Listening Station: Ponytail Ties Up Our Stereo
A Baltimore-based tipster slipped us Kamehameha, the debut album by Charm City’s Ponytail, last night, and we’re kind of hooked on its 26 minutes of top-to-bottom spazzing out; like Deerhoof, they’ve got thick, sheeny guitars that burst into flurries of top-speed riffing, but vocalist Molly Siegel’s post-verbal outbursts, which recall animals from all over the Wild Kingdom, are what really sends this record over the edge for us.
