61. Pond - pond

While the major labels were signing bands like 'War Babies' Sub-Pop was cleverly not 'labeling' itself as just a grunge label - I think that they were just signing bands they liked and this release by Pond hints at how diverse the label would eventually become. The album never becomes predictable, but the vocals do, and are just somewhat weak and keep the album from really being something memorable...released 1993.
