Ty Segall is so right on about information overload via the internet. I feel sorry for the kids who never got to hold or experience playing an instrument in elementary school or hearing an album in its entirety for the first time or punk rock 45 records were my favorite too. I remember when I was a little kid being completely obsessed with the albums my older sisters would bring home. I would sit in awe for hours being amazed by the artwork on Elton John's Yellow Brick Road album and Alice Cooper's Billion Dollar Babies Album Covers. I played guitar as a teenager and wanted to be just like Joan Jett or Suzi Quatro. Ty Segall is a brilliant musician and I love that he pays homage to all the greats like David Bowie and Marc Bolan. He is definitely one of the coolest musicians today. I hope he doesn't stop rocking and rolling!
Can't say I've ever respected another artist a much as Ty, his music has so much heart and I think that's what drew me in. I first heard him a few years ago when the guitar solo from Goodbye Bread was featured in one of Nicholas Megapolis's early vines and I asked what it was after rewatching the vine too many times haha, and I've been listening to him nearly everyday since! Honest music can suck you in in under 6 seconds. I've been wanting to make music for years but his music was like the missing link in helping me learn what I like best, and I've picked up the guitar and have barely put it down since I started.
gotta love it when you find that right music group or artist that kinda, fills in the blanks for you on what you wana do and shows you that yeah, you can do it too! right on.
Ty segall spit on me. I went to one of his concerts not long ago. I came 4 hours early to his venue at downtwon san franscio. I saw him on the street, I froze and didnt know what to say. But i was at the front of the stage, and he grabbed my hand and spit a mass ball in my hand. i took it and threw it into the crowd. They went fuckin nuts. best mement of my entire life.
"The only goal that I ever wanted to do was to inspire someone to pickup the guitar and make a record themselves" You just did Ty, and that too all the way from Singapore! We're on it! Thanks bringing the N'Roll in Rock back! :)
Such a smart and humble man. This interview really made me appreciate him more. And what he said about John Dwyer - really says a lot, this man is a musical genius and being able to put out so much stuff covering so many different genres really makes him one of the most important music personas of this era, for me at least.
agreed. ill be honest, when i first heard dwyers stuff it threw me off and remember thinking "what the hell.." then awhile later i put it back on and it was like something clicked, it was strange, hadnt happened before like that. the rest is history, thee oh sees put on a DAMN good show
And yes he inspired someone to pick up the guitar and make her own records. I hope that happens to more people. I gave up on my music but listening to ty made me want to start again. He is so cool.
Karla sheryniele DO NOT EVER GIVE UP ON YOUR MUSIC. NEVER. IT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT EXPRESSION IN A PERSON. IF SOMEONE CAN PLAY MUSIC, YOU ARE AN ANGEL ON EARTH, PASSING ALONG A MAJOR MESSAGE. THAT'S IT. PERIOD.
Nirvana got me to play guitar and I've been playing for about a full year now I self taught myself and I stumbled upon Ty Segall and ever since then I fell in love with the fuzz I play a bunch of Ty Segall's records multiple times this man is a musical genius!
He's right - rock & roll has lost its aura, just as literature has... but that is because, as a historical practice (not as something that has always existed, as they tell you in universities) has served its (nonetheless contradictory) legitimizing role. Yes, even rock & roll. And it doesn't make it less great that it comes out of the real material conditions of existence, our mode of production... Etc.
Saw Ty Segal in Chicago during the Manipulator tour and he fucking rocked the house and even played a medley of David Bowie songs which was the icing on the cake. When I hear other people say theres no good music anymore I always tell them you just gotta dig and put some effort to find the good stuff bcs its out there. For example the musicians and bands like Ty Segall, Wavves, the Black Lips, etc etc are really great music. I do agree with Ty saying that there isnt as much of a community feeling as there was in the previous generations. For example the 70's had a great scene around the New York Dolls, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers, The Ramones, The Dead Boys, Talking Heads Television, Sex Pistols, etc etc. But there will always be people who gather together and form some sort of community through a shared appreciation for certain styles of music and other interests. Maybe not as much as the past 60 years or so, but there still are people who share a sense of community through similar musical tastes and other interests.
Interesting Ty brings politics into it; his music generally isn't very political. Regardless, he wears his 60s and 70s influences on his sleeve. Awesome musician who I've really fallen in love with lately.
Well, he had a huge influence on me really getting into guitar. I had heard him before I picked it up, and then I put him on the back burner. Then I got a guitar. Shitty Jackson from the pawn shop for $150. Then I found Ty again and I really started smashing around on that guitar.
music is the new religion, so much is true. It has been a revelation, an inspiration to many and now we live in a dark age of rules and labels fucking musicians over. Thank God for the internet and its glory to reveal independent musicians becoming legends by crawling over the crotches and onto the shoulders of giants.
he's right bout dwyer, but i bet other 50 000 that ty will be a legend as well in fifty years now on! By the way, my dream would be see those guys together in a band... like moothart on guitars, dwyer too, mikal cronin on bass and ty on drums
also, the interviewer don't know who Cronin is ? and another also, I was there! Just out of the frame, met Ty for the first time, the best thing. Excited for his show in June.
The footage which the exerpts are taken from in the video wasn't uploaded in its entirety sadly, but here th-cam.com/video/AA34yB97flo/w-d-xo.html you have the whole show, the very beginning is missing, and it's not the same quality..
SUCKS IT IS A SHAME WHAT HE IS SAYING IS THE MYSTERY IS GONE IN ROCK N ROLL JUST AS THE TRADITIONAL RELIGION WAS FOLLOWED MUSIC WAS TOO AND SO IT WAS FORGOTTEN BECAUSE WE HUMANS SHIT ON EVERYTHING PURE AND BEAUTIFUL IN THIS WORLD MUSIC ART IS FOR ME AND TO ME ITS TO DIE FOR TY KNOWS

He's so right about John Dwyer, he's such a cool guy...
He’s inspired me to learn guitar and make my own record. Thank you for everything Ty.
The guy speaks so much sense.

This was awesome thanks. I am really respecting Try Segall in every interview I watch with him in. Such a cool dude too.
Thanks for having me.
John Dwyer's band Pink and Brown = amazing.
***** Yeah... they have a uniquely noisy sound somewhere between Lightning Bolt and Planets.
And quite the subliminal meaning behind the oddly obscure name.
What would that meaning be?

Ty: Fuck you Mikal, you stole my idea for nipple pants

Haha well the rest of the comments about music theory seemed somewhat legit so I didn't know
