With a sound that blends new wave and post-punk influences, this LP is a must-have for fans of indie music from that era.
Pylon was an American new wave/post-punk band from Athens, Georgia, United States,[1] who were active from 1979 to 1983, 1989 to 1991, and 2004 to 2009. The band consisted of singer Vanessa Briscoe Hay, guitarist Randall Bewley, bassist Michael Lachowski, and drummer Curtis Crowe. They released three studio albums and a number of singles from 1979 to 1990, as well as a live double album in 2016 (recorded on December 1, 1983).
The band's danceable sound, a blend of new wave, post-punk, jangle pop,[2] alternative rock and funk rock,[3] influenced the Athens music scene and the 1980s American pop underground. AllMusic wrote that Pylon's "role as elder statesmen of the alternative rock explosion is unassailable".
