Burnin’ rubber and breaking the sound barrier, Ty and his band are blitzing through the end times in an armored vehicle of destruction: that is, Chrome, their new album done up DIRTY & due out August 28. Today, Ty & co. unleash a new single, “Running to Nowhere,” with new tour stops in Argentina, Chile, and Brazil mapped out for 2026.
Uncorking rock moods, shades and existential basement raves, “Running to Nowhere” is a combo of hammering, haunted fuzz verses with a light refrain of Blue Öyster Cult-era paranoia guitar & dreamy acoustic piano. A thirst for psychedelic mischief manifests in twists of claustrophobia-inducing dry vocal reverbs and textured guitar interplay throughout, head-twisting us in a magical other reality colored gunmetal grim. Here, “Now we’re nowhere!” is despair AND defiance!
Chrome was a job for the full band: that’s Ty, Ben Boye, Evan Burrows, Mikal Cronin, and Emmett Kelly. Sensing a cataclysmic sound on the songwriting horizon, Ty and the guys co-wrote half the songs together (Matt Yoka and Denée Segall wrote some parts, too), turning up the heat at every rehearsal for a solid month before hitting record. All mixed immediate and flexible, colorful and clean, spicy-sweet, with Ty’s vocals of vinegar and sand, wine and grains of silver nitrate, pointing the way. That’s Chrome.
Get Chrome in your dome on August 28, 2026, with a limited new EP “Love Fuzzz” available the same day. Tickets for Ty Segall’s 2026 tour dates are on sale now.
