Garage rock planets align: White Fence trades in bedroom for recording studio, enlists Ty Segall to produce new album, tours North America

·

Another garage-psych album release is actually anti-news; there would be something wrong with the world if one of those scruffy scallywags didn’t release a record every other week. The July 22 release of For the Recently Found Innocent from White Fence (his fifth if you’re counting) is something of a benchmark, though.

Not only is this the first time White Fence has ventured out of his bedroom to lay down his sweet, 60s-tinged fuzz jams, but he’s also roped in other humans to play on the album too, notably in the form of garage renaissance man Ty Segall on production and drums. Also noteworthy: NASA has just confirmed that with the release of For the Recently Found Innocent you can now make a single stack of every garage record recorded in California during the last decade that would be visible from the moon.

Being the chronically hyperactive type that he is, when White Fence isn’t recording he’ll be out on the road somewhere, so, true to form, there’s a string of dates that you can check out below, including a run of shows in October with bizzaro Australian counterparts King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.
