Lyricist: Pylon . Photographer: Michael Lachowski. Though the B-52s had already lit the spark that eventually turned Athens, Georgia into `80s college rock ground zero, it was Pylon who truly established the formerly sleepy southern town as an artistic center and hipster haven. Laced with undeniable hooks, it also includes the band's best-known song, "Crazy," which was famously covered by R.E.M. as the B-side of the "Driver 8" single and later included as the lead-off track on the DEAD LETTER OFFICE rarities compilation. Considering how challenging this music remained decades after its release, CHOMP is surprisingly accessible. Audio Remasterer: Rodney Mills. Kicking off with the throbbing, guitar noise-infused "K" (a strangely unsettling tribute to the board game Scrabble) the record inhabits a murky alternate universe dance party where Gloria Gaynor and Donna Summer's melodic R&B vocals are replaced by lead singer Vanessa Briscoe's Yoko Ono/Patti Smith style growls and yelps, and Studio 54 has set up shop in Andy Warhol's factory. One of only two full-length albums released during the group's original early `80s run (Pylon would eventually disband and re-form a number of times as the members' moods and lifestyles dictated), CHOMP was just as taut, exciting, and spooky as its classic predecessor GYRATE, but benefited from a step-up in production values. Personnel: Curtis Crowe (drums). With an oft-surreal sound that paired the same sort of serpentine, angular instrumental work and emotive, off-kilter vocals characteristic of Television and Gang of Four with a disco-informed rhythmic bounce, Pylon came off like and even weirder, artier, yet somehow less pretentious Talking Heads.
