1. Ty Segall & White Fence—“Scissor People”

    This song rips so hard—I’ve had it on repeat for the past few days. With Mikal Cronin playing bass, this is basically the Dream Team of garage rock. Sit back and watch the fireworks.

    Ty Segall & White Fence—“I Am Not A Game”

  3. Nine of those songs would perfectly in a movie party scene, when the main character takes a huge bong rip, and looks up and exhales just as the babe he has a crush on walks through the door—in slow motion.

    Ty Segall, discussing the new JEFF the Brotherhood album We Are The Champions before his Gargoyle show. (Listen to this and imagine it. He’s totally right.)

    Bonus fact: Ty was in the same graduating class as the cast of Laguna Beach, and told me that Kristin Cavallari was the nicest cast member and was unfairly portrayed by the show’s producers. Also that MTV destroyed the last remnants of Laguna Beach’s 60s beatnik history.
