Ty Segall To Release $ingle$ 2 On Drag City
$ingle$ 2 slinks low and flat-out sprints behind the scenes of the Goodbye Bread-Twins-Sleeper trilogy (no it isn’t!), collecting all the now-out-of-print sides that totally work amazingly well together when placed back-to-back-to-back as an album. The super-deadly “Spiders” single is spun again here in full, as well as the epically pop b-sides for “I Can’t Feel It,” “The Hill,” and “Would You Be My Love.” Plus tracks for other labels, like Permanent, Castleface and Famous Class.
Covering The Groundhogs, the Velvets and GG Allin, Ty reps for a good array of punk godheads too. Between the covers and the originals, $ingle$ 2 is also a run through the SF 388 scene circa 2010-2013, with various local heroes like King Riff, Mike Donovan and Ty himself at the board. Sure, there’s the knotting up of all the loose ends for the heavy-breathin’, AADin’ freak-fans – but $ingle$ 2 is really about the rush of getting a single for the a-side and then finding a total sunshine jewel like “Children of Paul” or “Mother Lemonade” on the flip. Or a stone-solid jam on a classic, like the COMPLETE retooling of “Femme Fatale.” Or hearing the Mackay-style sax bleatings of “F**ked Up Motherf**ker,” and it f**king YOU up too! Closing the album with the seemingly unlikely (“Music for a Film”) and the seemingly inevitable (“Pettin the Dog,” a mighty hardcore slamming of the lid).
