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 Coravino, The City Pages .. .. "...psychedelic ghost ship grooves, riffs that thrash like hungry sea serpents, and drumming as thunderous as an antarctic storm..." .. .. ~VolumeOne

Influences
FIGHT HOMOGENIZED MUSIC! .. .. Clutch, Botch, Mastodon, Cave In, Smashing Pumpkins, Mars Volta, The Hellacopters, Genghis Tron, Orange Goblin, High on Fire, Zozobra, Thrice... .. .. Music that moves. We are influenced by the unnamed spaces between genres, those points of transition where you don't have a word for the music. Metal, rock, punk, prog, alternative...these words are shackles. Come to a show, see what we mean.
