The Traditional Fools – The Traditional Fools (In the Red)

If you’re looking for old-school lo-fi surf-noise-garage-punk, look no further than The Traditional Fools.  Ty Segall’s ambitious 2008 album is getting a re-release in 2013, and thank goodness for it! This album is sick. It rocks hard and fast.  The songs are very very short (1-2 mins) and high-energy. Straight up California garage music.  It’s glorious. Hooks you on the first song and never lets go.  A sound like this is rare nowadays.  -Austin Lyons, 3/12/13
