Super-prolific Ty Segall has released another record: a compilation of T. Rex covers that he put out over the years under the name Ty-Rex. The compilation includes a new version of “20th Century Boy” and is out via Goner Records. NME pointed out how the covers, many produced around 2011–2013, trace Segall’s development as a musician; and SPIN called the record a “glam-rock glitter bomb,” which presumably is a good thing, whatever it means. Stream the album at SPIN Magazine.
