Ty Segall ce bel homme est de retour et il n’est pas venu seul. Avec « Fantastic Tomb », il nous balance une pépite pop rock et annonce la sortie de « Possession », son prochain album prévu pour le 30 mai 2025 chez Drag City. Une nouvelle qui fait frémir les amplis et les cœurs des fans de garage rock.
« Fantastic Tomb » : un premier extrait garage
Dès les premières secondes, « Fantastic Tomb » annonce la couleur : on oscille entre le pop rock et le garage du fin fond de l’amérique. Ty y pose sa voix avec cette nonchalance maîtrisée qui le caractérise. Les cuivres sont limite hypnotique et ça reste dans la tête. Le solo de guitare à la fin est tout à fait délicieux.
« Possession » : un album coécrit avec Matt Yoka
Ce nouvel opus n’est pas qu’une simple collection de morceaux de Ty Segall en roue libre. « Possession » est le fruit d’une collaboration avec son complice de longue date, Matt Yoka, réalisateur et artiste visuel. Ensemble, ils ont façonné un disque qui s’annonce aussi dense que fascinant
Lyrics ;
« Hello, » he smiled and reached out his hand
« Your troubles, » he said, « I can understand »
Ignored by all those pretty-looking people in suits
In a bar on 10th Street, I drank [?]
Hey, aren’t you sick of the way they look down at you?
It’s time you and I collect our dues
There’s a man who’s worth more than a country could make
And if you come near a good job, I’ll give you half the take
Well, should I do it?
It’s so tempting, and I’ve got nothing to lose
If I had something, yeah, they would just take that too
It’s okay, yeah, I’ll do it
[?] big plan, he’s a driver for that man
The third-story window on the left, the lock was jammed
It opened, no joke, just like he had planned
So we walked downstairs with bags in our hands
There was crystal vase, a good painting, too
And a silver horse that looked right at you
And in the bedroom, no one sleeping there
Just a big, empty bed covered in fur
Crept our way to the cellar door
Once he’d seen the man, kept [?] before
He told me, « Open it up, let’s see where it lies »
But then [?] smiled, then kicked me inside
Locked in the cellar, taken for a ride
But I did it
Feet in the air, then I hit the ground
Seems like these stairs are only good for falling down
But I did it, I did it
What you gonna do when the money’s gone
And everyone you know is dead?
Then you’re standing naked all alone
Just think about the life you [?]
Your brain [?] choke
And your nasty guitar just broke
But I found words on the wall
I read them—it said:
Get along
Get along
Get along, little doe
Get along
The silver horse in your heart
[?] dancing all around your bed
When you tell that thing to leave
It kicks ya upside the head
Yeah, you left me here, but I love you
And I’m doing fine on my own
I take a drink from behind the door
And I sing my favorite song
Get along
Get along
Get along, little doe
Get along
Get along
Get along
Get along, little doe
Get along
I’m the one who’s smiling now
A painting up on the wall
Me and my [?]
In a thousand years
They’ll find me here
My fantastic tomb
Fantastic tomb
Come on, see it
Get along
Get along
Get along, little doe
Get along
Get along
Get along
Get along, little doe
Get along, yeah
