Playing many great venues in LA with bands like the DEEP EYNDE. Their debut album was produced by the legendary Barry Galvin (Christian Death/Mephisto Walz) and provides a wide sample of PINS AND NEEDLES artistic diversity. This is not the typical debut with every song sounding the same PINS AND NEEDLES have crafted a slew of original songs each having their own character but still confined in that unique sound that is PINS AND NEEDLES. PINS AND NEEDLES have received good reviews from the likes of Mick Mercer and Thomas Thyssen. Mick endorses this as a quality debut. "[The first track on the album] 'Specimen' is superb and wouldn't be too far behind Redemption's 'Disillusion' as a contender for Goth song of the year." "Pins & Needles should be more than proud of themselves. Their debut is one of the finest in months, if not years. It's almost impossible to pigeonhole their sounds, and this is definitely one of the biggest compliments imaginable. A great effort, touched by the hands of the god of flanger guitars, Mister Bari-Bari, of Mephisto Walz-fame!" THOMAS THYSSEN (PAGAN LOVE SONGS)
