Segall, Ty
Freedom's Goblin
Freedom's Goblin is the new Ty Segall album: 19 tracks strong, filling four sides of vinyl nonstop, with an unrestricted sense of coming together to make an album. It wants you to get your head straight - but first, the process will make your head spin! Back in the Twins days, we talked about the schizophrenia of Ty's outlook; today, it's super-dual, with loads of realities all folding back on each other. On any given side, we're tracking five or six full-blown personalities, unconcerned with convention or continuity. So drop the needle - who can say what it'll sound like where it lands? This is Freedom's Goblin - one track engendering, the next one oppressing, violence up in the mix - a look at everything around that Ty used to make the songs. What will you use it for when you listen?
