San Francisco’s garage rock wunderkind Ty Segall recently announced that his next album Twins will drop later this year. He kindly released the album’s first single “The Hill” yesterday to whet our ear buds. It’s true to Ty form–a massively convulsing parade of fuzzy guitar distortion. There’s an evident Lennon influence in the vocals. His previous album, Goodbye Bread, was a slice of garage rock heaven. It’ll be exciting to see where he takes this next one.
