Austin Chronicle reviews Mac DeMarco at Stubb’s

“The set, which touched on favorites from each of his four studio albums, clocked in at about an hour and a half, normally too slight to be satisfactory, but it worked with DeMarco’s rapid-fire pacing. And a quick scan of the audience as they filed out showed that they heeded his call. Relaxed? Check. Enjoyed […]

Maxim preview Fuzz’s new LP “Fuzz II”

MixDown Magazine Shares Fuzz’s ‘Rat Race’

“The new release comes of the back of the band’s 2013 self titled debut LP Fuzz, released through independent Californian record label In The Red Records. Very little has been said by the band about this latest release. The band seems to be content with letting the music do the talking.

LA Weekly Talks to Fuzz about their upcoming album

“the Ty Segall-fronted (or backed, since he sings from behind the drum kit) project has gained a new bassist: Chad Ubovich, mastermind behind one of our favorite groups to emerge out of the local scene in 2014, Meatbodies. And when it came time to write their forthcoming LP, Fuzz II, out Oct. 23 on In […]

Brooklyn Vegan Cover Ezra Furman at Their CMJ Showcase

“Then Ezra Furman took things up a notch with a spirited, sax-fueled set. Furman’s a charismatic, charming guy and between the confessional, storytelling nature of many of his songs and folk-rock style, it’s all a little late-’80s Violent Femmes yet there’s nobody else quite like him…”

The Village voice Covers Ezra Furman at the Panache CMJ showcase

“In a raucous headlining set for Panache Booking’s showcase at the Knitting Factory on Wednesday, Ezra Furman proved why his brand of snarling glam-punk goes above and beyond mere posturing and into essential territory. Clad in a plaid school-girl skirt, with pearls around his neck and lipstick on his face, the purple-haired, gender-fluid Furman delivered […]

Northern Transmissions review Fuzz’s “II”

“The opener, “Time Collapse Pt II./ The 7th Terror” has Segalls’ vocals screaming over the coming doom no one can escape. “Let it Live” comes with an opening riff that rattles over Chad Ubovich’s bass and Segall’s more than competent drumming. The song comes to a close with a wailing string section, which scratches itself […]

The Rockaway Times Speaks with Mac DeMarco

“Mac DeMarco discovered Rockaway the way so many others since 1977 have. “Probably from the Ramones song, I think,” he said. DeMarco is a star in the indie-rock scene and prior to the recording of his most recent album Another One, he began looking for a new home base…”

NPR Stream Fuzz’s “II”

“With a new Fuzz album, though, Segall is back in the spotlight, playing drums with his power trio of guitarist Charlie Moothart (Moonhearts) and bassist Chad Ubovich (Meatbodies). This time around, he heaves forth an impressive 14-song double album made for headbanging and the cultivation of bad vibes, as if all the warmth and goodwill […]

GØGGS “She Got Harder” Release on 7″

“She Got Harder” (out on a 7″ in November) doesn’t read like three dudes serving the base by capitalizing on name recognition. This is music that’s exciting on its own merits, and impressively, it isn’t dwarfed by their collective discography.

The 405 shares Levitation 2016 lineup featuring Ty Segall

“Leading the bill is Brian-fucking-Wilson, who will be performing Beach Boys’ 1966 masterpiece Pet Sounds in full, which is worth the ticket price alone. Joining him will be Animal Collective, Ty Segall, Sleep, Flying Lotus, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, and Lee Scratch Perry. Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats and Black Mountains complete the first wave […]

The State Press Feature Ty Segall

“Segall’s last few years have been remarkably prolific. Since 2008, every year has seen a Segall solo album. He has also released handfuls of singles and EPs, collaborated with several other bands and is on tour relentlessly. The kicker to all of this is his age — he’s only 28…”

Noisey Premieres King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard’s “Trapdoor”

“Melbourne-based King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard started in 2010 and has slowly but surely evolved from garage band and into psychedelia, krautrock, and experimentalism. With their latest effort Paper Mâché Dream Balloon, due on November 13 via ATO Records, the expands that blueprint further. Their latest track “Trapdoor” is a funky one, using a […]

The Guardian Interviews Mac DeMarco

“DeMarco is one of the most distinctive songwriters in modern guitar music, his songs recalling the hazy romance of a more innocent era, a sound that rouses an incongruously seething mosh pit from the DeMarco-clones at his raucous gigs…”
