Pylon - Pylon Box

New West Records presents Pylon Box, a definitive collection celebrating the influential Athens, Georgia post-punk band Pylon. This comprehensive boxset brings together the band’s two remastered studio albums, Gyrate and Chomp, alongside the 11-track rarities compilation Extra, which includes five previously unreleased studio and live recordings.

Also featured is Razz Tape, Pylon’s first-ever recording: a 13-song unreleased session that predates the band’s iconic debut single “Cool” b/w “Dub”. The set captures the raw energy, angular guitar work, and driving rhythms that cemented Pylon as pioneers of the American post-punk movement.

The collection is complemented by a hardbound, 200-page full-color book, featuring essays and reflections from a remarkable lineup of artists and writers, including members of R.E.M., Gang of Four, Steve Albini, Corin Tucker & Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney, Sonic Youth, Interpol, B-52’s, Bradford Cox of Deerhunter, Mission of Burma, Calvin Johnson of Beat Happening & K Records, Anthony DeCurtis, Chris Stamey of the dB’s, Steve Wynn of The Dream Syndicate, and many more.

Pylon Box is an essential archive for fans of Pylon, post-punk, and the vibrant Athens music scene, offering a deep dive into the band’s groundbreaking work and enduring influence.
