MOVE reviews Ty Segall

He’s the prince of the grimy, cigarette-stained musical underworld. He’s one of the busiest artists around, having released seventeen albums through various outlets, not even counting his seven solo albums. He’s loved by nearly every weirdo with a sweet tooth for raunchy rock and roll. He is Ty Segall…

SPIN announce Ty Segall Manipulator as Album of a Year

It’s certainly the most accomplished work in the steadily rising, notoriously musically incontinent career of the 27-year-old phenom of the San Francisco garage-rock scene (recently resettled in L.A.).

225 reviews Ty Segall

While most contemporary bands force and market this cool, Segall is probably too concerned with recording his next three albums to care about what rock ‘n’ roll mystique means.

Pitchfork reviews Ty Segall’s Manipulator

Since popping the cork on his career back in 2008, Ty Segall has become synonymous with the word “prolific.” But unlike so many artists who commit their every passing whim to tape, in Segall’s case, it’s not just an impulsive quirk or random data dump—it’s the very engine that pushes him to greater heights…

Seattle Weekly News reviews Mac DeMarco

Mac DeMarco is the real deal. On his second full-length record, Salad Days, the onetime Montreal-based singer/songwriter emits a toxic vapor of addicting warbles, slicked-up melodies, and hooks you can’t shake. The result is reminiscent of the softer side of Ween, if only brothers Gene and Dean had hooked up with Pavement in its prime. […]

Vice reviews White Fence’s new music video

Gigwise reviews Mac DeMarco at Green Man Festival
