Though Pallas’s self-titled debut features only seven songs ranging anywhere from one to two minutes-long, it leaves this short-lived band well-remembered. Known as an exceptional live band for over a year before the record’s arrival, Pallas translated the feeling of the group’s live performances to the record perfectly, with each member’s styling so unique that listeners can almost visualize the group playing while the record spins. Each song perfectly blends elements of post-punk, noise, art-rock, and no wave to create a one-of-a-kind sound that’s smooth and melodic, then chaotic, then smooth again. How did they pull that off?
