It is going to be pretty difficult for Ty Segall to top the year he had in 2012. The California native released three full length albums, a 7-inch and a tour split, appeared on a compilation, and toured as a member of bandmate/collaborator Mikal Cronin's solo effort. Add in the considerable critical praise, along with his late-night debut on Conan, and it comes as no surprise that 2012 was the year Segall grabbed the "King of Lo-fi" crown and ran away with it. Touring on the strength of his most-recent solo release, Twins, Segall brings his special blend of energy and disillusionment back to Denver this Tuesday.
