Ty Segall, “My Head Explodes” from Goodbye, Bread
In preparation for dropping my late, late, - later than Andrewtsks’s - bestuv 2011 list, I’m giving a lotta stuff one last listen. I don’t like the little sped-up outro on this track, but Ty’s latest good album is a good example of my problem with 2011: there’s a lotta stuff worthy of the back end of a top 10, but not much orb-shattering material. Prolly this just speaks to my narrow tastes: if certain personages of a certain Louisville-Chicago axis don’t make records, my privates don’t quake.
Also, my (re)turn to KBD, garage and otherwise fuzzed-to-fuck punk has been so severe as to make the whole world seem same-y. Appropriately pissy, but same-y.
