mike powell I saw them in 1991 or 1992 opening for some band in Wash. DC. Had never heard of Autoclave before and was thoroughly blown away. 30 years later still am.

😉 #yeah--

This band is really good. The drums are what makes it impressive, suggestive, even! 😉 Favorite track: I'll Take You Down.

brodydjohnson It's amazing to me that such a short-lived band could produce a collection of songs that holds up so well 30+ years later. If you saw them live, I'm envious! I love every track. Favorite track: I'll Take You Down.

opockets This is a dream come true. The last of the Timony catalog on vinyl!!! Mary Timony is a genius and this is where it all began. Favorite track: Dr. Seuss.

about

In 2019 Dischord released Autoclave’s discography on a single LP for the first time ever. This 12” combined the band’s 7” and 10” singles as well as two extra demo tracks. The music was remastered from the original tapes by TJ Lipple and cut for vinyl by Bob Weston at CMS.

Christina Billotte and Melissa Berkoff initially began playing together in a Washington, D.C. band called Hazmat in 1989, but then joined up with Nikki Chapman and Mary Timony to form Autoclave. The group lasted for one year and played only a handful of shows.

In 1991, the quartet released a three-song 7" on the "DisKord" label -- a joint effort between Dischord and Olympia, Washington's K Records. The band's second release was a posthumous 10" that came out via Billotte's label, Mira Records.

Following Autoclave’s dissolution, Billotte would go on to perform in Slant 6, Quix-o-tic, and The Casual Dots. Timony formed the bands Helium and Ex Hex in addition to releasing four records under her own name.
