TY SEGALL
San Fran garage-punker (and former one man bander) Ty Segall pens crackling classic-sounding rock'n'roll tunes about as lean and economical as they come, pushing his rangy shoutalong hooks so far forward there's rarely room for pesky little details like verses. Burying '60s sing-alongs and dance crazes beneath waves of reverb and giddy thud, Segall has carved out his own shelf in the SF neo-psych garage alongside SF compatriots and collaborators Sic Alps and Thee Oh Sees. In just a few years, he's garnered comparisons to a wide swath of artists, from Nuggets-friendly English bands like the Troggs and the Pretty Things, to working-class American menace-peddlers like the Stooges and Ramones, to early recordings by the White Stripes, down to the late Jay Reatard, a significant guidepost for Segall.
