Ty Segall Announces Posession

I likely don’t jam to Ty Segall as much as I once did, but it’s always nice to check in on one of the most prolific artists progress, especially as he announces his new LP, Possession, today. Our opening listen sees him traveling back to the power ballads of classic rock, working on a bouncing organ and thumping bass to set the musical scene. It’s interesting to listen to a track where Ty’s guitar work is not the selling point, at least not in a lot of the verses, as that’s where I feel like he made his bread in the early days. That said, the latter half of the song sees him break into more of the expected jam territory, letting the guitar free into the world and driving forth with a bit of emphasis. His new album will be out on May 30th via Drag City.

Ethereal Pop from Saskatchewan

saskatchewanIf you were following us during SXSW you’d know we tossed a tiny gathering with Father Daughter Records (among others), so we’re lucky to have a new tune from the label to share with you by Saskatchewan.  Earlier this month they released a more somber affair, which I’ve got down at the bottom for you to stream, but this new jam is much more light-hearted, sonically speaking.  It has many of the signature moves of the group, such as a stuttering guitar line, and percussion for accents; it all leaves you with the sense of floating, perfect for drifting off to sleep.  The label will release the band’s debut, Occasion, on April 30th.
