CU Independent reviews Ty Segall’s sold out show at The Bluebird
While Manipulator itself is fast-paced, Segall delivered every song with a raw energy that made each track explode.

Ninth Ward puppeteers, inventors and organ-rockers Mr. Quintron and Miss Pussycat will release Spellcaster II: Death in Space on October 28th.
As the venue’s soundman hurried to cover his gear with tarps and the audience fretted over a potential cancellation, Segall strode onstage and began raging in the rain.
We now have details on the new Quintron & Miss Pussycat album. It’s titled Spellcaster II: Death In Space and will be out October 28 On Pizza Burglar Records. The new record is a mix of their signature organ-driven party jams and droney, atmospheric instrumentals. We’ve got the premiere of “Do the Raid,” which definitely […]

Fans can expect nothing but unique beats and sugary-sweet flutes and harmonicas doused with attitude and intricate lyricism from I’m In Your Mind Fuzz.
Name a band that starts with Led or ends in Sabbath or any other band that was accused of turning the fair youth of the ‘70s into devil-witches. These are the anachronistic peers of Ty Segall — the raw, nasty, fuzzed out musician who is returning rock to its roots.
Last week, Mayor Rahm Emanuel declared September 23 to be “David Bowie Day” in Chicago. Ty Segall happened to be playing a show in Chicago that day, so he performed a medley of Bowie songs during his encore.
Perhaps no artist has become as revered in garage rock circles in such short order as Ty Segall.
He obliterated any subtleties during his performance at The Danforth Music Hall on September 21st as Segall and his band delivered a blunt force trauma inducing set that exposed the raw proto-punk DNA beneath the glammy sheen of Manipulator.
Julian Casablancas has enlisted some pretty exciting acts to open his upcoming US tour. Between October and November, The Strokes’ frontman will share the stage with Mr Twin Sister, Mac DeMarco, and Shabazz Palaces.
Somewhat bewildered and almost entirely unhinged, Ezra Furman’s idiosyncratic blend of punk-fried and pop embellished noise is nothing short of revelatory.
To say that Melburnian’s King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have gathered a bit of momentum in their short time together would be one hell of an understatement.
After nailing a string of songs from “Manipulator,” Segall actually apologized to Boston for not being here for so long. Looking around the room as he and the other musicians blistered the crowd with older songs like “Thank God for the Sinners,” I think it’s safe to say we forgave him.

I’m not sure there is a currently working musician who produces as consistently excellent music — live or on record — at does Ty Segall.
Arcade Fire’s Reflektor, Drake’s Nothing Was the Same, Mac DeMarco’s Salad Days, Chromeo’s White Women, Owen Pallett’s In Conflict, Tim Hecker’s Virgins, Yamantaka // Sonic Titan’s UZU, Timber Timbre’s Hot Dreams, Tanya Tagaq’s Animism, Shad’s Flying Colours, Jessy Lanza’s Pull My Hair Back, and Basia Bulat’s Tall Tall Shadow are were all up for the […]
In an unexpected turn of events, throat singer Tanya Tagaq has beat out formidable nominees like Arcade Fire, Drake (Nothing Was The Same), Mac DeMarco (Salad Days), and Owen Pallett (In Conflict) to win the award for Canada’s best album.
Manipulator possesses a power-pop sensibility, thanks to its candy-bright hooks and Segall’s sometimes audaciously refined enunciation. The end result is a take on rock that could exist only in the 21st century, in part because its inspirations aren’t limited to one particular offshoot or era.
Stage crashers were welcome to stay and ham it up for as long as they wanted, or until the guitar stacks blasted them off into the swarming crowd. The everyman who also happens to be a guitar god, that’s our Ty.
Last night (9/18), Ty Segall played his second of two Webster Hall shows which was just as bonkers as the first night, with a constant stream of (gentle) stage divers and crowdsurfers, including Ty himself where atop the audience he sang his last song of the night.
Has anyone ever been to a bad Ty Segall show? At this point in the 20-something’s career, it seems like everyone expects the best of him without being disappointed.
You don’t need 3D glasses or weed to enjoy the Krautrock locomotion and searing psychedelic leads chugging along with hypnotizing shapes and colors, but it probably wouldn’t hurt.
Playing tracks of this year’s Manipulator as well as offerings from all over his packed discography, Segall delivered a rage-inducing performance that had fans of all ages, sex, and types jumping on stage and diving into the crowd.
Garage rock’s most prolific prodigy is not only hitting the ‘Sup as part of the Meredith Music Festival 2014 lineup this December, but he’s also undertaking his biggest Australian tour to date to coincide with the latest addition to his enormous discography.
Musical genius Ty Segall has just delighted us with an interactive video to accompany the opening and title track off his latest solo LP, Manipulator. Welcomed globally with wide-stretched arms, the latest record is as wonderful as we’d anticipated…
The Melbourne psych-rock band King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard recently released “Cellophane” from their upcoming album I’m In Your Mind Fuzz, and now they’ve released a 3D music video for the song, directed by Jason Galea.
The track is frantically energetic, employing crazy spurts of spastic lead guitar and harmonica in all the right places. Today, the band dropped a video for the song that matches its energy perfectly.
Melbourne lords of Psychedelia, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, have upped the ante by releasing one of the most vomit-inducing, trippy music videos this year.
The band took out the competition’s new emerging artist category last year, scoring the $50,000 Global Music Grant to boost its international profile through recording, touring and marketing…
