PINS, the Manchester quintet, have teased a future collaboration with Iggy Pop, something that coupled with the deep knowledge of the extensive artistry that underpins everything the band does has got us salivating. The Manchester band PINS got Iggy Pop to feature on a new track that’ll be featured on their forthcoming EP, “Bad Thing”, its the follow-up to their 2015 full-length album “Wild Nights”. The band explained that they got him to record his spoken word part by asking via e-mail through their booking agent, who happened to be friends with Iggy’s manager.
Iggy had to say this about the collab. “I’ve got a session with a bunch of girls from Manchester called PINS, they sent me a good song and they’re looking for a narration in it, and I liked their music and their picture, so I’m doing that.” PINS explain: “‘Aggrophobe’ is the wild card from our EP. The video was filmed partly at the director’s studio in Ancoats and partly at one of our favourite pubs on Oldham Street called Gulliver’s. We we’re backstage waiting to go on to play a show, whilst the other acts are doing their thing.”
