From the west coast, out-house rock veterans Ty Segall & Mikal Cronin have released their new record Reverse Shark Attack through Kill Shaman that should tide us over until that (maybe?) new Sic Alps record next year. Dare-I-say the music dragging, cocky rock n’ roll not made for the faint of heart with a pissed, sludgy inaugural track titled “I Wear Black”. Ty Segall has become the curator of all that lo-fi and picks up where Johnny Ramone left off in the best way possible. The LP is up for sale on the Kill Shaman website and as always, take the track below for a test run.

It seems these days the Sic Alps can do no wrong, and this new 7″ LP entitled L. Mansion contains one new song and one cover of the (underrated) Donovan song “Superlungs My Supergirl”. You can order this beautiful pink vinyl from the great vinyl masters at Slumberland. Its hard to imagine that this is their first record in a year, but they haven’t lost their touch for soulful noise-laden garage rock. Currently Sic Alps are prepping to embark on a tour with Sonic Youth and then off to the United Kingdom, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are all to be included.
