Their 2024 debut album Magnet Factory and live performances have been met with critical acclaim. PRS sets include a mixture of Pylon favorites mixed with the new material. Uncut Magazine awarded the album an 8/10 rating, saying “Magnet Factory’ finds the quartet in scintillating form, shifting smartly between angular noise-pop and nervy punk-funk, topped with Hay’s spiky vocals… a terrific debut from American post-punk veterans.” The Associated Press said, “...Briscoe Hay remains a distinctive, boundary-defying songwriter… Amid the algorithm-driven din that now fills earbuds, Magnet Factory sounds as fresh as Pylon first did…the band is an irresistible blend of simplicity and synchronicity, the music both edgy and therapeutic.” Rolling Stone Magazine noted of their performance at SXSW 2024 “…Pylon Reenactment Society dodges nostalgia partially because Pylon was hardwired for the future…” Pop Matters wrote, “Pylon Reenactment Society has crafted an album that is fresh, fierce, bright and dynamic.” Pylon Reenactment Society continues to support the release of ‘Magnet Factory’ by performing select U.S. dates. Currently they are working on new material. Stay in the loop by visiting: WEB https://pylonreenactmentsociety.com RICHARD BARONE Richard Barone is a recording artist, performer, producer, and author.
