Music Review: Virtuosic guitarist Ty Segall finds a new sweet spot on his laid-back ‘Possession’
Much of Ty Segall’s prolific career has been characterized by a sludgy intensity. But his 16th LP, “Possession,” crystalizes a new, less-aggressive era for the indie rocker, The Associated Press’ Krysta Fauria writes in her review. His signature psychedelic sound and distorted guitar solos are still there. But the songs are also restrained and refined. He trades in his additive synths for strings and horns, all while maintaining his singular garage-psych. Fauria says that on “Possession” Segall seems to have found a kind of sweet spot that balances force with restraint in this new phase of his discography.
