Psychedelic rocker Ty Segall went full-kook with the music video for the title track from his new album, Harmonizer. It follows the similarly trippy video for his last single, “Feel Good.”
In the video, a potato sings in a microphone next to an egg, an apple, a hammer, and a cactus appear on top of a white, wooden cube. A mustached man gives himself a haircut and a sex doll is fed mashed potatoes with gravy. It all forms a strange harmony — all these objects piled around the white cube — that collides with masked people smashing the objects in a way that mirrors the unnerving, thrashing rush of electronic sounds.
Segall surprise-released Harmonizer digitally in August. The physical release is set for October. The album features musician, Denée — who co-wrote two tracks — and the Freedom Band. Segall and the Freedom Band began their North American tour this month.
