Ep. #1000: Ty Segall

Ty Segall is here (at last!) to discuss Possession, the vibe lights in his recording studio, how the late Steve Albini gave him great advice about studio design and construction and the time they recorded themselves smashing a toilet, starting songs off on the drums and reflecting upon click tracks, demoitis, and studio trickery, connections between his three recent records, his singing voice and writing songs with filmmaker Matt Yoka, the Guns ‘n’ Roses song “Paradise City” and Drag City album bios, working on a soccer stadium riff, future plans, and much more. This episode is dedicated to Steve Albini.
