The newest preview from Segall’s forthcoming Drag City double-drop swaps classic-rock harmonies for a darker, riff-driven charge.
Ty Segall will release a new full-length album, Chrome, and the two-song EP Love Fuzzz on August 28 through Drag City. The twin release was announced last month alongside lead single “Black Paint,” a track that leaned into anthemic classic rock with stacked harmonies.
Today’s follow-up, “Running To Nowhere,” moves in the opposite direction. It’s built on a churning low-end riff, the kind that feels less like a groove and more like an undercurrent pulling the song forward. Segall’s voice doesn’t ride the arrangement so much as howl through it, melodic but unpolished, always on the edge of breaking. There’s a brief turn toward something prettier in the track’s middle, but the heaviness never fully lifts.
Segall’s output remains steady, often arriving in bursts like this one. The contrast between the two singles suggests Chrome might be more varied than its hard edge implies, while the EP stands as its own compact statement. Both will land in late summer, adding another pair of entries to a catalog that rarely pauses for reflection.
