Today, Ty Segall both announces AND releases Harmonizer, his first new album in two years, via Drag City! Harmonizer bursts with transcendent energy as Ty glides smoothly into unexpected territory, right where he likes to find himself. It’s a synthtastic production redesign that finds Ty dialing up a wealth of tightly-controlled beats, thick keyboard textures, guitar, and endless harmonies. This glossy sound makes for some of Ty’s cleanest songs and starkest ideas to date, bracing him as he revisits the lonely days and loathsome nights of the alienated, grown-up-wrong soul.
Co-produced by Cooper Crain, Harmonizer is the first recording to be released from Ty’s just-completed Harmonizer Studios. Cooper’s own journey in rhythm, minimalism and DIY mines the depths around Ty’s peerless vocal attack and never-ending search for unfathomably corrosive guitar sounds. With an eye towards precision, feel and explosive mass, The Freedom Band — Ben Boye, Mikal Cronin, Emmett Kelly, and Charles Moothart — appear all over Harmonizer, but often one at a time. Additionally, Denée Segall co-writes and appears on two tracks.
Ty Segall’s Harmonizer will be available in all physical formats in October.
