Ty Segall at Dada 1/26/13 Review
Dallas Observer

“I saw Ty Segall I was lifting him into a crowd of people so he could surf along to the sounds of the Jesus and Mary Chain, he had a grin on his face and a air of “fuck it, let’s have fun” around him.

This record comes from the same place as what I’ve done before, but it’s bigger, more filled-out.” Cronin, a fellow Laguna Beach, California native, longtime collaborator and bandmate to Ty Segall (their time together dates back to high school punk outfit Epsilons) is just days out of completing his sophomore solo full-length, an album he recorded over multiple sessions this past fall with Eric “King Riff” Bauer in San Francisco’s Chinatown and mixed at legendary Fantasy Studios in nearby Berkeley…”

Fader

“…the video for “Dreamin,” which takes the numb-to-my-surroundings vibe of the song and uses a visual that is basically just DeMarco in an old-timey wig playing his guitar by the water, driving a car, getting gas, and then (spoiler alert) getting slimed.”

Brooklyn Vegan

“Not busy enough, apparently, releasing 800 records a year under his own name, Ty Segall has formed a new outfit, Fuzz, with Charlie Moonheart who has played in his live band for a while (they were also both in Epsilons).
