Polvo - In Prism (Reissue)
Both LPs pressed 45RPM in gatefold jacket+ white paper sleeves + LP3 insert for full album download. Yellow vinyl is for Indies only. It
might be too soon to declare In Prism the best Polvo record ever…but it might be okay by the time you’re done reading this. ...Only at
this point in life would Polvo be so assured, so casually stormy and intensely calm, graceful and free with their power without setting
aside anything that made them the rock artists they were during their first, unblemished run. There is not a thing on In Prism that they
aren’t doing better than before: the sidewinder guitars and the mighty roar and the moody atmospheres and the psychedelic
explosiveness; the writing, the singing, the words you can understand, the ones you can’t. Polvo spent 1990–98 giving voice to a
chorus of discrete rock & roll ideas that really hadn’t been heard before. And while there was nothing wrong before, it’s now so much
more right—perhaps because after ten years none of the peripheral stuff matters anymore. Now is for Polvo, and Polvo is for now. In
Prism is the best Polvo record even before you get to the majestic “A Link in the Chain,” serene and tempestuous like few other things
you’ll hear. The album was recorded with Brian Paulson and Polvo has never sounded better. Don’t you agree? Mike Wolf, NYC
