Bio:
Poney has been together for about five years. There have been a few
rearrangments. We like to think that we're writing music you haven't heard
before, unless you've heard us. Two EPs out, one independent and one with
Round 13 Records (St. Paul, MN). We're very nearly done with our first full
length, entitled "Seamyth." It's about Samuel Taylor Coleridge's epic, "The
Rime of the Ancient Mariner." We're quite excited for you to listen to it.
"...sonic technicians Poney created what can only be called a full frontal
noise assault. The songs were tight and intense. The emotional power of the
songs came through the wall of sounds that was beyond comparison to metal or
punk rock. Poney sounded like Sonic Youth or the Jesus Lizard, if those
bands took steroids and did 1,000 push ups a day. The crowd went absolutely
crazy..."
~Dino Corvino, The City Pages
"...psychedelic ghost ship grooves, riffs that thrash like hungry sea
serpents, and drumming as thunderous as an antarctic storm..."
