Distorted Pony - Punishment Room


Delving back into the Noise rock aficionado, 1986 saw the rise of Distorted Pony, the release of this LP came about in 1992, produced by Steve Albini (Big Black, Shellac). Reminiscent of Big Black with some Industrial noisyness thrown in for good measure, this Texas outfit throw out a great debut LP, on BOMP! records, out of only two made before their disbandment in '92. Between the great noise and angst is a anthemic foundation that emerges in some songs, such as "Gutbug", a great album all round, like My Bloody Valentine pissed on Stella stumbling through the door after a bad day at work.

"I wanna boyfriend just like you, I wanna get fucked, just like you."
