In the relatively short time that Tim Presley has been releasing music under the White Fence moniker, he’s had a pretty steady output to say the least. Last year alone saw a double album on Woodsist and a collaborative album with fellow garage rock superstar Ty Segall. He doesn’t seem to be slowing down for 2013.
On April 9 we’ll get another serving of Presley’s particular brand of psychedelic garage rock with the release of Cyclops Reap. Out on Castle Face Records, the album was originally intended to be a compilation of songs that didn’t make the first four White Fence records. However, Presley changed his mind. “as i was putting [the collection] together, there were more coming,” he says in a press release, “so, instead of a retrospective i said ‘Fuck It,’ might as well use the most current songs of the bunch.”
You can listen to “Pink Gorilla” from the album here:
