  • S Album of the Week: the Slackers
    Rob’s Album Of The Week: The Slackers Ska is a genre that has been in a bit of a crossroads over the past few years. It’s kind of in the same position punk rock was in the late 2000s, out of the limelight but still around somewhat, and there’s a dedicated fan base still packing venues to dance to the rhythms. For 25 years The Slackers from New York City have been keeping two tone alive and they’re not going away. Furthering the latter is their brand new self-titled album coming out on February 19. Bringing that trademark jazzy spin on the genre, Vic Ruggiero and crew haven’t slowed down at all since coming up from Manhattan in 1991. The groovy sextet from The Big Apple incorporates a bit of psychedelia and garage rock in their latest release. Each track brings something different; a few are heavy with the horns while others have the keys as the base of the entire song. It definitely makes the experience a stimulating one. It’ll be difficult to grow bored while diving to this one. Ruggiero also brings that laid back soul he’s known for to keep everything timeless. Is Ska due for the 4th Wave? Only time will tell. It’ll take a bunch of kids rejuvenating the rude boy ideal and that’s only a small part of what it’ll take. A big part of this weekly review are my top tracks off of the Album Of The Week. Open wide, take a bite, repeat and get your fill.

  • Ty Segall Presents “Radio” Off First Taste, New Album Due August 2Nd Via Drag City ​ ​
    July 1, 2019 For Immediate Release Ty Segall Presents “Radio” Off First Taste, New Album Due August 2nd Via Drag City ​ ​ Listen HERE ​ Tickets for Special LA + NYC Residencies On Sale Now; LA Residency Kicks Off This Month Photo Credit: Denée Segall ​ Ty Segall presents “Radio,” a new single from his forthcoming album, First Taste, due ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ August 2nd via Drag City. Just in time for the July 4th festivities (such as they are), “Radio” ​ should satisfy all our barely-subsumed bloodlust and immutable desire to rule while also providing a majestically boomboxable anthem to revel along with at the cookout. As “Taste,” a number that “churns like a buzzsaw without forfeiting any melody” (Rolling ​ ​ ​ Stone), continues to rise at radio, new single “Radio” sizzles with koto by Segall, saxophone ​ and piano by Mikal Cronin, bass by Emmett Kelly, percussion and drums by Segall and ​ ​ ​ ​ Charles Moothart, and back up vocals by Shannon Lay. Through layered vocals, Segall ​ ​ ​ describes shedding an old identity, adopting a new one and accepting what he cannot change: “It makes me feel like I am living for free // While I’m watching the new radio // My ​ anger has gone away // Replaced by my new name // I’m no longer empty // I need no family.” “‘Radio’ is a science non-fiction song,” says Segall. “We live in a Cronenberg film. It has ​ ​ ​ Videodrome saxoheadphones. I am a slave to the new radio and so are you.” First Taste is an introspective set for Ty Segall after the extroversions of 2018’s Freedom’s ​ ​ Goblin, yet just as steeped in hard beats.

  • Ty Segall Announces New Album, ​First Taste
    June 4, 2019 For Immediate Release Ty Segall Announces New Album, First Taste, Due August 2nd ​ ​ Via Drag City, and Releases “Taste” Video/Single ​ Support for LA + NYC Residencies Announced (photo credit - Denée Segall) “Our salivating makes it all taste worse,” croons Ty Segall in “Taste,” the lead single / video ​ ​ ​ ​ from his forthcoming album, First Taste, due August 2nd via Drag City. He’s talking about ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ us: how we’re the masters of our own destiny, tellers of our own prophecy, makers of our own sickened choices. It’s a warning, but this time, the finger is pointing back at him too. He’s one with us. First Taste is an introspective set for Segall after the extroversions of 2018’s ​ ​ Freedom’s Goblin. Lines of struggle wind through the songs as Segall reflects on family, ​ re-encountering pasts, anticipating futures. He skates through oneness, self-esteem, the parents – all the joys of a rain-filled childhood – while reaching outward in the here and now, feeling for a shared pulse. Meanwhile, the production is far out! Segall’s creative juices suggested some radical (in the older sense of the word) new instrumental territories: koto, recorder, bouzouki, harmonizer, mandolin, saxophones and brass, voices, and a sprinkling of keys. Segall occupies the drumset whenever it’s heard on the left speaker, while Charles Moothart plays the kit on the ​ ​ right side. Segall’s vocal prowess sits in fresh relief against his mutant orchestra, spooling tension through some of his most patient songs, his feral scream in complete control. Whatever the mood is, the pedal is pushed cleanly to the metal — and that means to the max of the lightest ballads ever, OR through the most raging rocks yet.

  • S Top 10 Tracks of February
    Mike D’s Top 10 Tracks of February 1. Grimes “Flesh Without Blood” I almost never dance, which is to say I am sure that I am a terrible dancer. That being said, I hope no one ever catches me listening to this song. This infectious pop single off Grime’s November release Art Angels is a strange cross of ’80s pop and Dance Dance Revolution Korean K-Pop that makes this awkward man dance. The lyric “I love you almost every day” can sum up so many of my non-family relationships. I don’t think I would sign up for this track on paper, but I do love this song. Grimes isn’t for everyone; most people I ask remember Grimes as the act they didn’t like that opened for Lana Del Rey last summer. I’m not that down on her, but its not my wheelhouse. However there is no denying this track regardless of you how you feel about her other material. Hopefully you don’t see me in the gym when it comes on, dancing like funky Frankenstein. 2. Ty Segall “California Hills” By the time I finish writing this sentence, Ty Segall will have finished at least two albums one way or another. The latter part of 2015 saw the 29-year-old California native release a compilation of previously recorded T Rex covers called, of course, Ty Rex and also metal album from his side project Fuzz called II. “California Hills” off his 2016 release Emotional Mugger starts off like prime era T Rex distorted glam bliss and slowly turns into a classic ’70s blues metal jam, going back and forth, blending and going everywhere between back and forth a few times.
