Fans of genre bending Australian garage-psych rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard should rejoice over the news that the seven-man sound machine is releasing a brand new LP entitled Nonagon Infinity on April 29, available for pre-order here.
Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing yet another Ty Segall show, this time at Danforth Music Hall with support from openers CFM (Charles Moothart’s new band, you might know him from FUZZ).
“I’ll see discussions sometimes, on message boards online, about the sound I get from my guitar,” Mac DeMarco said one overcast February afternoon as we drove around Far Rockaway, Queens.
Wednesday’s packed Ty Segall performance at First Avenue was a harrowing, shriek-filled freak show of sorts, with Ty first emerging in a giant, distorted plastic baby mask and later whipping a (hopefully) fake umbilical cord over the audience.
At some point on Monday, between my morning coffee and heading off to run errands, Ty Segall and the Muggers descended on WGN Morning News.
It was right around the time Ty Segall removed his man baby mask and draped an umbilical cord over my head that I knew it was going to be a weird show.
Ty Segall released the bugged-out psych-rock album Emotional Mugger earlier this year, and last month, he appeared on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show to give one of the weirder, more provocative late-night TV performances in recent memory.
No matter how many albums it takes, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are going to make the world stand up and listen.
When Mac DeMarco was working on his Another One mini-album during the spring of 2015, he achieved what he describes as a state of Zen.
On Saturday, February 27, Ty Segall & The Muggers played the first of two sold-out shows at New York City’s Webster Hall.
If you want to understand how fluid the genre signifier “psych” can be, consider what a vast spectrum of sounds King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have explored throughout their discography.
After dabbling Brubeck-y jazz and gentle acoustics, Australia’s King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are back in hyperactive psych mode on new album Nonagon Infinity, which will be out via ATO on April 29.
Aussie music machine King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have revealed full details of yet another studio album. Following the release of both Quarters and Paper Mache Dream Balloon in 2015, the septet will now follow them up with the April-bound Nonagon Infinity.
Ty Segall and his band the Muggers (King Tuff, Mikal Cronin, and more) performed on the WGN Morning News program in Chicago today.
The reigning hooligan king of indie pop, DeMarco released a mini-album of love songs last summer that revealed, in addition to the nuances of his heart, his home address, complete with an invitation for coffee.
Few people can hypnotize a crowd quite like Ty Segall. Since the release of his self-titled debut back in 2008, Segall has developed a reputation for being a garage-rock whiz kid, his playful live shows and critically acclaimed albums chock-full of theatrical antics and rollicking riffs.
Ty Segall has been all over this site for years, and the reason we keep coming back to his shows is the same reason that he sold out these two nights at Webster Hall last weekend: He’s one of the most exciting live acts around.
Si je découvre King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard avec cet album, ce collectif australien sort en fait son 7ème opus en 3 ans!
Ty Segall, accompanied by his band The Muggers (King Tuff, Mikal Cronin and members from Wand and The Cairo Gang) opened his first night in New York at Webster Hall last Saturday, touring off his January release “Emotional Mugger.”
“Infantile” is a good descriptor of Ty Segall’s current tour. This is not meant as derogatory, as much as a statement of fact.
In a standout moment from Chicago-born songwriter Ezra Furman’s excellent 2015 album Perpetual Motion People, the singer wails “I have got a lousy connection!”
Like so many younger siblings, Jonah Furman latched onto his big brother Ezra when Ezra received a gift that made him instantly cool: a brand-new acoustic guitar for his bar mitzvah.
Ty Segall had method behind his madness as he tore through 9:30 Club on Thursday night showcasing songs from his recent concept album, Emotional Mugger.
Probably the most prolific and reliable dude in rock right now.
Some people go to concerts to hear the band play their songs, others go to watch incredible visual displays that certain band are known to deliver and others go to take part in the sweaty stew that is a large group of fellow music fans unleashing their inhibitions.
Let’s all just take a moment to step back and reflect on what’s been happening in realm of Australian music over the past decade, particularly across the southern coast. To say that the once arid musical wasteland from whence INXS, AC/DC and a slew of other acronymic cock-rockers emerged in the pre-Internet age has undergone […]
Every once in a blue moon, there comes along a band that will raise the musical bar and work standard of how a unit should operate. A rare breed that will continuously challenge what will be expected of them, but in turn keep producing records of such substantial merit that they do not get tiresome, […]
King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Now say it again with an Australian accent. King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Too funny right? This is probably one of my favourite bands, yet such a random one.
The prolific San Francisco garage rocker Ty Segall has a gift for creating breezy pop melodies — which he then loves to warp and bury under avalanches of fuzz.
