Ah the refreshing sound of hard and heavy music in the morning. Ty Segall, you have once again surpassed all expectations with this album. With instrumentals resembling Black Sabbath, Fuzz’s new self titles album seriously kills it. 

Fuzz is the newest band formed by USF’s own alumni Ty Segall. As Ty rips it on the drums and lead vocals, Charlie Mootheart wails on the guitar and 

In all honesty, before the release of this album I was literally counting down the days until it hit the shelves. I had heard the singles they had put out in anticipation for the album release but the album itself blew all of those out of the water. This album has a lot less fuzz and noisy distortion than typical Ty and a lot more intricate instrumental riffs that dominate each song. You’ve got the slower, more simplistic songs like “What’s in My Head” that pulsates through your body during each chorus and then the more fast paced in your face songs like “Preacher” that tears through your eardrums and makes you crave more. 

I think what really draws me in so much about this album is the metal and un-metal qualities. I have always been a big fan of metal instrumentals due to their complexity and just overall insane musicianship but the singer’s voices have always made metal difficult for me to listen to. With the exception of Black Sabbath, I’ve been drawn away due to the screaming and wailing that’s usually associated with the genre. But Fuzz takes these insane instrumentals and compliments them with Ty’s garage rock vocals, giving me exactly what I was always missing with metal. 

The actual LP itself is a piece of art as well. This absolutely epic dragon sits upon a colorfully drawn “fuzz” floating through the night sky. You can see traces of day and night within the dragons multicolored body as he slyly smiles at you with a halo on top of its head. The LP in a beautiful clear color that allows you to look straight through to the other side. In other words, it’s an album worth owning a physical copy of.
