One of the greatest, released in 1990, produced by Steve Albini, featuring the iconic Vaughan Oliver artwork and the original lineup of Kim Deal, Tanya Donelly, Carrie Bradley, Josephine Wiggs and Britt Walford of Slint.
Perhaps it's the economy of form and function - but Pod has aged so well - the original lineup (including Slint's Britt Walford on drums) providing a fraught energy that's both disposable and completely flawless.
Ultimately, Pod is anything but disposable - in some respects it really is a unique example of loose-limbed perfection, recorded in just a week, with producer Steve Albini not allowing the band to record more than two takes of any of its tracks, arguments would ensue, then subside, everything done in a whirlwind of creative madness that probably sounded like a right old mess at the time.
Somehow - despite all this - there isn't a single note out of place, every aesthetic judgement was definitively the best possible one - you just couldn't change anything about the album to make it any better. Exactly 30 mins long, you could - and we have - sat through it several times in a row and still found every thrill, peak and valley just as exhilarating as the first time. Unlike the vast majority of albums you’ll have heard in yr life - there are basically no diminishing returns with this one.
