 "Glenn is a fixed gaze on portions of space, a dark examination within oneself; it is anger, turmoil, a repressed sense of loss."

 "Rhoda breaks through with a catastrophic outburst, a real incapacity to communicate, closing the record with a nervous, grating feedback that marks death and rebirth."

Slint EP captures the band’s transition from post-hardcore roots towards post-rock minimalism. Featuring two intense instrumental tracks, Glenn and Rhoda, the EP explores themes of internal turmoil and communication breakdown. Released posthumously in 1994, it stands as a critical bridge leading to their landmark album Spiderland. The record’s austere presentation and complex emotional depth mark a unique moment in alternative music. Listen to Slint EP to experience the raw, minimalist roots of post-rock and explore the emotions behind this cult classic.

 Their music is a sardonic grin etched on their faces, filled with the light-hearted irony of those who wish to mock (both themselves and others).

 After this first album, the group disbanded, and its three members have not reappeared even in other projects.

The Union of a Man and a Woman’s only album offers a distinct form of reckless, caustic post-punk that stands apart from contemporaries. Their ironic and playful approach creates chaotic, almost random compositions that challenge traditional song structures. Despite the album’s intensity and innovation, the band disbanded soon after, leaving no subsequent works or projects. Their mysterious disappearance adds a layer of mystique to this unique debut. Discover the wild post-punk chaos of The Union of a Man & a Woman's sole album—listen now and explore a fearless sonic journey.

 Their style is deliberately ungrammatical, as if they were trying to forget basic technique in order to fly freely with their imagination.

 A full five for a group that has made its expressive freedom the starting point for creating a surprising and innovative rock.

Polvo's album Today’s Active Lifestyles advances their experimental approach with bold dissonances and complex song structures. The guitars dominate with eccentric harmonies, supported by defined production from Bob Weston. Tracks range from chaotic and abstract to visceral and cosmic, showcasing the band's innovative take on rock. The album is celebrated for its originality and expressive freedom. Discover the inventive sounds of Polvo’s Today’s Active Lifestyles—listen now and experience a unique experimental rock journey!

 The guitars of Ash Bowie and Dave Brylawski stand out, capable of sounding tense and nervous (but never angry), as well as getting lost in more expansive chords that recall something of the ’60s psychedelia.

 Despite this being a great debut, Polvo will further refine themselves with subsequent releases, where their sound will become even more personal.

Polvo's 1992 debut album Cor-Crane Secret blends intricate guitar textures with unconventional song structures and lo-fi production. The guitars of Ash Bowie and Dave Brylawski create a tense yet melodic sound that nods to '60s psychedelia. The rhythm section supports fluidly while vocals remain distant and melodic, reminiscent of My Bloody Valentine. Though the production is slightly lo-fi, the record is a standout indie rock release with unique oriental influences and a strong identity distinct from peers. Dive into Polvo's groundbreaking debut and experience the roots of indie rock innovation—listen to Cor-Crane Secret today!
