(1997)"Pony Express Record" is a 1994 album by the
Washington, D.C. -based post-hardcore groupShudder to Think . It was their first album to be recorded forEpic records . Although switching to a major label from the independentDischord records shocked and alienated some fans of the group, Pony Express Record proved to be a challenging release, mixing musical styles as diverse as jazz, art-rock, glam, post-punk, folk and metal and it is also regarded as one of the most underrated albums of the 90s, [cite web
