Shotty's Classic Series #1:

Brilliant second track from Polvo's sophomore album, Today's Active Lifestyles (1993). Melds angular hooks like it's no one's business!

Those tigers heads look like the horned demon thing in the magazines Jehovah Witnesses hand out...

they didnt invent it at all. Neither did slint, or big black or bastro... but maybe these guys did: v=5mBdxxXNPf0 especially the chord progression around 1:15+ repeated at 2:13+ -- totally Polvoesque. Even the slow segments. Or Polvo is Red Crayola-esque :) Hell their late 60's track Hurricane Fighterplane is kinda post-punky (Wire style, not polvo). Even segments of early Rush are proto-mathrock. Check out the machine-gun riff segment of Fountain of Lamneth on 1974's Caress of Steel.

which tracks?

augmented 5ths 7ths, minor chords, mild disonnance in the sound. stuff that makes it impossible to label as pop and relegate it to being crappy music :)

I think it's when the riffs have notes that are all over the guitar, like one note is much higher than the one before it, and so on

@bemeseed I don't get this. Why did they do that? And yes, that album is amazing.

Polvo invents math rock, then everyone immediately destroys it with a total lack of melody.

@Koettnylle Yeah, the one without the tigers ain't as good.

This cover came in two versions, so extra credit to you for putting up the more awesome one with the horned tiger creatures!
