FUZZ is Ty Segall (drums/vocals), Charles Moothart (guitar/vocals), and Roland Cosio (bass), three California-bred, heavy-rock lifers who’ve been refining their riffs together since high school. Formed in/around 2011 as a collaboration between Segall and Moothart (who also plays in the Ty Segall Band), it’s only within the last year that the pair had sufficient time to guide the band out of side-project limbo and into a recording studio. Following singles on Trouble In Mind and In The Red, their self-titled debut LP dives deep, drawing inspiration from the more esoteric reaches of heavy metal pre-history. There are Sabbath and Hendrix nods, obviously, but one might also catch a whiff of UK progressive blues business like The Groundhogs or a glimpse of the ghost of Australian guitar-legend/sharpie guru Lobby Lloyde sniffing around. As evident via album tracks, “What’s In My Head” and the previously shared, “Loose Sutures,” the mood is not light. The songs project a state of perpetual paranoia and eroding mental health. And as it should be, you know? It’s a record for the burners.

FUZZ is out October 1st on In The Red and available for pre-order beginning this Sunday night, September 15th at www.intheredrecords.com. FUZZ will kick off their North American tour, playing most cities for the very first time, come October 2nd.  Joining Ty (drums/vocals) and Charles (guitar/vocals) will be Chad Ubovich (bass). A full tour schedule is below.
