Mac DeMarco is a Canadian songwriter, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. Born in British Columbia, DeMarco has been making music since 2008, self-releasing a series of albums under the name Makeout Videotape.
The soundtrack also includes Mac DeMarco, Rooney’s Robert Schwartzman, Tonstartssbandht and more. See the tracklist below.
It just goes to show that, even at their most relaxed and reverential, Thee Oh Sees’ feisty, impulsive essence still cuts through loud and clear.
You don’t have to be a psychedelic guitar freak to want to check in once in a while with someone as prolific as John Dwyer, who coaxes truly electric-toothbrush-esque frequencies out of his guitar on Thee Oh Sees’ 13th album’s opener…
Thee Oh Sees will play a free Northside Festival show at McCarren Park in Brooklyn on June 14. This will be the West Coast group’s first New York show since they went on hiatus last year.
The band are coming over to North American for Austin Psych Fest and will be touring afterwards, finishing up here in NYC with shows at Baby’s All Right on May 16 & 17.
Drop opens with some robotic triads, sliding riff-heavy and hard into “Penetrating Eye”. John Dwyer tackles six instruments on the album, including synthesizer, percussion, and the Mellotron – it’s one of his jack-of-all-trades albums…
It’s hard to imagine Salad Days as the peak of DeMarco’s career. He’s still only 23, and if this album is any evidence, he’s still got ample sonic territory to explore.
Drop is a major departure from the band’s previous work, which was often weighed down in heavy guitar riffs and a low rumbling bass that made you want to air guitar while squirming on the ground in your best Iggy Pop impersonation.
Drop continues an impressive 10-year streak during which Thee Oh Sees—under various names and spellings—have put out at least one album every year…Drop plays like some lost weekend at the Fillmore West circa 1966-71.
Everyone’s favorite gap-toothed indie rock British-Canadian persona, Mac DeMarco, has added a second date at the Great American Music Hall on July 8. Unsurprisingly, DeMarco’s July 9 show date sold out faster…
“drop” might imply a fall, it’s not from innocence; it’s the uplifting hope that accompanies a total embrace of chaos. This record is unlike anything you previously thought about Thee Oh Sees; drop your preconceptions at the garage…
We all got a bad scare late last year when the prolific and consistently great garage-psych institution Thee Oh Sees announced their hiatus, but now here we are just a few months later and the band is back with a brand new album.
If you were to bottle up the last few years of California garage rock into a single soda can and pop the lid, that crisp and gratifying release might sound something like Thee Oh Sees, Despite being on supposed “hiatus” status…
Thee Oh Sees are back after all with an unexpected new LP, Drop. Set to release on Record Store Day 2014, the album is an energetic dive straight back into the electric pool of psychedelic rock n’ roll that Thee Oh Sees are known for.
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.
doubly significant for Thee Oh Sees: Not only do the garage-rock kings have a new album coming out (Drop, due April 19), but the summer gig will also mark the band’s first Bay Area performance since frontman John Dwyer relocated…
Mac DeMarco takes #1 spot on CMJ’s charts
Rumors of Thee Oh Sees’ hiatus have been greatly exaggerated: the California psych mainstays will release their new album Drop on April 19 (Record Store Day), via frontman John Dwyer’s Castle Face label.
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.
…culminating in the Merge 25 festival in Carrboro, NC from July 23 – 26. They’ve just released the full line-up which now includes appearances from…Amor de Días, Saint Rich, The Music Tapes, Vertical Scratchers, Hospitality, and Mikal Cronin
…I heard Mac DeMarco’s brand-new album “Salad Days” for the first time and thought: Yes. I get this. The laid-back grooviness, the moments of introspection undermined by cheeky apathy and hints of l’enfant terrible.
What hiatus? Thee Oh Sees are getting ready to release a new album called Drop on April 19 (Record Store Day) via frontman John Dwyer’s label Castle Face. Now, it looks like they’ve planned a few shows.
Bay Area garage-rock torchbearers Thee Oh Sees announced a hiatus late last year, but not before they recorded Drop, a psychedelic Lemonhead of a new album that’ll be out later this month.
With a tongue-twisting band name, these Melburnian kids have been churning out tunes with no sign of halting.
