Pony, a trio from New York led by Dallas Crowe, briefly resurrected the deranged punk spirit of the Minutemen. The EP 14" (Ah Um Fidelity, 1993) showcases the reckless harmonies of Soft Johnny, Michael and Driving Miss Danger. The album Cosmovalidator (Homestead, 1994) reveals the influences of Captain Beefheart and Pixies.

Recorded right after the debut album, El Dorado (Homestead, 1997) will come out only two years later. This Order and Robotussin are more discordant than the early tracks and renege most of the punk animosity for a deeper study of sound.
