Fuzz

1. Fuzz is the loud. psychedelic-minded power chord rock project of Ty Segall and Charlie Moonheart. Play it loud enough, and it should bring to mind the sounds of the late 60s and early 70s — think of Jimi Hendrix, and the like. “This Time I Got a Reason” is the A-side to the “This Time I Got a Reason” 7” that Chicago-based label, Trouble in MInd Records recently released. http://troubleinmindrecs.com/bands/fuzz.html
