Thee Oh Sees + The Intelligence + Night Beats

San Francisco's reputation for scuzzed-out garage rock rests largely on the work of two acts: Ty Segall and this quartet led by John Dwyer. After years of building their reputation on riotous live shows and a slew of lo-fi recordings, Thee Oh Sees finally went hi-fi on last year's Putrifiers II album, earning themselves a deserved place in many best-of-2012 lists.
