Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Album ratings Eucalyptus is a studio album by the post-hardcore band Pitchfork.[1] It was released in 1990 through Nemesis Records and re-released in 2003 by Swami Records.[2] The album is the band's only full-length studio album. It was produced by guitarist John Reis and its artwork was created by singer Rick Froberg, who at the time used the stage name Rick Fork.

The album was originally released as an LP in limited numbers and soon went out of print. In 2003, Reis re-released it in CD format on his record label Swami Records, including the tracks from the band's Saturn Outhouse 7" as well.

Critical reception

Kerrang! wrote that "'Burn Pigs Burn' and 'Placebo' showcase guitarist Reis’ intricate yet aggressive approach to his instrument and shaped the sound of post-hardcore."[3] The Chicago Reader wrote that the album "basically sounds like a raw version of Drive Like Jehu."[4] Trouser Press wrote: "On Eucalyptus, Froberg’s yowling isn’t as deranged and developed as in Jehu, but the map is made. Along with Reis’s overdubbed guitars, the sound compares well with the supersonic mania the two went on to compile in their next outfit."[5]
