last summer in LA, he was touring behind 2013’s folky Sleeper, and his set was appropriately seated and subdued. When he hit Vegas two months later, he got heavy and hypnotic, with psych-rock trio Fuzz.
A primal scream plunged the crowd into mass hysteria. In anticipation, the swirling maelstrom of bodies flailed back and forth, as the sea of sweaty concertgoers surged forward and headliner Ty Segall broke into the chorus of “Finger.”
