It's streaming on the NPR website (for a couple more days until the official release):

loving the fuzz II

I like Mikal Cronin's last two records a lot more than any of this stuff

akm, Wednesday, 21 October 2015 15:35 (eight years ago) link

Hmm... I tried one Mikal Cronin song on Youtube. It was OK I guess, but it didn't sound anything like Fuzz. I was a bit skeptical if I needed a double-album's worth of more Fuzz but I ended up listening all the way through to the NPR stream.

Cronin's debut is excellent, heavy Segall-strafed power-pop. His second was pleasant, but I found the third dull, though I didn't listen to it enough to be fair. He's no Ty.

sounds great.

Interesting production. Kinda new wave Devo doing garage. Melodies might be the downside.we shall see..

nostormo, Thursday, 14 January 2016 22:44 (eight years ago) link

Not really feeling this and I'm a pretty big fan.

never really listened to him before tonight, i got the death by audio 3xLP and it came with a 12" of his first show in new york in 2008. it's rad- i love the context and the vibe- not many people there, crowd chatting a bit, segall says he's psyched to be in new york. dude has a massive discography, what's a good place to start?

flappy bird, Thursday, 24 November 2016 04:12 (seven years ago) link

imo can't go wrong with anything from 2009 to 2014

reverse shark attack, melted, goodbye bread, twins, hair, slaughterhouse, manipulator are all great

the late great, Thursday, 24 November 2016 04:30 (seven years ago) link

Melted's a great starting place, also the Singles comp on Goner, or the live at Aisle 5 LP.

stevie, Thursday, 24 November 2016 10:00 (seven years ago) link

Melted is what got me hooked.

"freedom's goblin" is a terrific album. i wouldn't have even bothered checking it out but a co-worker put it on and now i can't stop listening. it goes so many different and wonderful places! and the songwriting is really stellar. leagues beyond the yelps and hackneyed "psych" tropes i've come to expect from him, john dwyer et al.

His covers album is really good.

louise ck (milo z), Monday, 26 November 2018 22:34 (five years ago) link

I thought the covers album was really boring, like a high school covers band. Ty at his best is brilliant - Freedom's Goblin often is. But Fudge Sandwich felt like a certain period of Robert Pollard stuff, where he's more into making "product" than actual good records (tho the Lennon cover was strong).

New album is devoid of guitars

Greta Van Show Feets BB (milo z), Saturday, 3 August 2019 06:51 (four years ago) link

If I hadn't read about the lack of guitars beforehand, I'm not sure I would have guessed from listening.

Harmonizer is pretty good, I like the glossy glam vibe.

This guy has kind of fallen off the ilx radar a little it seems, new one ("Hello, Hi") is another really good one. Mostly acoustic, pretty chill, but still filled with gems.
