Pollinator is a three piece alternative rock band from Johannesburg, South Africa.
“Missing the Past” is taken from Pollinator’s sophomore album, Fruit.
“Rock ‘n’ roll, a generally derivative genre built on recycled riffs and hooks, is an arena in which it is almost impossible stand out and do something new. “Fruit” ticks all the right rock ‘n’ roll boxes: insane guitar tone, thunderously tight drumming, rock solid bass and undeniably sexy licks (“Expectations” is a proper grinder). The three-part vocals are also to be admired, as are their subversive lyrics. The hook on “Apple Pie” (“I like salad because I’m a woman”) sung by drummer, Tim Edwards, although humorous at first, has a latent air of sadness to it….” – Texx And The City on “Fruit” (https://texxandthecity.com/2017/09/pollinator-catharsis-sa-rock/)
