Vol. 3 is the best of these singles collections yet, with some downright gems and curious if imperfect steps into the unknown. Most importantly, it shows that Dwyer and Thee Oh Sees are far from settling into a groove….
Mikal Cronin is the next generation of alt-rocker. He was born in 1985 but his music channels early Redd Kross with salivating, no holds barred freakouts that switch between noise and pop.
“It’s good to start with a bang, and then lead them somewhere weird,” says Mikal Cronin, summing up the philosophy behind his second solo LP and first for Merge Records, MCII.
Thee Oh Sees aren’t breaking any new ground on Singles Collection Volume 3. Instead, long-time fans who have a completist urge will find owning these tracks in one stylish package to be a necessity…
Canada’s goofball, over-achieving slacker-core overlord and his equally loose and lucid band will be playing Meredith Music Festival on Saturday and hanging around for Sunday bloody (Mary) Sunday.
The drums thump a back beat with the determination of a toddler wielding a toy hammer, the bass line jigs in place, and Dwyer rips open his guitar to the skies…. For him and for his faithful, it’s a gathering place.
It was high time we caught up with Ezra Furman. Between leaving his band, the Harpoons, moving across the country and putting out two excellent records this year (The Year of No Returning and Day of the Dog), there was a lot that we were overdue for a chat about.
Mac DeMarco and his band played the 2013 M for Montreal twice last week. First, as Walter TV, where Mac just plays bass, with Pierce McGarry on vocals and guitar. Then on Saturday night, he headlined the 1000-capacity Club Soda.
Montreal-based indie rocker Mac DeMarco, who released his debut album, 2, last October via Captured Tracks, which was a longlisted nominee for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize, performed at The Hoxton in Toronto last night…
…the label currently home to Japandroids, Of Montreal, Xiu Xiu, Deerhoof, Saturday Looks Good to Me, the Dodos, and more, has announced a 2014 7″ singles series. Participating artists are Cloud Nothings, Mikal Cronin…

Thee Oh Sees have always had plenty of non-album songs to spare, and the Bay Area garage outfit are collecting a chunk of them on their upcoming Singles Collection Volume 3
Over the last 16 years, Bay Area garage rockers Thee Oh Sees have built up quite the sizable discography, including some 12 full-lengths, dozens of singles and EPs, and countless more contributions to various compilations.
Two of Montreal’s biggest noisemakers internationally in 2013 on one late-night bill. They have little in common musically, although both are essentially telling their personal stories with refreshing directness.
A 23 ANS, MAC DEMARCO EN EST DÉJÀ À SON 7ÈME ALBUM. LE CANADIEN AUX DENTS DU BONHEUR FAIT SURTOUT PARLER DE LUI POUR SES FRASQUES SUR SCÈNE. POURTANT, LORS DU PICTHFORK FESTIVAL…
Canadian ‘King of Slacker Rock’ artist Mac DeMarco exploded onto the international indie rock scene mid last year with the release of his second album 2…
Hear Ty Segall’s cover of the David Bowie hit Moonage Daydream performed at his SiriusXM U Sessions.
The early highlight of the day was Canada’s Mac Demarco, whose band tore through solid renditions of all the garage rocker’s best songs before winding down with a highly irreverent…
Music-festival staples, tireless tourdogs, frequent visitors to all the big cities — we’ve seen more Oh Sees shows than it’s worth recounting here. But on Friday, an especially psyched crowd made for an especially berserk set.
Of every band playing Fun Fun Fun Fest this weekend, Thee Oh Sees will be the one that I love unconditionally, but will not understand. It’s the generation gap in action.
Lovable sleazeball Mac DeMarco is known for his slippery jangle pop and his so-called “jizz jazz” brand of rock’n’roll, but he’s showcasing a softer side of his sound by releasing a new acoustic EP.
It makes more sense when you watch it. A blurry, flickering callout to B-movies of old, the “The Man Man” video sees Ty himself being stalked by a car full of creepy creatures.
Where has Ezra Furman been hiding? Already on his fifth album (albeit his first with new band The Boyfriends backing him) this Chicago-based singer-songwriter offers a bratty, ragged take on New York Dolls, Spector-era Ramones and E Street Band carnival rock, revealing a gift for crafting freeway-cruisin’ tunes served with an extra helping of roadkill.
Panache is really excited to return to Austin, Texas for one of our favorite festivals, Fun Fun Fun. We’ll have over ten artists performing through out the weekend doing both festival shows and nites events. Excited to be see Thee Oh Sees, Mac Demarco, The Men, Bleached, OBN IIIS, Blind Shake, Saint Rich, Coliseum, Fat […]
On December 3, the garage rock gatekeepers will share the franchise’s second installment: a four-track platter documenting a recent set that SPIN cover star Ty Segall played with Fuzz at the SF Eagle.
It’s another blistering demonstration of Thee Oh Sees greatest trick: they’re the only prolific band who doesn’t put out records often enough.
Mac’s apologetic ode to his loved ones about such public behavior, shows that Mac DeMarco is still with us, coming along for the ride, getting everyone else in trouble. Even so, the maturation process of Mac DeMarco…
Ty Segall’s latest video accompanies “The Man Man” from Sleeper, his psychedelic, folk-leaning LP out this year via Drag City.
