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.
2. FuzZ is the first new artist signed to Spectrophonic Sound, the label owned and ran by Squeak E. Clean, music producer and one half of the critically-acclaimed group N.A.S.A. Sparkle Vision is a 23-minute collection of delightfully evil, and strangely sparkly music, meshing distorted funk riffs with 80’s inspired synthesis and heavy psychedelic interludes.
3. A band made up of Rivers Cuomo and Patrick Wilson (both of Weezer). Later became known as the 60 Wrong Sausages.
4. A Japanese band with one album, "Message"

Know how you taste
Don't try to taint me
Or treat me like them niggas that you ain't need
Yeah he treat you better but I get you wetter
Could show you the ropes but the game is sold separate
I'll have your legs shaking without any effort
Guess if you knew better then you would do
Can he make you cum back to back every time
Does he even know your sign
Do you let him hit it from behind
If I hit it once it's always mine
Let me cater to you cus baby this is your day
You been with him for a while forgot how good that you taste
Finna pull up where you stay
Let me cater to you this nigga been in the way
Y'all been at it for a while
Finna pull up where you stay
You've held too much baggage from our past
You tweetin' that your next gone be your last
You blocked me but be lurking through these apps
He ain't got the juice like
Wait
Do he even know your sign
Can I hit it from behind
If I call will you decline
If I hit it once it's always mine
Let me cater to you cus baby this is your day
You been with him for a while forgot how good that you taste
Finna pull up where you stay
Let me cater to you this nigga been in the way
Y'all been at it for a while
Finna pull up where you stay
The lyrics to Fuzz's song II speak about a man who knows a woman intimately and is tempting her with his sexual prowess. He acknowledges that there may be another man who treats her better, but he believes that he can pleasure her in ways that the other man cannot. He seems to be trying to lure her away from her current partner by insisting that he can provide her with more satisfying experiences. He brags that he can make her legs shake with little effort, and questions whether the other man can make her climax back-to-back every time. At the same time, he wonders if the woman truly knows herself and her desires.
The lyrics revolve around the idea of sexual desire and exploration. The man in the song is confident in his own abilities to please the woman, and believes that he can give her what she truly wants. However, there is also an underlying sense of insecurity and competition with the other man. The woman is put in the position of having to decide what she wants and whether her current partner is truly fulfilling her needs.
Overall, the lyrics to Fuzz's song II are provocative and suggestive, exploring the dynamic between two people and the power dynamics at play in a sexual relationship.

Dead sage fill my page
words of age that set the stage
cats eyes set their sights
twisted skies are on the riseIn the valleys of the moon
where the sand stands still
watching the fathers watch
their rain burn from the hillFree spech out my teeth
lie beneath the burning wreath
hot coal melted soul
pays the toll and breaks the moldFrom these valleys we will bloom
sands will boil through
and leave the watchers watching
burning from the hill

I'm a 65 year old who thought I had heard it all...I feel that I am qualified to say...Ty Segall is an absolute genius...NO ONE in the history of modern rock music has ever operated at this level. Ty and company don't need no stinking corporate label to rock! Simply the most brilliant musician on the planet !

@bradquery779
im an old timer also.... i havent heard anything this good in a long long time...
@ChrisJohnson-ld3wq
I really really love his stuff.. it's amazing.. As soon as I heard the Ty Rex Album I knew he was a great.. Is he the reincarnation of Marc Bolan? Probably not. Is he as genius, seminal, enigmatic and important for Rock and Roll? Probably.. But who cares.. TURN IT UP TO 11
@luckymanmusic
Every song sounds like a greasy spell is being cast. Love it!
@ripseshrecords5350
Great follow up album! I like their vocal approach more on this one. This band and Ty Segall are still just so criminally underrated!
@bowleggedbear
This album breathes fire and electricity into my soul. I would be OK blindly removing whole shelves out of my music collection for this one.
@nathanielhoyt9020
This is the greatest album I have heard in a long time, listening beginning to end. It puts a perma-grin on my face.
