7 KING TUFF PSYCHO STAR

With some help from Ty Segall, Kyle Thomas has augmented his garage-rock with a funkier, synthier sound on his latest LP

JP: Kyle’s doing dates with Father John Misty soon – it’s just a matter of more people getting the opportunity to see and hear what he does. His previous albums had more of an overtly rockist feel. Awesome records, but this is taking the sound and expanding it. Cosmic funk? That description could turn way more people off than turn them on, but I get what you’re saying!
