Ty Segall - Possession (2025)
Possession finds Ty Segall embracing a more polished, back-to-basics sound: warm glam rock riffs, lush orchestration, and catchy power-pop melodies. The title track delivers a vintage-inspired rock epic, blending horns, strings, and garage-guitar swagger. Songs like “Shoplifter” and “Fantastic Tomb” return Segall to narrative songwriting, depicting morally complex characters over layered instrumentation. While some moments feel less raw than his lo-fi past, the album’s clarity and cohesion mark a creative high point. As Segall enters his 16th LP cycle, Possession balances exuberant storytelling with refined musical depth—his strongest, most assured statement in years.
