Pylon were a rocky little dance band from Athens G-A, comprising - get this - a singer, a guitarist, a bassist and a drummer. They sounded like no one else, except maybe Gang of Four a little, and none of them, so far as is known, ever played in another band. Since their great Hits compilation now sells for triple its original price, this reissue of their 1980 debut is manna - especially because it leads with the definitive "Cool"/"Dub" single foolishly omitted from said debut and adds a dandy EP. Where are the songs, some naive young people will cavil, thus permitting the beat-wise hipsters at DFA to riposte, "What the fuck you think these are?" Plectrists Randy Bewley and Michael Lachowski's simple lines display untoward rhythm and melody, respectively. Curtis Crowe bangs away so obdurately it's hard to understand why he didn't become rich.

Before Michael Stipe sat on his throne at the 40 Watt in Athens, Georgia, peering out onto the masses and making bad hair choices, Pylon was turning the harder-edged American punk of Black Flag, the Wipers, and the Ramones inside out to create post punk as jangly as it was jagged.
Drawing on the nervous energy of the Talking Heads and the exclamations of Gang of Four that preceded them by a mere two years, the quartet’s debut LP Gyrate is a barn-burning post-punk offering that heralded the new wave underneath the already shallow radars of the time.
Gyrate is full of bouncing grooves and disconnected lyrics, but Randy Bewley’s ringing guitar carries each lyrical motif throughout, giving the album a smooth consistency that would inform R.E.M’s work on Reckoning. In spots the album is almost too cohesive, with little bridge from one guitar line to the other....full text |
