Ty Segall & White Fence "Hair"

Ty Segall & White Fence - Hair

Street Date, April 24th, 2012, Drag City

Here's a note from Ty Segall about the project:

Hair is the new collaboration from the two minds of Ty Segall and Tim Presley (White Fence), co-written, with shared and solo penned tunes dripping from each side. Presley plays the organ, guitar, percussion, voice, bass, harmony, vibes and faders and so does Ty. A complete collaboration. A new project. This is not the follow up to either members solo releases... it is the first LP of many in the Ty Segall and White Fence (AKA THE HAIR) roster.... so, Let it grow MAAAAANNN....

More about Hair:

Whether you’re walking, rolling and tumbling, flying, driving your car, or sitting still and meditating, wherever you go, Hair you are. You don’t always see the wild mystery that comes with everyday life on this rock, but your connection to the Eternal is always present. You just can’t see it. Today, you’re in luck - up to your frontal eye-lobes in luck. Ty Segall & White Fence have thrown their X-ray vision upon you and see the blood rocking through your veins and all the blood vessels in your brain. They can see them…

Hair it is - to stuff the cracks in your mental chrome dome. Hair for you to stare for awhile. Hair grows like grass beneath your feet, opens up your mind and reflects you in the fun house mirror - spreading past your borderlines, bouncing like rubber, growing and grooving towards the sky (with diamonds). Was it yesterday or yesteryear or is it happening now, on five-second synaptic delay? You were tall, you were high…you went farther than you’ve ever been.

Chanting to and from the dome is your living soundtrack and providing the Hairdressing for your psychic salad are Ty Segall and White Fence sitter Tim Presley with Sean Presley and Mikael Cronin along on the carpet ride. It unrolls from within them and in between them, and electricity takes many forms, from poppy lunges to acoustic strolls to freak-downs at end of the side. Hair gets tangled deep in clouds of guitars and drums and counter-riffs and percussion, then pressed flat with harmony vocals and compression. Whatever got them through the night, it launches the ship into the stratosphere. And Hair you are again.
