Wollongong’s The Pinheads have dropped a new track called ‘Wildfire’, and yes, just as you guessed, it is wild and it is on fire!
“The Pinnies” are seven mates, who decided over a couple of games of bowling and a shared music taste, who happen to “accidentally” form a band in the latter half of 2013.
Getting hold of what they call “an assortment of shitty instruments and strange recording equipment”, they set up a makeshift studio hidden deep in the swampy hinterlands of the South Coast of NSW – a move that eventually cultimated in their 2015 EP ‘I Wanna Be A Girl’.
Whilst taking root in a fusion of influences – Punk, rockabilly, the British musical invasion of the 60s – The Pinheads aren’t a revivalist band, shock rock, nor any other thing an outsider could adequately dissect; “We’re a group of outcasts/reprobates banding together to let it all out”.
