Goodbye Bread is one of those albums that reminds you why you first fell in love with rock ‘n roll.

Goodbye Bread is filled with such rich, breathtaking moments, and Segall, who plays every instrument here, sounds as though he's savoring every part of process.

Even with a diversity deficiency here, you have to admit that this is album is noteworthy.

La primera vez que escuché Goodbye Bread fue de lo mejor, y de los primeros pensamientos que tuve hacia este álbum y en esa canción en específico fue que Ty Segall no estaba intentando impresionar a nadie, solo decir la verdad con una calma que te atraviesa.

This is one of the albums that I think of when I hear "garage rock". This album hosts a beautiful lo-fi mix with a sharp, poignant guitar. The pace of tracks change between tracks while still hosting the same amazing qualities that make it a great album in the first place. There are a couple tracks that throw me off, but don't let those tracks dismiss the endearing qualities of this essential garage rock album.
