They're heavy-rock lifers and three California-bred dudes who have been refining their riffs and getting weird together since high school. (which wasn't that long ago, actually)
Fuzz was formed in/around 2011 as a collaboration between Segall and Moothart, but its only within the last year that the pair had sufficient time to guide the band out of side-project limbo and into a recording studio. Since then, they have released two singles, This Time I Got a Reason (on Trouble In Mind) and Sleigh Ride (on In the Red). Around the time of the second single, Cosio joined on bass.
They are not dabblers or dilettantes. Fuzz have flipped through used bins, hard drives, and record collections of the world, seeking out the finest weirdo cuts. The band's self-titled debut LP, Fuzz, which was recorded by Chris Woodhouse (Thee Oh Sees, The Intelligence), dives deep, drawing inspiration from the more esoteric reaches of heavy metal pre-history. There are Sabbath and Hendrix nods, obviously, but on Sleigh Bells you might also catch a whiff of UK progressive blues business like The Groundhogs, particularly when the song quits its 10/4-time intro and reboots into full bore choogle. Maybe you'll even glimpse the ghost of Australian guitar-legend/sharpie guru Lobby Lloyde sniffing around Raise.
The mood is not light. The songs project a state of perpetual paranoia and eroding mental health.
And as it should be, you know? It's a record for the burners.

Let It Live
Fuzz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm standing here all alone
Feel your voice touch my fingertips
Diggin' for my bones
Hear it
Listen to it walk away
Feel it
Watchin' all the people walkin'
I wonder if they feel alone
See their feet touch the emptiness
I can't hear it at all
Hear it
Listen to it walk away
Feel it
Let it live in yesterday
In Fuzz's song "Let It Live," the singer is talking to someone over the phone and feeling lonely while doing so. He feels the other person’s voice "touching his fingertips" and digging through his bones, which could be interpreted as deepening his emotions. The singer observes people walking around him and wonders if they too feel as alone as he does. He notices that their footsteps seem to be touching emptiness, which could mean that they are going through life without any real purpose. The main idea of the song seems to be accepting the past and allowing it to exist without trying to hold onto it, which is represented by "letting it live in yesterday."
The lyrics are quite poetic and metaphorical, which is something Fuzz is known for. His use of imagery and symbolism creates a vibe of introspection and self-reflection. The song seems to be about longing for human connection and reminds us that even though we are surrounded by people, we can still feel lonely, lost and disconnected from the world. The tempo and rhythm of the song complement the lyrics giving it a sense of melancholy that makes you feel the weight of the message.
