Mixtape: Fifteen great songs by Ty Segall (Podcast #251)
Our latest podcast episode surveys the music of San Francisco’s Ty Segall, an artist whose prolific and acclaimed solo output hit a new peak with the release of Goodbye Bread yesterday on Drag City. The album is being hailed as a new chapter for Segall, one that finds him successfully employing cleaner sounds in a batch of melodic psych-rock. That the new album is excellent isn’t a surprise for long-time fans: over the past several years, Ty has put out a legion of terrific records incorporating elements of lo-fi, surf, punk, garage and psych-pop. This mixtape captures fifteen great Ty Segall tracks in a survey of the artist’s solo career so far. Goodbye Bread is likely to establish Segall as a bigger name, but this mix confirms that he’s been releasing exciting music for quite a while now.
