In at number 12 in The Punk Site‘s 2019 top 20 is Tio Rico‘s debut full length “Shit Show Pony“, we wrote “it is a raw and powerful piece of work that distils the energy of the live experience. It is also under-produced in that it’s not layers and layers of polished sound. For the most part it’s the trademark driving, growling bass/high-energy guitar riffing/thunderous drums and vocals three-piece methodology… Ten brutally short portions of speeding, feedback-drenched, exhilarating grunge that has all the makings of becoming a classic and long overdue debut album. Possibly the most thrilling 24 minutes’ listening you’ll get this year.” “Shit Show Pony” can be streamed and purchased via Horn & Hoof Records here
