Ty Segall “Three Bells” releases January 26th, 2024 (tomorrow!) – it’s so new the shrink wrap is still on. Drag City Records. Double LP. Ty’s 15th LP release (under Ty Segall; he’s in a million other projects too). Since I just got this record (early!), I’m only on my second listen but it’s awesomely psychedelically rocking, buzzed and fuzzed – reliably excellent Ty Segall.

We all got a sneak peek into the vibe of this latest release back in September with the single “Eggman” which is a great, super-weird T.Rex-ish track with an ever weirder video. I’m fairly certain he played it when we saw him this past October and would have happily paid extra (oh wait, we were on the guest list!) to see him eat eggs hilariously/disturbingly like he does here:

My top track is the super-groovy, wicked ass-shaking “ I Hear” which is all bass and beats, massive buzzy, bendy guitar. I also really like the opener “The Bell” which has a 60’s psych/twee thing going on: think Donovan but then morphs into a Zeppelin IV jam and “Move” which is sung by, I think, his wife Denée Segall: it’s weird as hell. Since Three Bells technically isn’t out yet, I can’t include any links for those tracks…and likely will not remember to come back to edit this post so go look them up online starting tomorrow [UPDATE: I remembered to come back and include links!]. In the meantime, here’s a delightful video from the Three Bells track “My Best Friend” which is available – it’s not one of my top tracks but Ty’s best friend is simply adorable so I’m 100% including it.
