Pony Bones

We recently mentioned that Speedy Ortiz drummer Mike Falcone also plays in a side project, Dead Wives, and it’s since come to our attention that guitarist Matt Robidoux has one too, Pony Bones. While Matt has been known to make some noise in Speedy Ortiz, he really goes all out with it here. Their new EP, Pony Bones II, due out next week (4/29) via Speedy’s old label Exploding In Sound (pre-order), bangs and crashes through lo-fi dissonance and percussive attack. A full stream of the EP makes its premiere in this post, and you can listen below. That’s the artwork (designed by Matt) above.

You can catch Matt with Speedy Ortiz in the NYC-area when they play SUNY Purchase’s Culture Shock this Saturday (4/26) with Modern Baseball, Lil B, Cakes Da Killa and more.
