More live music below, this time from Ty Segall. Williamsburg warehouse space Death By Audio was more than just a venue: it housed a effects pedal company, a record label, and even a workshop for custom arcade cabinets for video games designed by local indie developers. Sadly, it shuttered its doors in 2014, but on August 5th, Famous Class will issue the 3xLP or digital compilation, Start Your Own Fucking Show Space. The line-up is impressive, including live performances from Thee Oh Sees, Dan Deacon, METZ, Future Islands, Protomartyr, and, of course, Ty, just to name a few. Stream Segall's appropriately-titled "Wave Goodbye" below. [Consequence of Sound]

To me, the song became about that interaction between the vocals and the drums." Hear the crack below: [Under the Radar]
