Acoustics held high, Corey Madden (Color Green) and Ty Segall make their debut bow as Freckle and their self-titled LP reminds all of us that when the clouds are out, you can still get sunburned.
Lead single "Taraval" pulses with a heart-tugging progression, fluidly running the changes. This bristling, sunshiny tone offsets a moody vocal melody – Ty’s tenor voice paired with Corey’s baritone – lending the tune a searching...
It seems awhile ago, but it wasn’t – not in days and months...or whatever time is. But in terms of phases – we’ve been in and out of all kinds of bags since last summer, right? There’s "us" before we heard the rest that 2022 had to offer, and then there’s us today. And coming on seven months later, fresh as it still is, “Hello, Hi” is disappearing in the...

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...
Ty Segall has made whole records that wrestle with realities - fighting against some, pulling mightily to bring others into being. His new self-titled record - the next record after Emotional Mugger, Manipulator, Sleeper, Twins, Goodbye Bread, Melted, Lemons and the first self-titled album that started it up in the now-distant year of 2008 - is a clean flow, a wash of transparency falling into a world that needs to...
