For a decade, Ass Ponys was one of the coolest and strangest bands on the planet, but most people didn’t know that. They were an indie sensation who signed a major deal in 1994, released one incredible album (Electric Rock Music) which cost about 50 grand to make, then a fairly uptight album (The Known Universe) that cost much more to make but sold much less. They were then dropped from A&M Records and made the mostly excellent but unheard Some Stupid With A Flare Gun, which is a pretty high standard of an album for a band on the way down. But, from their name on out, there was never really much that was conventional about this band.
The obvious high point here is “Astronaut”, which would have been a huge hit in a perfect world. From its mention of Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd to the unbelievable catchiness of the chorus, “Astronaut” is why the Ponys were so great. And, like the rest of their best work, the album features weird snapshots of what we think of as unimportant moments in life. The band is loose and playful here, and they even jam things out some. There’s a lot of fun to be had…songs about Scatman Crothers and Frank Langella having extra nipples and robots coming through the corn, all on an album that takes its name from the best line in “Smoke On The Water”. The Ass Ponys are gone, saluted, and never forgotten. [First added to this chart: 04/30/2013]
